Lauren C. April 3, 2024
Family Law Attorney Mr. Puckett represented me in a very continuous divorce and child custody case. I can not say enough good things about him and his associates. Having no idea about the law and process, I found Mr. Puckett to be very professional and knowledgeable. He made every effort to make sure I knew the why of things when I was confused. He fought for me and always gave me good advice. Mr. Puckett does not sugar coat anything and tells you exactly what the process is. Many times, I found myself distressed about different processes and Mr. Puckett and his associates were always available to talk to and reassure me that they were looking after me and my children’s best interest. Mr. Puckett was able to provide services that gave me the best possible outcome in my case. I would highly recommend his law firm to anyone going through a divorce.
Trina W. February 21, 2022
Could not ask for a better lawyer Mr. Puckett has been a rock in troubled waters. He took on my divorce case a year and a half into it after I had finally got fed up with my first lawyer. He handled everything professionally and efficiently despite the chaotic mess my first lawyer left him. It was a night and day difference. Mr. Puckett and his team were there to answer any questions and always responded promptly. He managed to get my divorce settled without going to court which I honestly thought was going to be impossible. He is extremely knowledgeable and quick to react to situations thanks to his understanding of the laws. I want no one else handling any future issues for me. To say I highly recommend him would be an understatement.

Legal Answers
1 Questions Answered
Q. Can I file a motion to dismiss an ex parte?
A: Yes, you can file a motion to dismiss. However, file a motion to dismiss does not guarantee the Judge will dismiss it. You will need to show up to the hearing prepared to defend against the ex-parte, and ask the Judge if your can argue your filed motion to dismiss first.
