I would highly recommend Tomi Hanson to anyone needing an excellent adoption attorney. She kept us strong, informed and patient throughout the process. Tomi's empathy, professionalism, hard work and know-how helped us complete our family, and we are forever grateful.

I worked with Tomi Hansen on two different occasions over roughly 2 years, dealing with parenting time between my ex wife and I. Over that time I was continually impressed by her professionalism, knowledge, organization, and caring attitude towards the situation. It was great to have someone with a confident and assertive demeanor through all the nonsense and difficult situations you inevitably have to walk through in the legal system.

Tomi was my divorce lawyer. She was friendly and professional and a key part of why I ended up with my divorce/custody going as hoped for. She had to deal with a lot of unnecessary drama unfortunately because of my ex but she handled the situations appropriately and professionally. I would recommend her to others.

If I could give a zero star I would. Spent almost $6k (which is to be expected) to see the lawyer twice. The initial (free) consultation and the court date. Regardless of the outcome of the case, she was very unorganized in court, did not go over anything with us before and felt annoyed with my questions. Mind you this was the first time ever going to court so we had questions and wanted to meet before to discuss what would happen and what would be presented. That did not happen and she made it very hard to communicate. The billing was unorganized and did not receive a bill until months later.
