“We used Mr. Cross for a custody and visitation hearing and would absolutely recommend him to others. He was thorough through all pretrial prep and cool and collected in the court room. We walked out with an order very closely resembling what I sought to start with – so we’re VERY pleased and relieved with the outcome. Definitely would recommend him to others!”

“I highly recommend Daniel Mowry! He has been nothing but knowledgeable and helpful for more than a year now. Mr. Mowry represented me through a conflict divorce, custody case, child support arrears court, and debt settlement. I’m a domestic violence survivor and he is very good at seeing through tactics of others in that area. He has answered my desperate emails, even on holidays and weekends. I am forever grateful for this office and services I have received.“

“Very professional. Handled my case with integrity. Very thorough.“
