I met Ms. Waggoner almost 11 years ago to the day. I was going through a horrible divorce. At the time my son was only 1 year old and my daughter was 3 years old. I was up against the wall with my ex being a very respected physician and I was just a carpenter...I felt like no one listened to anything I had to say. Ms. Waggoner was assigned to be our GAL and it made all the difference in the world. She took her time to really get to know me and my children... to look past the mountain of baseless allegations to see the truth. Because of her efforts I got joint legal custody of my children and today, 11 years later, my oldest, my daughter, lives with me. I have custody of her. Besides my family no one else believed in me. Ms. Waggoner spoke for and stood up for my children’s best interests and for that I will be forever grateful. Thank you again. Always,The Schwartz’sread more

From the moment I met her, Andee’s advice and attitude towards me and my case were excellent. I was displeased with my first attorney. I did not feel that he had my best interests at heart, and he did not keep me apprised of what was going on in my case. It made my fear and anxiety about the situation increase exponentially. I did my research and found Andee, and it was the best thing I ever did. She is so knowledgeable about the law, and she was direct and candid with me about what to expect throughout the process. She is extremely detail oriented, which I really appreciated. She knew the ins and outs of my case like the back of her hand. If you want a lawyer that just reads a few of your documents the night before and just shows up in court and wings it, she isn’t the one for you. She diligently prepared to seriously protect and defend me where needed. No stone was left unturned. I was extremely comforted by that. It was the first time I had hope in all of this. She and her office were so responsive. I am so happy with the result in my case and I know it is because I put my trust in Andee. She is truly outstanding.read more

I hired Andee to handle my divorce case based on a referral by a close friend. She immediately made me feel comfortable and calm. She not only answered my questions and calmed my anxieties, but she is an excellent listener and I respected her direction and guidance. I always knew she had my back. I always felt that she was genuinely concerned for my well-being and the well-being of my children. She was very responsive to me and was very approachable throughout the process, and that was so important to me. At the end of the day, I received a much better settlement than I anticipated. I recommend this law firm, and Andee Hastings for anyone who needs a brilliant, competent, skilled divorce lawyer.read more

I hired Waggoner Hastings, specifically Andee Hastings, to assist with my modification case. I was not happy with my first attorney. There were problems with my parenting plan and documents, and they didn't protect me like they should have. I needed someone with skills and that I could trust to fix them. Andee fought for me from the first moment to the very last. We ended up resolving it by agreement but it wasn't easy. Every step of the way was a fight because my ex is difficult. But my relationship with my child was on the line, and I would not accept anything less than the best. I am relieved and happy to say that is exactly what I got with Andee. She not only fixed the problems that were already there, but also accomplished things for me that I had hoped for but didn't necessarily think I would get. I finally feel like we can move forward with clarity and I am so grateful for that.read more

I had a great experience with this law firm. I hired Andee Hastings to fix problems in my settlement agreement. It was written very poorly and I had obligations for years beyond anything reasonable. I was recommended to her by a lawyer and friend that I trust, and she lived up to the recommendation. It was very difficult, both because of my difficult ex-wife and the law was not on our side, which I knew going in. But she found a way, made a plan, and kept going until we fixed the problems. There were times I thought it wouldn't happen, but she didn't waver. She remained steady and confident and pushed through until we obtained the result I wanted and needed. I admire and respect her tenacity. It is exactly what I needed. She has an ability to be both cooperative when appropriate and necessary and do battle when needed. It's amazing to witness. I saw the review complaining about someone in the firm and fees. That could not have been more opposite to my experience. Andee and her staff were very cost conscious and explained to me at every point what we could do to keep costs down. I know these things cost money and there were certain choices i made that increased the cost, but they were careful with my money and I was grateful for that. In the end, she saved me so much money, not only for fixing all of the problems in the divorce documents but also preventing further litigation. I recommend Andee and the firm to anyone needing help with a divorce or post-divorce issue.read more

I was married for over 30 years and totally in love with my husband. I did not want a divorce. I found Ms. Hastings, and she immediately calmed me and helped me understand I would survive this. She helped me through this process in a way I can hardly describe. She was my lawyer and my champion. She knew what I needed and fought for me. She got me what I needed for life, and I know that doesn't normally happen. I felt cared for throughout this entire ordeal, and for that I will be forever grateful. She was very careful with my billing, and I appreciated that. I know that fighting for some of these things costs money. but she did everything she could to help keep my costs down. Her conscientiousness not only for how she handled my case, but also minding the cost to me meant everything to me. Thank you, Andrea!read more
