Melanie G Moffat LLC

I have had an excellent experience with Melanie Moffatt. I have been a client for over 6 years. Melanie and her staff have been professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. My attorney took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I felt supported every step of the way. They handled my case efficiently and with great attention to detail. I highly recommend this law office to anyone looking for trustworthy and effective legal representation.

I met Melanie when a close friend was beginning a very difficult divorce case. I helped her from start to finish of her case. Not only did Melanie spend countless late hours and weekends on her case but the outcome she received was much better than expected based on the situation. She will fight for her clients with honesty and the true values needed to protect them and support them, which can be rare. I highly recommend her to any and everyone. If there we more than 5 stars, that is what I would give because she went the extra mile. Thank you, Melanie, for all you have done for my friend.

Melanie Moffat is the best lawyer in the jefferson city mo and I have been her client since 2021. She helped me with her advice what's bad and what's good for my case,she is a professional lawyer in the town. I won my child custody case because of her and I'll hire her again and again in the future. Please don't read or listen to people that gave her 1 star because they never used her to be their lawyer or they didn't listen to her advice and when it failed they blamed her not themselves,hater is gonna hate no matter what!!! If y'all need a lawyer to fight for you in the courthouse,hire Melanie Moffat and you never disappoint her!!!

Everyday for the rest of my life will be different because of Melanie. when the mother of my child took my daughter and moved I went 15 months without seeing my ten year old. When Melanie entered on my case we started a very difficult journey of getting my daughter back, and proving to the courts and the world that I deserved to be a parent. And I did. By doing what she asked me to, do the mother can never take my daughter away from me again. This was a very long road filled with hoops i had to jump through, but i prevailed. To anyone seemingly going through what I did, not being able to see their babies, and are willing to do what the courts prescribe. I would say definitely hire Melanie.

My experience with Melanie Moffitt as my attorney was extremely disappointing. I hired her to handle a custody and child support matter, but from the start, it seemed like she was more focused on what she believed was best, rather than listening to what I needed or what both parents had already agreed on. She consistently dismissed my input, even when it aligned with what the mother of my child wanted as well. Instead of moving quickly to close the case in the first month--when it could have been easily resolved--she delayed progress, added unnecessary complications, and ignored the path I asked her to take. I eventually fired her because she was not representing my best interests, and afterward she tried to make it appear in court records like she withdrew from the case on her own. Thankfully, the official court docket in Jefferson City clearly shows that I dismissed her. Melanie also presented an invoice that listed tasks that I felt were slow, excessive, and in many cases unnecessary. She failed to challenge a $900 monthly child support amount that should have been addressed immediately. She allowed months to go by without fighting for a reduction, despite the circumstances. Once I represented myself, I was able to get everything I originally asked for--quickly and without issue. In my personal opinion, her services did not benefit me or my child. I believe she made the process harder than it needed to be and added costs that weren't justified by the results. If you're a Black parent or someone who needs a lawyer who truly listens and fights for your goals, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere. Even though I thanked her at the time, I now feel it's important to share my honest experience so others can make informed decisions. -- Evan Jackson Miller
