Consumate Professional

•Faced with a contentious divorce 14 years ago, I was fortunate to have Kieth Rieger represent me. I found strong support, calming guidance, and brilliant legal advice, all of which came at a critical time. All these years later I turned to him once again, this time to help me write a pre-nup agreeme...nt as I began a new life. He is a trusted professional who I have recommended many times.

An excellent attorney for getting a Win-Win Divorce

When I considered getting a divorce, I wanted to assert my rights while at the same time making sure I wasn’t being unfair to my spouse, and preserving the good relationship I had with my children. Kieth Rieger took the time to understand what I was hoping to achieve, and dealt fairly with me and wit...h my spouse. I understand that matrimonial law is inherently adversarial, but I felt that Kieth helped keep it from being more adversarial than absolutely necessary. The end result: a settlement in which both sides got what we needed, in which my parenting relationship with my ex is a productive and civil one, and in which the children are comfortable and cared for. It’s hard to be excited about a divorce, particularly one that ends up in the courts, but Kieth made it as fair and painless as possible.

Kieth Reiger

Kieth headed the team that navigated me through the most difficult time of my life. My divorce was very lengthy, and uglier than most. Kieth litigated brilliantly and made certain the outcome would be just and fair. Karen D.

Skilled and Honest

As an attorney myself, I was aware of Kieth's reputation as a highly regarded matrimonial lawyer. When the need arose, I consulted with him and hired him on the spot. Having worked closely with him for 2 years, I found him to be patient, knowledgeable and well received in the courtroom. With his advi...ce and guidance, my matter was resolved very much to my satisfaction. I could not have asked for better representation.

Solutions focused, multi functional attorney and a joy to work with

Kieth Rieger is a superior attorney and I was able to benefit from his ability to process large volumes of information quickly and formulate effective strategy. Kieth was extremely accommodating and sensitive when he represented my case yet firm and commanding when warranted.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
