What Our Clients Say

My fiance and I worked with Jack T. for custody of his two kids over the last year-ish. He’s truly been heaven sent. He’s responsible, detail oriented, genuinely invested, remembers conversations for months prior & genuinely will stand up for his clients! We worked with him at his old firm and through the transition also, and he didn’t miss a beat. Thankful for him & the outcome. Definitely recommend.

Ellis Family Law was there for me in my time of need and I couldn’t have asked for a better advocate to have on my side. I was lost and they helped me every step of the way. Autumn and her team went above and beyond during a difficult time in life. Ellis Family Law is the best value for the attention to detail that you will receive. If I could give more than 5 ☆’s I would!

Ellis Family Law has made all the difference to me. Autumn has represented me with intellect, compassion and integrity. When other attorneys have stepped in briefly, they’ve all been exceptional. The staff are kind, helpful and very responsive. I recommend Ellis Family Law without reservation to folks with a difficult divorce who need strong representation.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kathleen Murphy. My family law case has been extremely difficult, complicated, and emotionally overwhelming, and it has not been an easy situation for anyone to handle. Kathleen has been incredibly patient, professional, knowledgeable, and supportive throughout the entire process.She takes the time to listen, understands the details of the case, and works very hard to protect her client’s interests. During some of the most stressful moments of my life, I felt reassured knowing that Kathleen was representing me and guiding me through each step. What I appreciate most is her strength, dedication, and compassion. She has handled a very challenging case with professionalism and persistence, even when the circumstances became complicated and difficult. I am truly grateful for everything Kathleen has done and continues to do for me and my family. Having the right family law attorney makes such a difference, especially during a difficult time, and I feel very fortunate to have Kathleen on my side. I highly recommend Kathleen Murphy to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, caring, hardworking, and dedicated family law attorney. Thank you so much, Kathleen, for your patience, guidance, support, and commitment. I will always be grateful for everything you have done for us.

Cole Maimone

Separation agreement and property settlement in hand, I was referred by my marriage dissolution mediator exclusively to Ellis Family Law for obtaining an absolute divorce.

From the moment I opened their website, it was clear I’d be in the best of hands. Six board-certified family law attorneys were on the roster—nearly a fifth of such specialists in the entire state.

My first contact was with founder and managing partner Gray Ellis. During a cordial and comforting conversation, he determined exactly what legal services I’d need; described the process and outcomes I could expect; and after assuring me that he’d be maintaining personal oversight, assigned the attorney best-suited to my case.

Amanda Knight proved to be all I could hope for and more. With a selfless background in pro bono and legal aid services, she calmly and compassionately applied her expertise, keeping me informed every step of the way.

When the absolute divorce was finalized, her careful stewardship of my retainer had resulted in a generous refund of the trust account balance, genially facilitated by paralegal Emilee Dorantes.

Ellis Family Law has earned my gratitude and unqualified endorsement.
