My experience with Melody was outstanding. Melody helped me get exactly what I needed done quickly and efficiently. Despite the circumstances of an ugly custody case, she made the process far easier for me, and my case had a positive outcome. She is professional, reassuring, articulate, effective, strategic and extremely knowledgeable. She went above and beyond for me and I can’t rate her highly enough. Melody King is a stellar attorney and I highly recommend her as anyone's best choice for legal representation.
Attorney King was extremely thorough and diligent in arguing against a Motion to Modify Child Support filed by my ex spouse. She successfully argued against a reduction and I'm very grateful to her for the result.
Melody J. King came into my case well after two plus years of ongoing proceedings and she did it with confidence and excellence. After knowing nothing about my case and custody trial, she took it over with the utmost professional qualities I have seen. In a short period of time, Melody presented my case to the court in the way I needed to give me the desired outcome that I had been pushing toward for over two years. Melody is very professional, caring, easy to communicate with and very knowledgeable regarding how to handle a case for the best outcome possible…there is no doubt in my mind of that.
I hired Melody King to help me with my separation agreement with my husband. It needed to be done quickly as I was re-financing our house and buying him out, and there were a lot of details to make sure were taken care of. Melody was wonderful. She was very thorough and attentive to my needs, during a very trying time. I would certainly recommend her!
Melody combined knowledge and expertise with warmth and empathy. That was very reassuring to me as a first time client, and I expect to have her review and update my trust next.
