Amber is a fantastic attorney. She and her team are very personable, kind, and overall amazing! Pam, her legal assistant, has been so sweet and gone above and beyond to ease the process. I have been truly blessed to have had Amber represent me through my post divorce issues. It's rare to find an attorney with Christian values and she is a wonderful example.

Freddy Killen

Thank you New Beginnings Family Law. I was able to get professional services and excellent advice from them on my family issues. They were very thorough and i was met with a friendly smile when visiting their office. I will be using them again and highly recommend that if you need legal advice to give them a call.

Looking for a great lawyer!! It’s Amber!!

Rudy Sparks

Amber James is an excellent attorney. I have complete trust and confidence in her. She brought my children back into to my life and made it so much more complete. I am very grateful to her and the staff at New Beginnings Family Law.

Brandi Wilson

I’m Brandi Wilson and client of David Pace. New Beginnings Family Law is an awesome firm. Everyone was so reassuring, understanding and kind. The first person I met was my attorney David Pace. He was a great listener and then very clear on what my options were. He is my third attorney to take my divorce case, but the first to actually finish the case. Others stopped working on the case because of my lack of money. David did not. He took my case at no cost. I am so thankful for his help. The next person I worked with was Brandy Moore, client care coordinator, who was very sweet and let me know that everyone in that office was there for me. The next person I worked with was Krissy Latham, the paralegal. She was awesome. Always had a great smile and helped me with specific wording and then explaining them to my husband. I didn’t want to sign the paperwork together, it would feel awkward to me, Krissy took the time to let us come in separately (despite they are taking my case cost-free) and explained everything to both of us. I can not leave out of this review the wonderfully sweet front desk associate. Everyone at this firm was amazing. I suggest this firm to anyone who is in need of family law. Thank you again, New Beginnings Family Law, especially David Pace, Krissy Latham, and Brandy Moore. ~Brandi Wilson~

David Pace is great everyone is friendly they work hard

Christie Patterson PO5

The support and consideration this law practice has shown me and my family has been phenomenal. I never feel like an inconvenience or burden. With every email, phone call, and personal meeting I fee as though I am the only case these women are handling! I am so grateful to have learned about Amber James and her staff. She is an incredible business owner and inspiration! We adore this place. She showed up and showed out at BOTH of our hearings. (We utilized her and her staff for two separate cases and were more than happy with our results)

Jeremiah Grider

The entire staff I dealt with was professional, prompt, responsive, and most compelling for me...compassionate. There is a genuine sense of caring and concern for your clients. It greatly helped my mental and emotional state working through my divorce. Krissy Latham inparticular was fantastic. She made everything worry free and easy on my end.

Kyle Houghton

My experience here as a whole was excellent. I couldn't find a better team of attorneys to work with on my case. I won't get into specifics, but Ms. James is the best of the best. I wholeheartedly would recommend New Beginnings Family Law.

Felicia Brown

I just love the lawyers an staff.

Emily Sears

I chose New Beginnings Family Law after reading Amber Yerkey James's profile on Avvo, and her goals for her legal practice. Ruby Panter was the lawyer who chose to represent me, and I cannot express how fantastic a person she is and how incredible a job she did. The entire law firm exceeded my expectations in every way. Every single person I interacted with cared about my case and my child. They worked with me on payments when my finances took a turn for the worse, they advised me on ways I could help my daughter when her mental health took a turn for the worse, and they went above and beyond during our year and a half legal battle. If you need an honest, reliable, and compassionate law firm that will fight for you as though it was their own child on the line, you absolutely must seek the services of New Beginnings Family Law.

Gale Masters

My lawyer at New Beginnings Family Law feels like an old friend. He always gave me honest advice and was very transparent with me.

