  My girlfriend and I retained the services of Shirley Sutherland’s law firm approximately eight months ago after she experienced ongoing issues with the father of her daughter. At the time, there was no formal custody order in place, which led to significant instability. The father frequently kept the child beyond agreed-upon times, failed to provide any financial support, and was not employed. Additionally, he had received a second DWI, with one incident occurring on the very day he was returning the child. His communication was often verbally abusive—even within a co-parenting app that could be reviewed by the court—demonstrating a clear lack of accountability. With Shirley’s guidance, my girlfriend was able to successfully navigate the legal process and establish a structured and enforceable possession schedule. The final order also included alcohol monitoring measures to ensure the child’s safety, as well as requirements for the father to re-enter the workforce and provide child support. Importantly, it also addressed communication standards by prohibiting profanity and abusive language moving forward. Shirley’s deep knowledge of family law was evident throughout the process, ensuring that all relevant scenarios were carefully considered and addressed. I would also like to recognize Shirley’s legal assistant, Amanda, who played a vital role in the experience. She consistently kept us informed, responded promptly, and followed through on every detail. Her communication was clear, efficient, and reassuring, giving us confidence that everything was being handled thoroughly and professionally. While we hope not to go through a situation like this again, we are confident that if we ever need legal assistance in the future, the Sutherland Law Firm will handle it with the same level of care and expertise. Thank you, Shirley and Amanda, for your exceptional work and attention to detail.

  I loved my experience with Shirley and Amanda. They have been wonderful to work with. Throughout my divorce there were many issues both personal and professional that we came across and they were all handled beautifully. They have great communication and it made things very smooth. I would definitely recommend them.

  I cannot say enough good things about this legal team. Their work ethic was nothing short of incredible, and their communication was consistently professional, prompt, and reassuring throughout the entire process. At every stage of my case, I felt informed, supported, and genuinely cared for. The depth of their knowledge, understanding, and attention to detail was astounding. They didn’t just handle my case — they advocated for me and my children with integrity, compassion, and relentless dedication. I am truly humbled by the level of representation I received and deeply grateful for the positive outcome they helped achieve. Thank you for everything you did for me and my kids. I will forever be grateful for your guidance, your fight, and your heart.
