L. Olan

Child Support & Parenting Time Client

"I hired Attorney Chatterton to represent me in a Child Support/Parenting Time case and one of the first things I noticed was how frank and honest he is...he told me that he would not promise me anything more than his 100% dedication to my case. Attorney Chatterton took on my case, which is in Isabella county, on very short notice...the day before he was going on vacation and my court hearing was the day he returned. Throughout this time, he kept in communication with me and made me feel that he would give it his all. Being an Active Duty Army Solider stationed outside the state of Michigan, it has been difficult to find an Attorney that is not only an honest hard worker, but also one that is willing to go above and beyond for me. Thank you sir, for all of your help. I greatly appreciate you for caring!"

Mike B

Spousal Support Client

"After 3 years, many court dates, and two other Attorneys I finally wised up and hired Attorney Chatterton to represent me in my spousal support case. He was very up-front, honest and a man of integrity! He was compassionate to my situation and utilized his legal knowledge and expertise when presenting the facts. Each time we entered the court room I felt like he had my back. Whenever I needed a questioned answered, I would email Attorney Chatterton and every email was answered promptly. Attorney Chatterton made sure that I understood every step of the process. I believe if you are looking for an attorney who will give you the confidence of a fair day in court, then you should hire Attorney Chatterton."
