Stephanie Mathiesen

Steer clear! Stephanie defaulted on motions for contempt filed against me. She did not even attempt to advocate for me as her retainer stated she would. On the day of the sentencing hearing she did not want to go to court and face the judge so she forced me to sign a consent to change attorney form a...nd sent me to court alone up against a seasoned attorney. To make matters worse she allowed my children to fall through the cracks of a terrible arrangement AND (unsuccessfully) sued me for counsel fees! Save your money and your children!

Stephanie has been my lawyer now for a couple of years and assisted me through my divorce and further custodial battles after that. She is professional, friendly, kind, and very easy to speak to. She pays attention to detail and has provided me with support and guidance. Stephanie is extremely knowle...dgeable and has always had me feeling at ease throughout the court process. I highly recommend Stephanie!

I was originally pleased with Ms,Mathiesen's work from the time I hired her to handle my divorce in August 2021 through early 2022. At that point things abruptly changed. She failed to provide the other attorney with documents I submitted in August 2021 . This came out during a court appearance in... February 2022. From that point on multiple instances of unanswered e-mails, promised phone calls that never came, last minute notice of court appearances, continuances, adjournments. At that point I downloaded the court calendar and now ask her to confirm that posted scheduled dates are still on. Money owed to me from my spouse that I was told would be coming never did. On all issues I have documentation. Changes in my monthly fee without any explanation. I've used lawyers for house closings, adverse possession case, litigation against a state agency. I never experienced the lack of communication and lack of professionalism as I have now.

I’m a single mom and possibly going through a custody battle I felt scared and alone. I met with a few lawyers before finally meeting with Stephanie. She made me feel at ease and comfortable. She was kind and understanding and knew what she was doing. I highly recommend her if you’re in the search fo...r a custody lawyer.
