They do what they say they'll do on time and for about the same money and are helpful, not insistent or demanding. Don't bite on Prepared Legal's advertised $50 per-service rate. Can hardly wait to see how the staff-sargeant woman at Prepared Legal justifies how she mistreated me. This is a money-first outfit.

Linda has exceeded our expectations with her legal skill, professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine empathy.

Although the case is still ongoing, having Linda by my friend's side gives us strong confidence in a favorable outcome.

I have worked with Rick Eldridge since 2023, initially for consultation around visitation issues…read morethat arose after I was granted a three-year DVRO (which I handled pro per). I later retained Rick on a limited-scope basis for visitation and custody matters. Each time I have consulted or retained him, I have seen meaningful progress and outcomes in my favor. What sets Rick apart is not just his deep experience in family law, but his ability to explain how judges actually think and view cases from the other side. He consistently challenges me to see how my actions and filings will be perceived by the court, which has helped me avoid unintentionally sabotaging my own case. That insight into courtroom psychology and judicial reasoning has been invaluable. Rick doesn't just give legal advice -- he teaches you how to be strategic, credible, and effective in court. I've learned what I jokingly call "legal aikido" from him: how to stay grounded, measured, and focused on long-term outcomes even in emotionally charged situations. Through Rick's guidance, I've also learned radical acceptance -- how to work within the reality of the court system as it exists, not as I wish it were. He has helped me learn how to negotiate effectively in mediation, especially around safety-focused terms related to custody and visitation, so that agreements are practical, enforceable, and centered on protection and stability rather than reactive conflict. That skill alone has fundamentally changed how I approach my case. Because I continue to have access to Rick and his team for guidance, I feel supported while still being empowered to represent myself pro per. That balance -- being coached without being overrun -- has been incredibly important to me and my case. I am especially grateful to Angela Perry, Rick's legal assistant, for her kindness, empathy, and willingness to step in and help in the ways she can. Her humanity and professionalism have made a stressful legal process feel far more manageable. Deborah Eldridge also deserves recognition for being part of a team that genuinely operates with care and integrity. In an era of large corporate firms that often feel transactional, Rick and his team bring something rare: heart, wisdom, and genuine care for the people they represent. I never feel like just another case file. I feel like my outcomes actually matter to them. I highly recommend Rick Eldridge and his team to anyone navigating family court who wants experienced guidance, honest feedback, and attorneys who truly care about doing right by their clients.

I was stressed, paranoid and wanted to ensure my family was taken care of should anything happen to me. Through ARAG, I found Heather Mayer and she helped me with getting my child's name change and helped me established a living trust as well. Heather was patient and informative as I was new to both of these processes. She answered all my questions, and always made the entire process stress free. Even weeks after the court paperwork were done for the name change, she offered to notarize the county paperwork for free! Finding the right lawyer is an intimidating process, but Heather treats you like a friend and never makes you feel like just another number. She is kind, personable and responsive. I highly recommend Heather and will definitely refer her all my family, friends and even strangers because she is that good!
