I live in Texas and secured Mr. Sheffield to represent me for a child custody case in Alabama to bring my child here to Texas. I knew it would be difficult because we had to have overwhelming proof that it was better for her here. Mr. Sheffield came highly recommended. He was definitely worth it. I would definitely recommend Mr. Sheffield to anyone.
