Anything I didn't understand I was able to email my question and they provided better explanation. They were fast with responding. I was very satisfied even though the 90 day waiting period seemed to take forever otherwise it was smooth, prompt, professional, and respectful.

Cairns Law Offices staff have been nothing but professional and prompt with replies and follow ups during this long process I did not anticipate. It's very much appreciated since communication has been eroding with just about every other company, firm or any establishment for that matter. Highly recommend Cairns Law offices services and professional staff.

I used their online divorce format. I did not need a name change, property division or custody filings. So I can’t speak to those matters. But in uncontested divorce, hands down this is the way to go! $250 for a divorce including filing fees! it went very quickly as well. I am super pleased with their services!

The Divorce Process is self explanatory when both parties are in agreement. It’s low cost and minimal paperwork. Cairns Law Offices communications brings the law terminology for divorcing to laymen terms and if you clearing know how to follow simple instructions, your divorce will be granted with ease.

Divorce is an emotional process on many levels and can be very expensive. i found Cairns Law Firm on line. i was skeptical due to the low cost and quick turnaround times. i took a chance; paid the one time upfront fee (i did not have ANY additional cost), i followed the directions in the clear emails, sent my signed documents right back and the divorce was completed. i did not have any court appointments i did not miss any work. Frankly… sad to say, it was easier getting divorced using Cairns Law Firm than it was getting married. i would not delay recommending them to family or friends.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
