I hired Ms. Hatfield for my divorce. She did the paperwork quickly and always answered any questions that I had. Had no issues with the getting the divorce done quickly and efficiently. Would definitely recommend!

Ms. Hatfield got me the absolute best deal for my case. Instead of having to pay over $500 in court fees like my co-defendant, I only had to pay a small fee of $50 for a court ordered CEDMS class. I had even missed one of my court days on accident and Ms. Hatfield showed up on my behalf and negotiated for me the best deal. I would recommend her to anyone needing legal assistance.

I hired Teresa to write up a contract for me. She was very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. She is very detail oriented and went through everything thoroughly. I would highly recommend her. She also went above and beyond to accommodate us in every way she could. Thanks so much for all your help.

If I could give 10 stars, that still would not be enough to acknowledge my appreciation to Teresa’s representation of my recent case. She is super knowledgeable to the laws of Louisiana, affordable, honest to the court expectations, and is a real trooper in the courtroom. Just a little insight, a guilty charge was pending to my name and Teresa fought this for about a year or so before it was recently found to be not true; case converted to a not guilty verdict. I thank God for sending Teresa in my path b/c I honestly could not see getting through this situation without her. I can babble my thoughts here forever, lol, but long story short, if you are looking for an excellent representation to your case, specialty or not, I recommend that you run your situation by Teresa 1st before considering any other options.

I consulted with Mrs Hatfield on two separate occasions. Both times she told me exactly what to do and the probably outcomes of both cases. I hired her to represent me both times and both times she delivered exactly what she said she would. When you are in a times of need and losing is not an option, Mrs Hatfield will lead you through the legal battlefield like no one else can. My family is safe and happy because of what you did for us. Thank you very much Teresa!!

One word comes to mind when I think of Teresa...AMAZING! My son was involved in a horrible accident and Teresa was like a lioness protecting her cub. She gave me a piece of mind and kept me updated every step of the way. Whatever the price may be for her services, believe me SHE IS WORTH THE MONEY! Her fees were stipulated up front, as well as what those fees covered and what they did not. She was always available, and when she wasn't available, she would respond back quickly via email or phone. She challenged the charges pertaining to my son and eventually they were dropped. She gave my son his life back. If you're looking for an attorney that is professional, superlative, and one that gives you a peace of mind, then Teresa is the one you need.

Ms. Hatfield really took her time and listened to everything that I said before taking my case. The consultation was very thorough to the point where I left feeling like we know each other. She's a great lawyer that listens and is not about every dollar she can make. In the courtroom, she makes sure that things are done properly and fair. She's no pushover and isn't afraid to take an aggressive approach if/when needed. Overall I was very satisfied with my service. Although I never want to go through divorce again, I would not hesitate for a second to hire Ms. Hatfield again. To everyone reading this that may need, I encourage you to give Ms. Hatfield a call because you want regret it......
