I am gonna be honest. I see alot of review for Mark on here which in my opinion is a great lawyer, but the lawyer that I haven't seen reviews on is Tara Worthley. Going through stressful cases like custody can be a absolute nightmare. Especially with the wrong representation. It is something that can tear a person to pieces but the guidance and compassion and assistance Tara Worthley, provided was unlike any other. I am still going through my process and whichever way it goes in my situation. I know she fought to the very end and represented me in a very professional manner. What I like about Tara is she is very calm and humble but knows facts . She is a fantastic lawyer, highly recommend to anyone going through a stressful case like custody.
