Meri assisted with our adoption from foster-care both kin and non-kin. She was available, kind and explained things so that we could understand them. Her prices were reasonable and she provided clear billing information. As the need has arisen we have used her for other minor issues.
I am a current client of Meri's. We needed help in attempting to obtain custody of our grandson who had lived with us most of his life. While we were not successful in obtaining custody, because of Meri's expertise we are written into the parenting plan and are able to have routine and regular contact with him, that would not have been possible without Meri's help. She has great relationships with other attorney's and judges, which adds to her effectiveness. She is kind, realistic and concerned about what is best for the child. Without Meri's help, I would have limited if any contact with this little boy.
