He was professional, but also helped me find moments of joy and humility in our time together. He was punctual and beyond prepared. There was an ease in his presence that immediately made me feel the same while we were in the court room. Though I hope I don't have the pleasure of working with him professionally in the future- I whole heartedly endorse his practice and his skilled team. Thank you, Kirk!

I went to them to find a Family Law attorney. I requested a consultation. I was met with an email…read morethat they would decline representation. When asked why, the Associate Attorney Nixon wrote only "We Are Declining Representation" and blocked my email. I just wanted to know if there was a conflict of interest. Have heard that some of their attorneys are sexist against men, so being male, not surprised at the response.

Susan Peterson-Lerdahl completed my trust and my healthcare directive and I was overall very happy…read morewith the entire process. Susan is very knowledgeable and was able to help me with my estate that essentially covered everything that could possibly happen and was very informative in the process. I was happy with the entire group. For a simple trust/ estate and HCD without many assets, it cost $3,445.36. There was a misunderstanding initially that had to be re-worked, and initially they charged me to fix it, but they quickly adjusted the bill when I inquired about it, which I was thankful for. I would overall recommend this group to anyone considering creating a trust. That is what Susan Peterson-Lerdahl specializes in, and she does an excellent job.

. First, my understanding of mediation was that the mediator would help the 2 sides to work…read moretogether to come up with a mutually agreeable solution. That did not happen. Quite the opposite. And any trust I had in the mediator, their skill, their mediation process was completely eliminated. It was a terrifying experience. I can say the experience was not as bad as physical violence. Afterwards I sat in my car in the parking lot reeling. I didn't think I was going to be able to drive home. I made it home okay. Let me tell you what was on me: I did not ask the questions of the mediator I now know I needed to ask. Like, "What is on the agenda?" "What will happen in this session?" What financial documentation do you require? What financial documentation do you use? What do you do if that documentation is missing?? What do you do if someone starts yelling and screaming to get their way? So, do your homework. GRILL your attorney on how they will advocate for you. Talk through various scenarios. Go in thoroughly prepared. GRILL the mediators you are thinking of hiring. GRILL THEM. Make them cough up every detail of what they are going to do. And NEVER, EVER, EVER go into a financial mediation when the opposing party has not completely disclosed their financials. At best it is a waste of your time and money. Even if your attorney, financial advisor, accountant, and every other advisor says it will be fine, they can submit financials later, DON'T DO IT!! If Matthew, Mark, Luke and John tell you go to mediation anyway, DO NOT DO IT!!! It just puts you at a terrible disadvantage. The 1 session cost me $2055. It was an extremely painful lesson. So Please don't make the mistakes I made! Do it better. Best wishes to you all.