Jennifer Lane

There are no words to express the amount of gratitude and appreciation I have for every single person with NBFL, especially David Pace. When I first met with Mr. Pace, I was completely distraught and thrown into a situation that made my worst nightmare come true - losing my children. From the very beginning, Mr. Pace and his team worked diligently and efficiently to make this nightmare disappear. They were there to always answer my questions, address my concerns, and always kept my financial situation in mind. They were always willing to work with me on payments, but they never sacrificed or compromised my case just because I couldn’t make a payment to them every single week. Mr. Pace provided me with his personal phone number so if I ever had any emergent concerns, I could call or text him and he would always help me understand what is going. While in court, Mr. Pace shows his 30+ years of experience. He has such great rapport with the judges and court staff that he can always be confident in the decision you dreadfully, impatiently, anxiously await. Mr. Pace was my saving grace, my confidante. For the first time, in a very long time, I felt like I finally had someone to fight the battle I became too tired to fight by myself. If for whatever reason I need a family lawyer in the future, Mr. Pace and NBFL will always be my go-to without any hesitation. They have been worth every single penny I have paid. When it comes to NBFL, you truly get what you pay for, and when it comes to your family - especially your children - there should never be a price tag!!

Amy Ragan

I highly recommend Amber James and everyone that works at New Beginnings Family Law Firm. Everyone is so supportive and very involved with their clients. I recently had a custody case and Amber James is by far the best attorney around for any family matters. While we waited on the judge and the Attorney’s to talk, Amber talked with my husband and I about life. I know she was trying to keep my nerves away and she did that. She went way far and beyond for my family. I’m forever greatful for her and all the staff. Krissy, my paralegal was amazing! I can’t tell you just how much I adore this firm. Thank you all so much! Truly a God send and their faith at New Beginnings is shown through their work! God bless you all!

dexter smith

The staff from top to bottom was excellent, in particular David Pace Att. and Krissy Latham Para Legal. The cost was a lot more than I anticipated but I received pretty much all I wanted.

Justin Williams

David Pace and Krissy Latham worked as my legal team, and I am grateful for their representation. They were prompt, efficient, and friendly throughout my case, and helped me stay focused on what mattered while respecting my concerns. I wholeheartedly recommend them, and the New Beginnings law firm, to anyone facing divorce or custody proceedings. I will seek them first if I need future legal representation in any family concern.

Whitney Stover

The first encounter I had with this firm was with Amber in a custody case several years ago. She is very professional, as well as personable. Recently, my sister went through a divorce, and Amber and Preston were consulting the case. Again, they were very professional and personable. You will not be viewed just as a client in their book. You will be seen as a person that is seeking help, and they will provide to the best of their ability. Thank you New Beginnings!

Jennifer Hardiman

The whole process with working them went very smoothly and they were very nice and helpful. They also got things done in a very timely manner and they are very friendly and sweet. No complaints what so ever!

KeVante Price

Very helpful and courteous through my entire divorce process. Handled everything professionally and in a great timely matter. Very thankful I chose this law firm to help me with my divorce. The entire team was amazing from start to finish.

Melissa Van Otten

It is hard to summarize my experience with this wonderful law office without writing an entire novel. I came to them a broken and distraught mother, simply trying to set up joint custody of my sweet 3 year old boy. They were immediately understanding and empathetic to my situation. They took their time to hear my entire explanation and then patiently explained the best path forward for the optimal solution. Ms. James did not sugar coat anything, and was upfront about all the possibilities. While it was sometimes a difficult to hear the truth, she did it out of pure honesty so that I could make the best decisions for the future of my family. Combine her expertise with Ms. Panter and their paralegal, Ms. Latham, I felt like I had an army supporting me. They answered every phone call, text message, and email promptly and thoroughly. In addition to the attorneys and paralegal that I worked with, the entire office staff was courteous and polite. I am sure I apologized a thousand times to all of them during the entire process, as it is hard to pursue a divorce without emotions. They reassured me constantly and with love. I was (and still am) impressed with their professionalism and knowledge. Not only did we achieve what we set out to achieve, but with the best possible outcome. I cannot thank them enough for helping me out during such a terrifying time in my life. I would recommend them to any and every person in need of an attorney. They truly care and have the interest of their client in their hearts. I would certainly consider them close friends.

