Honest, knowledgeable, thorough, efficient, to-the-point, highly professional, caring

Astrid represented me in a family case that turned quite complicated. She was dedicated, very thorough and thanks to her, I was able to reach an agreement without having to go to trial. She is very powerful with her words and presence, leaving no stone unturned. She does not back down. She is caring ...and passionate and I was very happy the she was the one representing me. She was always available to respond to my emails/phone calls quickly. She constantly kept me updated with the progress of the case. I could write all day long and it still would not be enough to praise how dedicated and fair Astrid is. If you are looking for someone who has your best interest in heart, Astrid is the perfect choice of an attorney for you. Thank you, Astrid!!!!!

Professional, Compassionate Advocate

I hired Ms. Bismarck to help me with a jurisdictional case and paternity action against my ex. I am originally from Iowa and what immediately caught my attention was seeing that Ms. Bismarck is also originally from the Midwest. Midwestern values and qualities hold strong in my personal opinion. After... further review, it became very apparent that Ms. Bismarck is an expert in her field. After speaking with Ms. Bismarck over the phone, I immediately knew she was the woman for the job! She is highly intelligent, professional and, above all, compassionate, empathetic, and genuinely cares about her clients! Ms. Bismarck kept open communication with me the entire length of our professional relationship. She would immediately update me with any new developments, which i greatly appreciated as we were 1,500 miles apart. One thing that was truly 'nail biting' with my case is there was no prior case law to site as it was very unique in nature. Meaning - it was not going to be an easy victory by any means. However, Ms. Bismarck never conceded and was willing to fight on my behalf. Her confidence and support, and 'cut throat' class in the courtroom radiated and ultimately we were successful in winning my case! Thanks to Ms. Bismarck, my children and I have been able to remain home! I feel truly blessed to have found Ms. Bismarck and will never forget the superior service she provided for my family and I. I highly recommend Ms. Bismarck to anyone facing a legal action. She won't let you down!

Excellent Lawyer, Efficient, To-the-Point.

Ms. Astrid Bismarck became my lawyer after I tried, for a long time by myself, to establish my parental rights against people with a lot of money and power and endless access to legal services. She is an excellent lawyer, efficient, to-the-point. Fast, knowledgeable, analytical and logical. Empathi...c, but above all: fact-driven, with an impeccable code of ethics. Ms. Bismarck will always use her mediation skills first to get to reasonable solutions. With perseverance, she is advocating my case and will fight firmly for my rights, which are in the best interest of the children.

She is definitely my first choice!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known her since about 1998. She has been very attentive to every client that I have sent her. In addition, several times we have participated in the same case (with her handling the family aspect and myself handling the estate planning side) and she has not only done a great job on the legal work but she has been good at relating to the clients (getting back to them on time, helping with issues that are not purely legal, etc)."
