Absolutely outstanding – I got full custody of my daughter!
I can’t thank Monica Schuring and Collins Family Law Group enough for the incredible support and expertise during my divorce. Going through a custody battle is incredibly stressful and emotional, but they made me feel heard, prepared, and confident every step of the way. Monica fought tirelessly for my daughter’s best interests, was always clear and honest about the process, and handled every detail with professionalism and compassion.
Thanks to their hard work and strategic approach, I have full custody. I finally have peace of mind knowing my daughter is where she belongs, with me, her father! If you’re facing a difficult divorce or custody situation, I highly recommend Monica Schuring and Collins Family Law Group without hesitation. They truly deliver results and care deeply about their clients. Best decision I ever made!

Highly recommend Patti
I wanted to say how good Patti was to help me get my case completed. I had been with a different firm in the city who did nothing to help my case, and I ended up switching to Patti halfway through. She helped get things fixed and back on track. Her response time was amazing whenever I needed her. She put my kids and their best interest first. Highly recommend her. An honest, very well-organized and driven attorney who puts their client first.
Pamela Faherty

I had a very good experience with this law firm, especially Mikaila Matt. She was professional, honest, and clear about my case from the beginning. She explained everything in a way I could understand and gave realistic advice without making false promises.
Communication was consistent, and Collins Family Law kept me informed throughout the process. During a stressful time, their support and professionalism made a real difference. I would confidently recommend them to anyone needing family law representation.

Andrew Fischera
She will work hard for you!
I would like to start out by saying that when I decided to look for an attorney to handle my case I searched a few firms, reading many reviews. When I read the reviews regarding Collins Family Law, I was very pleased with what I had read. So I reached out to them, and they responded quickly, as I was not only wanting to start my divorce but also needing to, because the opposing party was purposely stalling and making things very difficult for me. So I hired Mikaila Matt to represent me. During the process, there were moments for myself that were frustrating because of the opposing party, and Mikaila always reassured me and made me feel extremely comfortable and relieved in those moments. She is very kind and very professional. She worked very hard and diligently for me. She was very communicative with me, and very understanding and patient with me. As with anyone facing a divorce, it is stressful, frustrating, and worrisome because of the unknown. Mikaila gave me reassurance, kept me focused, and calm throughout the process. She fought hard for me, and we prevailed in what I was wanting out of this divorce. All the other staff that was included in my case or those I had to correspond with were all so helpful and friendly. Mikaila, I can’t begin to thank you enough for all you have done for me. I appreciate everything you’ve done! You worked so hard for me and it was done with such kindness and professionalism. I highly recommend this firm to anyone! I highly recommend Mikaila Matt for your representation. She will work hard for you! Thank you again for everything! And if I ever need anything else in the future, I will be calling.
God Bless,
Kelly Evans (Bates)

Nancy Roberts was amazing.
Nancy Roberts was amazing. Informed, calm, cool, collected, relatable, an amazing advocate—everything you could want in an attorney. My case, and likely most people's cases, felt so personal, and it meant the world to have Nancy in my corner, giving me good information and advice and helping me achieve my goal. I was reminded every time I talked to her that I had a fantastic attorney on my side. I'm incredibly grateful.
Sherri Walker
She made me feel like I finally had a voice
Kristen Leonard began representing me in August of 2023. From the very first time I met with her over a Zoom call, she communicated clearly with me and gave me her honest opinions. Kristen always answered my emails within a timely manner, making me feel valued. She took my concerns seriously and made me feel like I finally had a voice in dealing with my ex-husband. She was always very professional. She held my hand through one of the most difficult seasons of my life up to this point. After a hard-fought battle, an agreement was finally reached during our second day of trial this week, October 28th, 2025. Kristen maintained a professional and encouraging attitude throughout the entirety of the case. I am proud to have been represented by her. I cannot recommend her enough! To me and my family, she should be known as a “super lawyer”😉!
I would also like to recognize Tammy Farnsworth & Jeanine Ferezan for their help, kindness & encouragement!

