Hard working, compassionate and efficient

Alan Meincke was an excellent divorce lawyer. He attended to all of my needs in a thorough and timely manner.

Excellent and highly recommended

I had a highly contentious and complicated child custody case which Alan came in and straightened all out. I honestly feel like he saved my life in so many ways. He’s a brilliant attoney, hard working, very responsive, level headed and very honest. I highly recommend Alan to anyone and I personally w...ill be a client for life and I mean that with the utmost sincerity.

Amazing Attorney and knowledgeable!

To whom in may concern: If you are reading these reviews it is because you are considering hiring Alan to represent you. I can assure that you are making the right choice. I had a difficult case and he owned it from the beginning. He showed and proved to be very knowledgeable and effective. Unfo...rtunately, we had to go to a Jury Trial and it was not my choice. He took the time to coach me as much as possible, gather as much evidence and performed a lot of work behind the scenes so he could be prepared for trial and there were no surprises. During the 4 day jury trial, he was able to determine that the other party was lying and they were impeach and found guilty. I was acquitted from anyone all the charges and he was able to protect all my assets. From my experience working with Alan, I can say with great certainty. That he is an amazing attorney, diligent, knowledgeable, dedicated, determine and with great values. I can promise that I don't want to relive and/or repeat the that stage of my past. However, if I had to do it over? I would not want anyone else to represent me but Alan. If you are looking for someone to represent you, look no further than Alan H. Meincke as you will be glad you did. Furthermore, you can ask Alan to perform a conference call so I can provide you with a verbal reference if you so wish to take it that far. Alan, I am grateful to have worked with you, your dedication, determination and always working hard in order to obtain the results that we had. I will be forever grateful! Mike Sz

Excellent Attorney!!!

I recommend Alan without any hesitation! He is courteous, professional, prompt, and I always felt like he had my back! I always give his contact information when someone asks if I can send a referral. He had my divorce finalized within 4 months, which included separation of assets and child custody. ...He was very prompt with all of my needs and questions!
