Divorce

Outstanding lawyer and person! Excellent team approach with management of my divorce. Truly professional and kind from the 1st phone conversation to the very end. Extremely efficient and thoroughly trustworthy. I have already referred 2 friends to him for litigation services. Highly recommend!!!

Solution oriented

I retained Ehren Slagle's service in February 2015 for what we both hoped to be a smooth dissolution. My spouse refused to engage in the peaceful process so it escalated into a contested, high-conflict divorce. Given Ehren's knowledge and expertise, he consulted with me and explained my options. Once... decisions were made, he promptly followed through and communicated with me on a regular basis. Through the process, I didn't just see Ehren practice law, but study law to find solutions for my difficult case. While in the courtroom, Ehren was always prepared, professional, and appropriately aggressive towards opposing counsel. I am thankful I retained a highly skilled attorney that advocated for me with integrity. The divorce process can be difficult, but I now have peace with my decision and favorable outcome as a result of Ehren's hard work on my case. I would recommend Collins and Slagle's firm if you are seeking out representation that is honest, talented, committed, responsive and scholarly. Thank you Ehren. This decision has changed my life for the better and I could not be prouder that we stood tall and battled for my hard earned retirement but also my freedom. Life is good and God is good. FIST BUMP!

Practical Yet Realistic

Ehren is definitely someone who understands and has mastered his craft! He has a truthful way of letting me know the harsh realities of the legal system while not being demeaning. Ehren was great at letting me know when I had flexible options...and then explaining each in good detail, or in other c...ases when there was only limited courses of action that could be taken. I appreciated that Ehren never made promises about what would happen inside the courtroom, yet he had a excellent "knack" for just happening to be right when it came to how things would work out. My case was full of unexpected turns and situations that made this anything short of a straight-forward custody case, yet Ehren kept me informed and prepared all the way through. What I feel should not be sold short is Ehren's communication outside the courtroom. At the height of my case, Ehren would give me updates pretty much daily because of communication that he had with the other parties involved. He truly made me feel like I was his only client at the time and that he had devoted his whole life to working on my case. In the end, everything worked out for the best for me and I have to give a very large portion of that credit to Ehren Slagle!

Knowledge, integrity and teamwork

My case had some complex elements that required an attorney who would give careful attention to my input. I was glad to discover that Ehren not only allowed, but anticipated, many of my ideas concerning how to keep a focus on the facts. He was honest from the start about the potential for success in ...this type of libel suit. We didn't achieve the best outcome but it was the best possible in this set of circumstances. In retrospect, I might have fared better filing against a single party rather than several opponents who were able to apply tag team tactics. We had to contend with multiple attorneys and a frivolous countersuit. We might have avoided some of the chaos by narrowing the scope of my complaint. However, the final decisions were always mine. I was well-informed about all legal considerations, kept up to date, and had every question answered. The support team at the office offered outstanding and timely assistance. I chose an attorney with scrupulous integrity and don't regret that because it represented the very purpose of my defamation suit. Some of the opponents' tactics caught me by surprise and at times I felt we allowed them to control the process. But I didn’t want any sacrifice of principles and Ehren was without a doubt the right attorney to preserve that approach. I needed an attorney I could respect, and after spending many hours observing the opponents, the only attorney in the room at the end of the day that I felt had earned respect was mine. It was a stressful and difficult process and I doubt I would undertake this type of civil proceeding again. My takeaway from the experience is that it's critical to have an attorney that you not only trust, but can respect regardless of the outcome, win, lose or draw. If honor, dignity, and integrity are important to the client, they must matter greatly to the attorney as well, and I found that to be the case with Ehren Slagle.
