It was complex and drawn out, but I always felt that I had the best team on my side fighting for me. Darren & Alexa were always available and quick to respond. The knowledge of the law that these two have is impeccable and it certainly helped with handling my case. I cannot thank Darren, Alexa, and the team enough for all they have done for me. I highly recommend them for any divorce/child custody case.

Karri Lueddeke and her team represented me on a complicated lawsuit with a contractor. Based on my…read moreexperience, I would highly recommend them. Over the months it took to settle the case, she was always on top of the intricate details (who said what to who, what the other party did, etc.) On more than one occasion during depositions, just as I was thinking "I hope she asks XXX", she did. I was a very "involved" client who asked a myriad of questions and she was amazing, always ready to explain the best legal strategy to deal with the convoluted case. The case expanded beyond initial expectations and Karri increased her efforts accordingly. Her entire team was also impressive, always ready to support the case. Thank you.

I had what I think is a very unique experience in that Barbara Burns was not my attorney. I was…read moreselling my business to her client, and so she was his attorney. That could have put her in an adversarial role, but quite the opposite was my experience. Here's what was so impressive about Barbara: Most of us expect a lawyer to look for ways to create controversy or conflict to run up their fees. Barbara never did this. Ever. From the very first document she drafted to the very last, everything she presented was (a) totally fair and (b) totally necessary. This is not to say she wasn't vigilant. She clearly knew exactly what was required for a strong, safe and legal transaction and made sure every "i" was dotted and every "t" crossed. And she accomplished this with maximum efficiency. I can be certain she did a fantastic job partly because I had the help of friend who is on the legal team of a very large firm. (You would recognize the name.) He carefully reviewed everything submitted to me and gave her five stars for how each and every document was presented. It was clear that she immediately earned his respect. All of this and add that she is a very down-to-earth likable person. This kind of courtesy, ethics and competency are what we all most want from a great lawyer and I can assure you that if I ever need a lawyer to represent me, Barbara will be my first call.

DON'T MAKE THE HALF MILLION DOLLAR MISTAKE I'VE MADE WITH THIS AWFUL LAWYER…read more Valerie is the most incompetent lawyer I have ever came across. She costed me $10,0000 more over asking price on my property. See attached image. This lady is reckless and she has regard to the basic values. From the start I had a feeling that she was not the best person to work with but she was referred by our realtor unfortunately I had to pay the price. When she does her attorney review, it's like she's doing 20 things at once, you hear her cooking, dishes and noise and she always rushed you through and sure enough after our realtor carefully reviewed comps with us and made an offer for 580k waiving appraisal to 570k she just worded everything backwards and almost killed our deal. And we just had to bring the extra money at closing. Believe me you could do better, don't deal with lady as her work ethic is below average.

Unfortunately due to not being able to provide all of the documentation, we could never file. Wish we knew that before I gave them $7,500. At the end when I asked for a refund of a small amount of $600-700, they billed me that day for 3.7 hours... years later... so they didn't have to refund me. Well they suddenly booked 3.7 hours 2 YEARS later. For what? For sending me a bill. Liars and cheaters. Amy Crank bills like she's an attorney and she's a glorified secretary. Sad story over there.
