An honest and trustworthy attorney

Thank you for helping with my parents divorce. Other attorneys kept siding with the wrong party in this matter. They have advise which was more of an opinion than what law says. I’m so grateful to have found Ryan!! Ryan was honest, said what best made sense and did what was best in my parents situat...ion. He explained his reasoning as to why he felt what was best and made sure we understood him. Ryan is a blessing to me in this situation!

Posted by Heather | November 09, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Above and beyond my expectations!

I originally consulted with Ryan in 2019 to obtain a legal custody arrangement for my 3 children. My husband and I had separated a year prior and had only had a verbal agreement between the two of us. Ryan made sure to thoroughly explain all of my options and the process that would take place. Ryan w...alked me through each step as we approached them, always staying in constant communication and answering every question I had. I felt heard and understood the entire time. Months after the custody arrangement was set in place, I contacted Ryan again to proceed with filing for divorce. Again, he went above and beyond my expectations. Even in the midst of the COVID pandemic, Ryan remained in constant contact with me and always answered my every question in a timely manner. I was very nervous going into these legal situations, as I had never had to hire a lawyer or even go through anything like this before. Ryan helped to ease my fears and anxieties. He worked hard for me and I will be sure to return to him for any future legal matters, should they arrise.

Ryan helped me expedite my divorce after two long years. He was very knowledgeable and understanding of my situation and worked to get the divorce finalized in a short amount of time. Highly recommend.

Professional Attorney

From my initial consultation, Ryan's professionalism and knowledge of family law stood out. Throughout my situation, Ryan kept focus on what my ultimate goals were and was instrumental in enabling me to achieve those. Ryan was always prepared and submitted necessary documents ahead of schedule, alw...ays keeping me up to date on the progression of the case. Every encounter I had with Ryan was one where he gave me undivided attention and guidance on how to best proceed. Ryan is an ethical attorney who has his client's best interest in mind. If needed in the future, I would feel very confident in having Ryan represent me.

"Ryan is a confident and knowledgeable attorney who truly cares about his clients and the outcome of their case. As a former colleague of Ryan's I worked closely with him on family law matters and experienced first-hand the level of dedication and professionalism that Ryan applies to each case. He is easy to talk to and makes clients and other attorneys feel comfortable. Ryan settles many cases while still strongly advocating for his client, an approach that is often best for all parties involved. Ryan will also fight fiercely in court when necessary. I strongly recommend Ryan for any family law matter."
