I briefly spoke to Susan about my case and without hesitation she provided advice that helped tremendously without any hassle. This showed me she truly cares about helping others without having to hook you in like some lawyers tend to do.

Ms. Hankins is the attorney who drafted my mother's and sister's wills. Because I am the executrix of my mother's will, Ms. Hankins represented me in probate court following her death. Ms. Hankins is professional, caring, patient, and well-versed in the law. I plan on hiring her again when I am ready to navigate the patent process and develop my brand.

Sue Hankins is a tenacious fighter for her clients. So well versed in civil law, contracts and makes sure you understand your rights. Very satisfied with working with such a professional. With Sue’s experience and guidance I was able to resolve dispute and dismissed claim as defendant met demands as outlined in original contract. Don’t be walked over by an aggressive contractor. I highly recommend Sue!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Sue at Hankins Legal. I had the misfortune of needing legal representation for a wrongful death suit on behalf of my mother. Sue hit the ground running with my case. I discovered very quickly that I had found a detail-oriented and critical thinker who went above and beyond what I expected. Her compassion and empathy was evidence that I wasn’t just another name on her client list. She was quick to return calls and e-mails and always kept me up to date on where we were in each phase of the case. I highly recommend Hankins Legal because I saw firsthand the tremendous amount of work that was expended on my behalf. And she won my case!
