If you are seeking a divorce attorney, I highly recommend both Grant James and Connie Thacker, with Thacker Sleight PC. Throughout the entire painful process of divorce, they were professional, knowledgeable and responsive. What I appreciated the most was Grant and Connie's ability to be strong legal advocates for me, yet demonstrate a terrific amount of compassion throughout the process. If you are looking for an attorney who is experienced, trustworthy, and truly cares about their clients, I would not hesitate to recommend them.

I cannot say enough about Attorneys Allison, Connie, Grant, and the entire team at ThackerSleight. I am currently in the middle of one of the most complex, exhausting, and emotionally draining legal battles of my life, and this team has stood by me every step of the way. The case has already involved hearings, filings in multiple courts and counties, extensive briefs, appeals, and proceedings that have reached as high as the Michigan Supreme Court — and throughout it all, they have never wavered. As a father fighting for my rights while facing outrageous parental alienation claims, there are moments when the process feels overwhelming and unfair. ThackerSleight has never treated me like just another case. They listen. They care. They collaborate with experts, challenge a deeply flawed process, and continue to fight relentlessly even when the odds feel stacked against us. When the road is long and the pressure is high, they remain focused, prepared, and fully committed. Even though the case is still ongoing, I can already say that their dedication, integrity, and refusal to back down have made a profound difference — not just legally, but personally. If you are looking for attorneys who will truly fight for you, stand with you, and keep pushing forward when it matters most, I cannot recommend ThackerSleight highly enough. I am grateful to have them in my corner and would recommend their team without hesitation.
Allison was unfortunately faced with an uphill battle defending my divorce rights. She and her team had a matter of days before my trial to get every detail of my case - and a matter of hours before they finally received all of it. They were more than expeditious when they didn’t need to be and were no-nonsense every step of the way. I couldn’t recommend Allison enough to anyone who is getting severely taken advantage of. I only wished I had contacted her right away!! How anyone could leave a poor review is beyond me. I had a 5⭐️ experience despite insurmountable odds! Seriously, don’t hesitate!
Thacker Sleight is truly the best in the Grand Rapids area. They took what another national firm had badly mishandled for 2 years, put me back into a healthy position, and settled a contentious family situation quickly and effectively. I can't recommend anyone else in West Michigan, and I did my research, to my own detriment.
Connie and her team are absolutely the best! She was so amazing helping my sister with her divorce. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER if you are looking for an attorney who gets the job done!! You won’t find a better attorney!! Thank you Connie and your staff for EVERYTHING!!
