As father I felt I had no right to my child due to the system. But Terri was not only able to help me get legal joint custody, but she also helped me through my case. It is hard for a father in the legal system and Terri not only made sure we had everything we needed she also fought hard for me. She is more on top of her game than any other lawyer my ex-wife tried to bring into the court. I was at ease knowing she was fighting in my corner. It hard going through a divorce and wondering if you will ever get to have time with you kid. She is straight forward and tells you what you need to do to make you look good. follow her directions and she will not steer you wrong.
I live out of state and was looking for a good attorney in Indiana to get emergency custody of my son who resided in the state of Indiana . No one wanted to helped me because it was Christmas time . Attorney tinder was the right one! She worked on my case the same day ! She filed for an emergency custody , she cared so much about my case that she made sure my son and I were fine together. Very professional in court, and compassionate in person. Attorney Terri Tinder thank you so much for helping me get my son back.
She is very professional and compassionate, and she has fair pricing. We were able to go through our case with minimal stress.
I would definitely recommend Terri. She handled my case with the utmost regard and professionalism. I honestly did not think I would get full custody of my child but Terri was able too. To say that I am pleased with my outcome is sincerely an understatement.
I would highly recommend Terri Tinder to anyone in a heartbeat. She is so compassionate and professional. She went above and beyond for me during my ugly divorce and child custody case. Terri is very thorough and does not take your case with a grain of salt, she has a mission and works so hard on it. I cannot thank this woman enough for her attentiveness. She went to battle for myself and my daughters and won me full custody of both of my girls and got a heinous man out of our lives. I know that she was on my side the whole way and she brought me great comfort during the hard times. She went above and beyond her duties as my lawyer. I am so happy she came into my life.
Before I get into my story, I want to express my tremendous respect and appreciation for Terri right at the beginning. She was a true professional, a courageous fighter and completely empathetic towards the situation my family was thrust into. My ex-wife, who was awarded the home in our divorce, had failed to abide by our divorce decree and refinance the home which was solely in my name. Furthermore, unbeknownst to me, she had failed to pay the mortgage for 6 months which resulted in the home going into foreclosure. Last, but certainly not least, the home was left in horrific condition and ultimately abandoned. I was left with a monumental amount of debt, a mortgage company that had filed suit against me and was staring down a foreclosure for a home I didn’t want and was in need of major repairs. The icing on the cake was that my family and I got to begin this adventure right as we were nearing Christmas. Needless to say, I was panicking. My wife happened to came across Terri's name on AVVO and, given her specialty, I decided to call. Terri spent nearly 45 minutes on the phone with me that day. Hearing the compassion in her voice led to an in-person meeting and from that point, I knew she was the right choice. Not only did Terri successfully take on the mortgage company, she also fought tirelessly to rectify the wrongdoings and damages done by my ex-wife. The latter was ultimately the hardest and most stressful part of the process. Yet, through all of the blood pressure raising situations, Terri never backed down. She never waived a white flag. She fought until things were made right. My family is so thankful that we had Terri in our corner. I honestly don't know if anyone else could have handled the many unique and difficult challenges we faced, nor would have had the patience to stick through the copious amount of craziness we dealt with week in and week out. The aforementioned empathy shined throughout the process. I felt that Terri took my case to heart and made it very personal. I honestly cannot thank her enough. I highly recommend her.
My case started when my son was 5 years old. I won the case but the father kept appealing the case and not paying support. This went on till my son was 18 years old. Terri took my case and was a blessing. It was a long case but in the end we won the case and I got back all my child support that was due to me. If I needed any more legal help again Terri will be there for me.
Because of my complicated case, I had difficulties finding an attorney. After researching attorney Terri Tinder, I knew that she had the skills to conquer in the courtroom! Attorney Tinder was AMAZING! She took the time to listen to me carefully and she studied my case relentlessly! She was extremely thorough in her research and paid attention to every intricate detail of my case. The end result- MY SUCCESS IN THE COURTROOM!!! Thank you attorney Tinder!!!
I had a referral from a friend to see Terry for a pretty dramatic and abrupt end of a mess of an 18 year marriage. I experienced her to be quite friendly but also expedient regarding gathering all the facts of the case. As the case went on and as our rapport grew, I found her to truly care and she just refused to allow the facts of the case to be misrepresented. She was very open to gathering all the needed story-she heard me out completely. Our case eventually went to settlement where she then was compassionate about the end of my marriage which still has some very real love left in it. But alas the co-dependence had to stop; we were growing in different directions and ended up pulling each other apart rather than having a mutually respectful partnership. I say all this to highlight that Terry was 100% committed all the way through. I don't know how I would have gotten through without her. So many other lawyers were sterile and jaded. Having a background as a court advocate really shone through till the end. She was very diligent and knowledgeable, but by far the greatest asset I found in her was the fact that she really cared. I highly recommend her.
Terri did a great job handling my divorce. She quickly returned phone calls, e-mails, and messages. She provided good legal counsel during a difficult time for me and her rates were more than fair. Most importantly, she obtained the result I was looking for. I highly recommend Terri.
