Hired Attorney Ms. Terri Hudson Tinder

Attorney Hudson Tinder is not only extremely professional, she is also compassionate and sensitive to each individual's situation. My wife and I have been going through an excruciating custody and child support battle with my ex-wife and Attorney Hudson Tinder had worked diligently and professionally to help my wife and I gain primary custody of my children. She is extremely knowledgeable in her field of family law as well as other areas of law. I encourage anyone that is looking for an attorney that will do what's best for her client, especially if children are involved, to hire Attorney Hudson Tinder.

Hired Attorney Ms. Terri Hudson Tinder

I have tremendous respect and appreciation for Terri. Throughout our legal battle, she was a true professional, a courageous fighter and completely empathetic towards the situation my family was thrust into. In short, I faced a foreclosure and tremendous debt at the hands of my ex-wife. Not only did Terri successfully take on the mortgage company, she also fought tirelessly to rectify the wrongdoings and damages done by my ex. Terri never backed down and fought hard for me. Truly wonderful!

Hired Attorney Ms. Terri Hudson Tinder

I chose Attorney Tinder to represent me in a divorce and on-going custody case because she is experienced and trained in handling cases of domestic violence. She is thorough in her research and preparation for court. She cares deeply about the safety and well-being of women and children. You will not find a better attorney in NW Indiana for protecting the well-being of survivors of abuse.

Hired Attorney Ms. Terri Hudson Tinder

Working with his lawyer, was an absolute nightmare. Please do your homework more diligently to seek out a more compassionate, genuine loyal person in your case. Her patients showed very impatient at all times the best part of this case is, I’m no longer being represented by her. Good luck!!

Response from Ms. Terri Hudson Tinder
I am sorry that this client was unhappy with my representation. I offered legal advice based on my knowledge and experience in family law. This client refused to follow my advice and preferred to work with an attorney who offered a differing opinion.

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

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.
