Terrible experience!

Absolutely terrible experience. Greta Fifner was completely one-sided and showed clear favoritism toward the mother in my case. For over a year, I repeatedly asked for her help in stopping my child's mother from cutting our court-ordered phone calls short—and she refused to take any meaningful action.... Instead of advocating for fairness, she created outlandish “rules” that even went as far as saying I couldn’t take my child on a simple bike ride. Completely unprofessional. After doing some research, I found I’m not the only father who’s had similar issues with her. If you are assigned Greta, do yourself a favor: keep everything in writing. She’s notorious for denying things said over the phone, so email is your only real record. In my experience, she seemed more interested in billing hours than actually helping the child or maintaining neutrality. Her priorities? Money, money, and more money. I would strongly advise anyone—especially fathers—to proceed with extreme caution.

Divorce

Greta was extremely professional and caring. Her attention to the specific details of my case allowed the divorce to be finalized in a timely manner! She stayed on top of & handled any deceitful tactics my ex tried to use to stall & derail the case. Greta kept this case moving forward until success ...was achieved. Thank you Greta!!

Greta Fifner is a Professional attorney

I hired Greta fifner to take care of my divorce. My ex-husband fought me for everything and she stood up and fought back. I would recommend her to anybody needing a kind, hard-working professional attorney.

Unprofessional

Greta is disorganized, does not go over paperwork thoroughly, does not even check her paperwork in court, does not ask questions to witnesses who have witnessed said issues, does not call other witnesses regarding the case, Does not make all children comfortable, does not treat family respectfully,... forgets details, does not seem to understand the minutia of domestic violence from a perpetrator, nor does she seem to care about how this violence effects the entire family. I was very shocked at her disregard of a parent not providing proper meds. to kids, and continually protecting the perpetrator and their negligence. I would never advise anyone to go to her. She is tired, sloppy and devoid of any bedside manner!
