Evan Wiederkehr

I was referred to Mr. Wiederkehr by my cousin who used Evan during his messy divorce. My cousin had nothing but praise for Mr. Wiederkehr. But never in my wildest dreams did I expect to go through the same experience-- if not worse. But Evan walked me through every step of the process from beginning... to end in what turned out to be a four year ordeal. It was messy, complicated and intense. But Evan met and surpassed every single challenge that came our way. Highly articulate, competent, completely on TOP of his game, Evan went beyond the call of duty for me and secured an excellent settlement. But more importantly, he helped me successfully close that horrible chapter in my life and move on financially. From his court appearances before different judges ( and there were quite a few!) to all his affidavits-- his eloquence, thoroughness, and excellence in representing me went beyond par. I highly and wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Wiederkehr to anyone facing similar challenges. He will not let you down.

I met Evan Wiederkehr in April 2011, having been cast into an unanticipated need for a divorce attorney. I had two small children at home, a full-time job, an apartment I could not afford without support, and I was operating in a fog. I was devastated. I spoke with seven attorneys prior to choosing... to work with Evan, from a "shark" on Wall Street to an eccentric woman who worked out of her chaotic apartment on the UWS. From the outset, Evan was patient, genuinely caring, and, most importantly, exceeding sharp with divorce law. He understood that being with my children was priority number one. He worked tirelessly through every step of the process to assure I would remain the primary caregiver and financially be able to care for them as they deserve. He left no stone unturned. I can't count the number of times he told me to trust him, I have, and I came out on top. I was maneuvering entirely unfamiliar territory. He was ready, willing, and able to answer every question I had, even occasionally during off hours. He calmed my fears. He reassured me that I and my kids would be ok. We are. I have continued to consult Evan since my divorce was finalized. He gives me sound advice, even when it may not be what I want to hear; for that I am forever grateful. Life can take unexpected turns. You accept it, deal with it, and move on. Attorneys like Evan are there to help.

If you are looking for an extraordinary family lawyer who is effective and responsive, Evan Wiederkehr will exceed your expectations. We had a complicated custody case that involved relocation, and demanded deep knowledge of New York law. We hired a lawyer who turned out to be completely incompet...ent, did the bare minimum, and lied to us about when she filed in court. We still have yet to get our money back. We lost precious time. Choosing the wrong lawyer comes with a high price financially as well as impacting children’s lives. In the midst of our legal crisis, Evan was recommended to us by a fellow lawyer, a friend of his father’s. Evan quickly mastered the complexity of our case. He is bright, personable, competent, and genuinely cares about his clients. His humorous wit was an added bonus to alleviate stress during tough court hearings and negotiations. Evan made an effort to truly understand the details of our case and to represent us fairly. He gained our full trust and was always candid if he did not agree with us. Even though the respondent’s lawyers were threatening, bullying, and unprofessional, Evan maintained his professionalism speaking with distinction, force, and conviction. Evan’s interactions with judges, lawyers, parents, child advocates, and others were always first-class and authoritative. Most importantly, Evan skillfully resolved our case, and we were granted relocation for the children. We rarely give completely unqualified recommendations, but in this case, we recommend Evan Weiderkehr without reservations. He was devoted to our family, and our family is forever grateful.