Chris Buchanan

I just want to take a second to thank all of the staff members from New Beginnings Family Law for standing by my side and helping me get through everything. I appreciate all that you all did for me.

Jon Shelton

The staff at New Beginnings Family Law really takes the time to get to know their clients and their situations. I would recommend them to anyone who has a family law situation. They are great!

Patricia Treece

My great niece was placed into my home when she was 3 1/2 months old . After 2 months we were told she would be placed permanently with a relative that we didn't know and possibly with no visitation . We were devastated !. We were also told by her case workers and other attorneys it would be a wast of time and money to hire an attorney because of our circumstances. But at New Beginnings we were meet with a positive attitude a yes we can and we will attitude by the entire staff. Mr David Pace our attorney, and Miss Krissy Latham our paralegal worked many hours. We were kept informed about our case every steep of the way. Mr Pace always seamed to have confidence in our case He was upfront about what to expect there were no surprises . They listened to my fears about not getting to see our baby again . When She was 10 1/2 old months old the Judge granted custody to us. This week we are celebrating her first birthday. We are so grateful to the entire staff at New Beginnings my God bless everyone of you. Thank you. Mr & Mrs Treece

Wendy Warren

Their rude and ignorant.

Tara Garoute

New Beginnings Family Law came into our life when we needed them the most. We used them for a custody matter for my husband's daughter. Her mother was alienating him. Amber and her team stepped in and walked us through the entire process. They were patient with me when I would call upset about something that had happened. Amber even spent her Sunday afternoon filing emergency pleadings when my step-daughter was moved to another state without our knowledge. They are kind, understanding, and passionate about father's rights. The children come first! I love this firm and the people in it

James Barnes

I am very pleased with the services I received From the staff at New Beginnings Family Law. They listened to my concerns, gave me solid advice and were very non judgmental. I would recommend them to anyone.

Loranna P

David and Monica are very nice,helpful,considerate,caring people to work with. I would recommend them if you needed a lawyer for a divorce. They even work with out of state case's.

Laura Spencer

Amber James and her entire team are phenomenol! They are caring, concerned and always have my best interests at heart. The counsel and emotional support is second to none. This firm was the best thing in my life during the hardest part of my life. A wonderful group of people.

Anthoney Gibson

David, Krissy and Brandy did a wonderful job guiding me through a very difficult divorce ensuring that everything was fair and equitable. On days that I was not the best client the professionalism and honesty of everyone was always first rate. They made this transition as smooth as it could possibly be considering the circumstances. Thank you.

Vern Saxon

I went to New Beginings Family Law for a custody modification. It was a long and difficult journey. The staff was extremely helpful and always willing to listen and answer my questions. They worked tirelessly on my case to achieve the best possible outcome. Even sending emails on the day of my trial to offer prayers and well wishes. It truly showed the level of compassion and commitment from the staff. My attorney was Amber James. She is one of the most sincere attorneys I have ever met. She never failed to let me know what to expect always keeping me well informed. I actually had two different trials with this same case. During the first trial she was able to secure a visitation schedule I didn’t know existed. The second trial she was able to secure 50-50 Custody of my daughter. I was most impressed with the straight forward honest approach she provided. I pray I never have to go through court again. However, should the need arise my first call will be New Beginings Family Law. Thank you for everything!

Donna Reid

Montina Young Portis, Founder & CEO

The attorneys and staff at New Beginnings Family Law care about their clients and the community. Their mission is AWESOME, “We exist to resolve conflict and protect & grow families while glorifying God.” I’ve been through two divorces and it’s tough because your closest relationship becomes your farthest and it can hurt. I think it’s awesome when a Firm helps hurting people build a new life. Amber, Ruby and David are amazing and I would gladly recommend them to anyone that wants to work with a Firm that will help you make the best decision for your and your family.

David Franco

Great lawyer that goes the extra mile for her clients and their families. I recommend their services.

Deb Kaufman

I know that things are being taken care of by the people at New Beginnings Law Firm.Their knowledge of the law and their compassion for me as I navigate this emotional rollercoaster is a huge comfort to me.

