About Beth
Beth Crawford earned her Juris Doctor from the William H. Bowen School of Law in 2010. She moved into private practice after law school and has spent the years since building a practice centered on family and domestic relations matters. Her legal education laid the groundwork for courtroom work and case management that she would later take into contested family proceedings.
Early in her career she developed a steady caseload of divorce, custody, and support matters. Over time she took on roles that required closer involvement in child welfare and custody assessments. That trajectory led to state certification as a Domestic Relations Ad Litem. The certification is granted through the Arkansas Office of the Courts and qualifies an attorney to serve as a court-appointed representative for children in parenting disputes.
As a Certified Domestic Relations Ad Litem, she prepares independent recommendations for judges, conducts interviews, and reviews records relevant to custody and visitation. The work requires careful fact-finding, clear written reports, and the ability to present findings in court. Her role in these cases places her at the intersection of legal procedure and the practical realities families face during separation and custody disputes.
Crawford’s courtroom experience includes contested hearings and negotiated settlements. She handles initial pleadings and discovery, attends mediation sessions, and presents testimony when trials are necessary. She also prepares parents for the procedural aspects of family court. Her approach is methodical and case-focused. She aims to give judges the factual clarity they need to decide custody questions.
She practices at Crawford Law Office, P.A., where she represents clients in a range of family law matters. The office provides services to individuals navigating divorce, child custody disputes, child support calculations, and post-judgment enforcement. Her role as an ad litem frequently overlaps with the firm’s broader work in domestic relations—serving the needs of both parents and courts in complex family law situations.
Outside the courtroom she keeps current on procedural developments and local court practices that affect family law cases. That ongoing attention helps when preparing reports for the bench or advising clients on realistic outcomes. She continues to serve as a court-appointed domestic relations ad litem and to represent clients through the full lifecycle of family law disputes. She currently practices at Crawford Law Office, P.A., where her work centers on family law and domestic relations matters.
