Children's Law Center

Stacy is not honest, not prepared and very unprofessional. I dont feel she represented or protected the children involved in anyway.

Andrea Blackstone and her team are amazing. We had been working on trying to find fair legal representation for over a year.  Most of the lawyers often told us (my boyfriend) that there was nothing that could be done to make a case to have 50/50 rights to his son since the original orders were already set due to being late to his court hearing. He's an amazing father and often he or his family was caring for his son majority of the week or making changes at the drop of a dime to avoid any "repercussions".  Bottom line there were too many grey areas that only ended up causing stress and pressure for his son. While trying to find representation (while being discouraged again and again) one lawyer recommended The Children's Law Center as a way to get mediation and help with co-parenting. We accidentally got a consultation for representation which was the best mistake.  They went over realistic expectations. Even explained with us why the other lawyers discouraged reopening the case. They were very transparent and even explained and set the right expectations of what were the realistic changes they would help my boyfriend request, always with his sons well being and future success as the main priority.  THIS IS SO IMPORTANT. I CANT STRESS THIS ENOUGH. We have seen so many spend 10s of Thousands of $$$ just to be disappointed because the outcome wasn't what they were expecting or wanted. Andrea and her team listened to my boyfriends story, showed empathy with his frustrations, learned the other side of the story directly from his sons mother and ultimately laid out options that would best benefit his son. They used their time very effectively and gave us easy to understand itemized bills to show where the money was going. I wish he was the one to write this review however he's a man of little words.  Thank you very much. Highly recommend!!!

Ill rave about everyone at The Childrens Law Center any day. Andrea, Tiah, and Stacy were all incredibly attentive, responsive and caring when it came to my case. They took the time to listen to me, gave wise advice and encouraged me every step of the way. Im more than happy with the outcome of my case and will send anyone seeking legal advice to the team at The Childrens Law Center.

On paper, Andrea is a lawyer. In reality, she is compassionate, intuitive and Honest, with a capital H. Andrea's knowledge of Hawaii's family law is incredible; when going toe to toe in court, citing HRS law numbers from memory, I'd often find myself thinking, "Yes, that's my lawyer!" I couldn't leave a review without also crediting the amazing Tiah. Together, Andrea and Tiah were an unstoppable force of lawful good with a perfectly seasoned pinch of chaotic good (D&D reference for my fellow rpg nerds). I owe Tiah and Andrea more than I can ever repay in this lifetime. If you're in need of JUST a lawyer, who will take your money and your case without considering the best interest of your baby(ies), then these ladies and this firm is not for you.

Andrea Blackstone, Tiah, and the entire staff of The Childrens Law Center were just incredible on my divorce that I started and finally finished after 2 1/2 years. I initially represented myself. Fortunately, I realized I was way in over my head and I was guided to their office after interviewing several family law offices. They were just what I needed and they helped guide me through a very complex family law process. You need to at least talk to these wonderful people and see if they are a good fit for your case. Even through Covid, the birth of Andreas first child and a crazy ex who went through 4 lawyers during the entire ordeal, Andreas team was always there for me and fighting for my needs. I cant say thank you enough to Andrea and the entire staff for representing me and getting me through the most difficult time of my life. Go talk to them, you wont regret it. Tony
