Ann Meador won my mediation so I didn't have to go to court against my ex-wife. I have been trying to get completely divorced from this person for the past 17 years. Ann Meador finally made it happen for me.

Simply put, Ann changed our lives. We picked the wrong attorney the first time around and it cost us a year of missed opportunities with our loved one and thousands of dollars. Don't make the same mistake we did. Trusted and highly intelligent,  it’s evident Ann's credibility in the legal community carries weight. She maneuvered through a highly contentious legal battle, keeping us informed of what to expect & masterfully engineering a solution to not only what we hoped to resolve, but also a highly complex challenge we saw no way out of. Regina, our paralegal, relentlessly dove into details and worked tirelessly on our case. We count ourselves unbelievably lucky to have had the Meador & Johnson team in our corner! While I hope we never need legal assistance again, Ann is a force to be reckoned with and the expert we will call if needed - in a heartbeat!

Ms. Meador helped me with my divorce case this past year. She was professional, knowledgeable, and straightforward--everything that I needed during a difficult time. Her staff was always pleasant, responsive, and timely. Without reservation I recommend Ms. Meador.

My wife and I had an unexpected family law situation that needed to be resolved quickly. Our youngest child turned 18 years old and we needed termination of court ordered child support. Ann did not waste our time. She got right to work and took away the typical worry and headaches that come with family law matters. This is our second time having Ann represent us in family law matters. Ann Meador easily gets 5 Stars from us and we rate her best in the Pensacola area.