Spencer did a wonderful job
Spencer did a wonderful job with my case in Cabarrus County. Thank you.
Tiger Gamble
Madison was thorough and very dedicated
My case was straightforward, with very little pushback from the other party. My main concern was billing, as routine emails sometimes felt a bit high and a few could have been combined.
Madison was thorough and very dedicated throughout the process. Even though I was personally frustrated that the court focuses more on procedures and finances than the mental and emotional impact of a situation, I’d definitely recommend this firm.
Sara Yousif
She fought tirelessly to protect my rights
Going through a divorce was one of the most difficult times of my life, and I will always be grateful to have had Attorney Spencer Schold by my side. From day one, she treated me with compassion, respect, and genuine care. I never felt like “just another case.” Attorney Spencer Schold took the time to understand my situation, listen to my concerns, and guide me with both honesty and empathy. What impressed me most was her ability to balance compassion with incredible strength as an advocate. She fought tirelessly to protect my rights and my future, and I always felt reassured knowing that someone so knowledgeable and determined was in my corner. If you're looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and trustworthy divorce attorney, I highly recommend Attorney Spencer Schold, the best!
Lilliam Rios
I was empowered and genuinely supported
Any lawyer can take your case, but with Shayna Matheny at Collins Law, it's more than just that. I was empowered and genuinely supported on all fronts during the process. Before I went with Shayna, I had a failed mediation that left me emotionally drained and unsure. Shayna met me where I was at and truly became my advocate.
I never felt like I didn’t have her full attention. She actively listened to my story, understood the layers of my situation, and instinctively pulled out important or useful points. It was empowering to have someone remember details that others overlooked so that I didn’t have to repeat or re-explain later. She used this to offer tailor-made options that would actually fit the situation. It wasn’t just a superficial approach; she sought my input on strategies and responses. I was never given unrealistic expectations or frivolous avenues but rather kept me grounded during the high-stress moments. Her familiarity with court personnel and local procedures was reassuring.
Shayna gave me resources specific to what I needed throughout the process that were practical and guided me through the issue at hand. She is also still available to answer questions or scenarios that come up, which give me confidence going forward, and she remains available even after the court decision. Overall, I feel at peace with closing this chapter in my life, knowing I had the best representation and all the effort possible on my side.
susanne GROSJEAN
I gained full legal and physical custody
I had been told by several other firms what I had presented was never going to happen given the custody agreement I had in place for 7+ years. After meeting with Shayna Matheny, I was told it would be a fight, but a fight she was willing to take on. After a year of working with her and 9 hours in the courtroom, I gained full legal and physical custody of my child. We were both in such shock given the verdict was not given at the end of the hearing, but thanks to her I was given what I sued for, and then some! She never stopped working, always had my back, and was constantly reassuring me I was doing everything right. She is the needle in a haystack when it comes to family law. This firm has gained a lifelong client!
Chelsea LeClair
Divorce is no fun and it is messy.
Divorce is no fun and it is messy. I was fortunate to work with the team of Lee Christian-Clinton and Amber Morris as my counsel. Instantly likeable and very thorough, this team worked tirelessly to represent my position. I urge you to call Collins and start getting your life and dignity back.
Doug Stewart
Best Decision I Made
I had a civil family court case brought up on me and for about 6 months tried to act as my own lawyer. I can't begin to say how stressful it was; dealing with the court, opposing counsel, and guardian ad litem. It was horrible. I felt as though I was being run over by a steamroller. Finally, I was able to retain Collins Family Law Firm. Best decision I made during that whole ordeal. I had a consultation with Jennifer; she said to me, "No worries, I got you." When she started navigating through the mess I had made by representing myself, I could feel the relief from stress almost immediately! I was no longer being harassed by the opposing counsel nor the guardian. Jennifer and her team acted quickly and effectively. In the end, I had my children back. I pray that I never go through family court again; but if I do, I will be taking Collins Law Firm with me! The entire team at Collins Law is very professional and sympathetic with your circumstances. Thank you Collins Law!! Your team was heaven sent!!
