from our clients

  • Mr. Govan took over my divorce and child support case. I was not allowed to be in the States so I needed a lawyer that I could fully trust.

  • I contacted attorney Govan after my ex filed a motion to modify the parental rights and responsibilities order in response to the motion I had filed to enforce child support...

    — M.C., Saco, Maine
  • I have been in and out of court for close to 4 years with my ex-husband over custody of our 15 year old son. Even though my son wanted to live with his father, I felt it was in my son's best interest to remain with me in a stable, healthy environment.
