    I am making an amendment to my first Yelp review! My first experience was with David Bartels with…read morethe Shep Law Group, however, I do not think he is there anymore! My divorce lasted a year and a half, and I didn't end up getting even visitation with my children, and I am the woman! Usually it is the man that doesn't get any custody! I was absolutely heartbroken! I've never heard of anyone getting divorced from their children! I know Ron and Brenda tried everything they could, I just believe that the court system is very corrupt! I spent $70,000 and I didn't get any custody not even visitation, as it sits right now. I don't know if I will ever see my children again! I did get a settlement that was my God given right to have! I still believe my husband made out with so much money that was hidden. Honestly, the whole thing was the biggest disappointment of my whole entire life! I have to learn how to go on with my life without my children, money doesn't really matter! I was gonna get some no matter what! I gave Ron and Brenda, five stars because of how hard they tried! My husband just had more money and better lies!

    Hired him to recover my property i was awarded in the divorce that she refused to turn over after…read moremonths of trying to get it. For months he promised to file contempt and civil actions to get monetary value for my property. First it was he didnt want to file because our home was for sale and didnt want to "stir up a hornets nest" because i needed her signature to close the home as the market was plummeting. She filed frivolous motion after motion and emails pro se burning through thousands of my money and he couldnt even best a half wit at hearings. When house finally closed i demanded he file now after 4 months of burning through 9k in my money never recovering any of my property. Even after the sale he came up with excuse after excuse as to why he hadnt filed. He finally sent a demand letter in mid Jan giving her 10 days to pay or suit was finally being filed. 2 weeks after deadline i asked when suit was being filed and just after he asked for yet another 4k for my trust he sent me a letter stating he was dropping me as a client. So he billed me thousands for paperwork and demand letters after asking me to get my missing property from the 80k mark down to 35k so he could file in magistrate in order to recover attorneys fees. Weeks of prep and attorneys fees for a demand letter never filed. Only 2 times we appeared at hearings he was late both times. First time the judge was caught in the same accident traffic so he got a pass from the judge. Second time the judge was on time and kept pushing my hearing because he still wasnt there until the very last case of the hour. I dont care how much traffic there is Meridian to Caldwell isnt a 200 mile commute as a professional you should leave earlier. ******This review was edited after Mr Shepherd sent me a threatening email to sue a 100% disabled vet who is actually going in for spinal procedures at the hospital in 2 hours which further stresses a person who he was hired to protect. To answer his what i believe untruthful response because this is what he will do when he represents you. He states i "wanted to litigate against his advice". He was the one who stated i had a strong case for liquidation of my property to herself for pennies on the dollar. He wanted me to get it into magistrate court and have the emails stating such so i followed his "expert" opinion and got my actual damages down from 80k to 35k as he suggested. At no time did he tell me to not to litigate any further and anyone who wants to view the emails to that fact is free to see them showing i did everything he asked to sue for damages. He took my case to litigate and shouldnt have if he truly advised against it. As for all the other nonsense i couldve done everything else pro se and paid nothing. For anyone reading these reviews watch how he attacks the poster in all of them that is what our experience was behind closed doors was even worse for us in our opinion.

    I've worked with four attorneys before Reginald Holmquist and fired every one of them so…read moreunfortunately I have a pretty substantial basis for comparison. Reggie stands apart from every one of them. What impressed me most wasn't simply the outcome of my case. It was his character throughout it although he did get me primary custody of my son before even going to trial while doing remarkably little to get it. I can wholeheartedly say that every decision he made was the right one. Reggie is a genuinely good human being with integrity. He never made me feel like I was just another case file or another source of billable hours. He took the time to understand what actually mattered, listened when I had concerns, gave me straightforward advice even when it wasn't necessarily what I wanted to hear, and treated the wellbeing of my son as something that genuinely mattered to him. I was also incredibly impressed by how conscientious he was with my money. Anyone who has been involved in prolonged litigation knows how quickly attorney fees can become overwhelming. Reggie was remarkably mindful of that. He didn't manufacture work, drag out conversations, or turn every minor issue into another billing opportunity I very consistently got the distinct impression that he was actively trying to accomplish what needed to be accomplished while costing me as little as reasonably possible. That kind of restraint and integrity is rare in any profession, but it means an enormous amount when you are already dealing with the financial and emotional weight of a custody case. Most importantly, I felt like I had an attorney who actually cared about me and my son. There is an enormous difference between hiring someone who is technically representing you and having someone in your corner who takes his responsibility to you seriously. With Reggie, I felt the latter. No attorney can control every variable in a case or guarantee an outcome. What they can control is their preparation, judgment, honesty, integrity, and how they treat the people who have entrusted them with something incredibly important. On those measures, I could not recommend Reggie more highly. After my experiences with other attorneys, I had become pretty cynical about the profession. Reggie earned back a great deal of my respect for it. If you are looking for an attorney who is competent, conscientious, ethical, financially respectful, strategic and perhaps most importantly, still remembers that the people behind these cases are human beings, I would recommend Reginald Holmquist without hesitation. $3k to Reggie got me more than $100k dollars from the other 4 combined. Nothing in life is more expensive than a bad cheap lawyer.

    Matt Hanson did a phenomenal job helping me out with my case. He has a lot of contacts within' the…read morecourt system and used all of them to my benefit. Matt went the extra mile for me and showed that there are GENUINE attorneys out there who truly care. I would definitely recommend Matt Hanson for any of your legal needs.