Deanna Loden

New Beginnings Family Law is, in my opinion, the most ethical family law firm in the area. They go above and beyond to help their clients achieve the best outcome possible in their situations. I would recommend any of their attorneys to anyone needing family law assistance.

Jerry Rice

My divorce lawyer took her time with me, answered my questions and was very thorough with her responses. I felt very protected by her when it came time to go to court. I truly felt like she was looking out for me and my best interest so I could try to feel less stressed. After my divorce was final she checked in with me to answer any follow up questions. Considering the circumstances, Kris Sexton was a pleasure to work with.

Roy Daniels

After we got a divorce, my ex moved out of state. We had a visitation schedule set up through a mediator, but he stopped driving to meet me half way. I didn't want our child to miss out on time with her dad I bared the burden of making that trip back and forth to drop her off and pick her up. I turned to New Beginnings Family Law for help when this became too hard on me. We were able to modify the visitation schedule, and made it mandatory for my ex to meet me half way. I can't thank them enough for their help.

Tina Martinson

If divorce is where you have to go, then this is the office for all your family needs. Amber James, particularly offered a compassionate and listening ear to hear clearly my situation. Communicated with ease what I could expect to transpire. Communicated effectively with the other parties involved. This office offered a variety of options to achieve the end results and made this otherwise difficult transition much easier. To move through this process without worry and concern about the legal matters was worth every penny.

Kari Houser

Amber worked tirelessly during my sister and brother-in-laws custody battle with his ex-wife. We all appreciated the whole teams hard work and dedication.

Maria Naccarato

Amber was wonderful to work with! She and her entire staff were helpful and supportive through the entire process of my divorce. She considered my personal situation when advising me on legal matters, but always respected my decisions as we moved through the process. I would happily recommend New Beginnings Family Law to anyone needing such services!

Sam Hobsin

I worked with Ms. James from New Beginnings Family Law. She is always very knowledgeable, fair and lays everything out on the table. She really shines in the courtroom. I would highly recommend this firm.

Tanisha Burke

The team of New Beginnings were very professional and got my matter handled as quickly as possible. It was very smooth process.

Kimberly Mcminn

Complete waste of time and money.

Aaron White

Worst experience I've ever had dealing with attorneys. I live out of state and they treated me like a stranger. I couldn't get a return phone call from my attorney after three months, they billed me for every email and phone call, and they didn't listen to any of my requests. After the entire ordeal, I spent almost $7K without ever seeing a court date, still having a future trial with no representation, and still overpaying for the child support amount for which I originally hired them for ten months earlier. It was clear that they were familiar enough with the other attorney to know their moves, but did nothing to counter. They basically facilitated everything between the opposing attorney with me without ever giving proper counsel, or fighting back on my behalf. It was truly the filthiest experience of my life getting charged that much for attorney's to do nothing but get their paralegal to push paperwork for them. NOT recommended for anyone living out of state.

Anthony Garoute

My wife's mother found this firm through a friend who had used them for a stepparent adoption. Once I met Amber I knew she was the attorney for my custody case. Her Christian values drive how she conducts herself in business. She is also a strong advocate for father's rights. Her team explained legal terms and steps to the process. They are easy to get in touch with and have a great staff to help each client through very stressful times. I have recommended them to numerous people and will continue to do so.

Option Sniper54

New Beginnings was just what I needed when it came time to have a strong presence from an attorney. Going through the legal system is a slow process and a stressful one at that. I highly recommend New Beginnings for anyone dealing with family court issues. The entire staff was pleasant and very professional.

Lydia Ingram

This business is phenomenally personal. For what was a terrifying situation, they were welcoming, inclusive, efficient, and personable. Every visit to the office was friendly and familiar. Every decision was followed by expedited action. I am so grateful that a potentially miserable process was made so much easier.

