What Our Clients Say

Practice Area

I worked with Kathleen Murphy on a custody case involving domestic violence, and she was an incredible source of support during a very stressful time. She helped me obtain a DVPO so I could leave safely with my daughter, and then guided us through securing a custody agreement that prioritized her safety above all else. I highly recommend her, especially if your case involves DV.

Jaz Thatch

Shannon Tucker has been great at gently leading me through some very challenging legal proceedings and navigating the complexities of the NC legal system.

I highly recommend her and the group at large given their broad expertise and integrated approach to each individual’s circumstances.

K Kennedy

Sarah Gerow and her team did a great job helping me navigate through a difficult seperation. I appricate their legal expertise and kindness.

Nancy Senter

Amanda Knight settled my case quickly after several years of dealing with my ex-spouse. Amanda was upfront with me about what she thought she could do/settle and she delivered!

Nick Galvez

I’m writing this recommendation to share what kind of person you will find when working with Shannon Tucker. Her most valuable attributes would be a very long list indeed. Here are some key ones. Shannon has a clever and analytical mind and is a talented courtroom lawyer. She is able to actively listen and respond kindly. She has an ability to look realistically at issues. This is all backed by 30 plus years practicing law locally with some very challenging cases. Her persistence is shown in the ability to get the utmost for her clients and the many thank you letters she has received from them over her career proves that. As well, Shannon approaches all things in her life with a huge heart and tremendous understanding. Beneath her professional demeanor is someone who makes a huge effort to reach the best outcome available. That is a rarely found staying power. I wholeheartedly give my highest recommendation for Shannon Tucker. Regards, KAD Caulfeild

Kimberley Caulfeild

A little backstory: my child custody case started in 2019. I hired another attorney that did absolutely nothing for my case. A few years later, I decided to hire better representation…Autumn Osbourne. Best decision I could have made. Right from the start, she took charge and I knew I was in good hands. She went above and beyond! Autumn is extremely knowledgeable and anytime I emailed her with questions she got back to me right away. I never felt “in the dark” about anything regarding my child custody. We went to trial and we won my case. I would not have successfully won without her. If you need an attorney who has your back, who is aggressive in the courtroom, and someone who truly believes in justice, Autumn is the one! So grateful and now my daughter and I can move forward with our lives.

Lauren Pate

We highly recommend the legal services of attorney Ellis. Attorney Ellis has represented us in a very difficult family issue and we have been more than satisfied. The firm is extremely knowledgeable about family law and has consistently conducted themselves with the utmost professionalism. We would not think of going into a courtroom without them.

David and Pam

I was in court this week, supporting a dear friend who was fighting to get her children back from her ex after a protracted and extremely acrimonious divorce. It was so stressful and scary but my friend was able to hire Kathleen Murphy from Ellis Family Law. She worked with my friend to try to keep her expenses as low as possible (to be clear – “low”” is a relative term) by giving her guidance and having her do some of the court prep. Her strategy was the opposite of what my friend and I had been discussing for weeks (of course
