Stephanie Mathiesen

Stephanie mathiesen review I have never left a review for anything in my life. I used Stephanie mathiesen for a custody case years ago, which was a huge mistake. I could write pages of reasons why but to keep it short as possible , she wasn’t even there when my case was called multiple times, ...she couldn’t be worse with reliability and communication if she tried. I just read her other reviews and cannot believe how similar my experience with her was. I stopped using her and switched to legal aid and actually got the results I was fighting for. The legal aid attorney actually did what I hired Stephanie to do. I will literally take the time out of my day to tell anyone that may hire her details of why you shouldn’t. I know nothing about other attorneys in her firm but don’t confuse the firms review ratings with her personal ratings. I even attached a screenshot of how reliable and responsive she is and that’s just a single one lol. In hindsight it’s almost laughable that she could even be recognized as an option to represent someone in a custody dispute. Thank god for legal aid because in my case they did what Stephanie couldn’t

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’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.

When I retained Stephanie, she mentioned she would be handling the custody/visitation and child support under the one retainer. Well,, the communication was already an issue until I brought it up to Mr. Zimmer. She would fail to communicate court dates etc.. She handled the visitation anddid what she... had to do for the case. I questioned the child support on 3 occasions with her saying she would look into it and I never received a response. She did nothing else after the visitation and never did get back to me but they make sure to charge my account every month.