Tremain Whatley

This law firm was horrible. Ruby Panter might as well go back to college. They handled a case for my girlfriend and they where the most unprofessional law firm she or I have ever dealt with. We where referred to this law firm from a friend who had worked with Kristina. They told us she was no longer a attorney when in fact she is still a attorney she has just created her own firm now.(Kristina is the attorney we wanted) They will charge you a arm and a leg and then on court day they will come in and not be prepared at all. Do you and your family a favor and avoid this law firm at all cost. Take your money elsewhere!!!!

Savannah Nafe

I had a consultation today with Ruby regarding a divorce and was extremely disappointed with it. The entire time it felt like I was talking with an opposing attorney. Ruby was very judgemental and condescending. I am a stay at home mom hoping for support until I can get situated and Ruby acted as if I did not deserve it, several time suggesting I start looking for a job. My son has Becker’s Muscle Dystrophy and she did not take into account any needs he may have in the future and advised I get concret plans for him, which anyone remotely aware of the disease would know is impossible. It felt like after the first few minutes Ruby had already decided that I should only receive the bare minimum. I would not refer anyone to her, especially women. If I continue with the divorce I will not be using Ruby and the New Beginnings Law firm. My advise is to stay away and find a more considerate law firm that will actually have your best interest.

Sylvia Schmitt

James Family Law was that beacon of hope I was looking for. My family is now more complete than I could ever hope for and I never doubted success. I have never felt more confident in a law firm and I can guarantee the team at James Family Law is now an integral part of my family for years to come. I would recommend this more than competent and reliable group to anyone, especially fathers and soldiers. My life feels more complete, and yours could to. Thank you Amber James, Esq.

Tommie Robinson

Amber and all of her staff are amazing. She went to war for me and my children. Amber is amazingly compassionate and has great foresight. Ruby is amazingly quirky and compassionate. Preston is amazingly attentive and goes the extra miles. Pam is amazingly awesome and thorough and compassionate. Brandy is amazingly compassionate and professional. Tara is amazingly helpful and responsive. Brittney is amazing behind the scenes. They are all amazing and compassionate.

Was fast and thorough and a very awesome team.

Gaynell Adams

Very attentive to what you requested. Did not direct me but gave me everything I asked for. Very nice person, clean work place. I did receive a discount at the end. Glad I’m divorced.

Sandra Webber

When I worked with New Beginnings Family Law in Huntsville they were always extremely prompt in returning my phone calls and emails which helps alleviate some of the stress which comes in these times. I was very well informed of every action taken and all of the possible outcomes of these actions. They have also been very accommodating and flexible with my payments and billing options due to the duration and complexity of my case.

Sharetta Cook

I would like to thank David and Monica for handling my Child Support Modification. The process went smooth and an agreement was made between myself and my ex husband in a timely manner.

Chris cannatella

It's difficult to put in words just how amazing Amber in her staff are. I've had Amber as my lawyer since 2007 and have used her services many times. Through the years we have established a family like relationship. Amber is very kind, understanding, and passionate about helping others. She always has your best interest and is very knowledgeable and wise in her decisions. I could not imagine where I or my children would be without having Amber there to support us and guide us to a healthy life. Thank you Amber!! I can't thank you enough. You are truly a blessing to me and my children.

Ashley Burkehyygvxzftgf.

Love this firm! They treat every one like family and I am impressed with their attention to detail and care they provide to their clients. I will continue to refer them every chance I get.

Joanna Sterling

Ruby and her team are the best. We didn’t think we had a chance of winning our custody suit but Ruby gave us hope and worked hard for us She explained the process and kept us calm in trying times. We have our girls now and we cannot thank them enough. We highly recommend Ruby and her team

Margaret Peters

Ms. James is an absolutely brilliant attorney. It is one thing to trust someone as a professional, its entirely something else when you trust them as a person. Ms. James did so much for me and I would recommend her to anyone in need.

Kelly Phelps

Kristina was very helpful during my time of need. She handled my case in a professional manner and remained in constant contact with me. she answered all of my questions and in kept me at ease in general throughout this whole process.I would recommend her to anyone needing an attorney.
