Worse off after hiring for divorce

Left me in a mess after my divorce. Charged me over 10k and I’m still fighting my ex for contempt. I still owe Trampe 3.5k (after the 11k) and he put a lawsuit on me when I told him to get it from my ex husband who has now owed me 50k for two years. I was told that we would have no problem getting th...e money owed from my ex because we could just take him back to court for contempt and my ex would have to pay lawyer fees. I gave my ex my house (that was only in my my name), which he let go into foreclosure, my land and agreed for 50k which I have never seen. I have also never seen anything from Trampe since the divorce to help with this distress, other than another lawsuit added to my debt.

10/10

Philip Trampe and his team were absolutely amazing! From start to finish, they were so helpful and informative, I knew I was in good hands. He was professional and knowledgeable and made sure I knew what was going on every step of the way. It made the court process a lot less stressful!

Highly Recommend!

I had hired Phillip Trampe to help me in a case where it involved child support and a small claim. I was super nervous about it since My ex-husband seemed to constantly make me feel inferior and that I would lose every time. Things always seemed to work out in his favor mainly due to previous represe...ntation I have had. I was never accurately represented. In fact, I had to basically represent myself. Phillip Trampe changed this experience for me. My anxiety was gone. I felt very at ease and protected. He was there to advocate strongly for me with his feet planted firmly on the needs of my children. That being said the outcome was better than I had imagined based on experiences of the past. He was focused, dedicated, professional, compassionate and fair. I felt we were always one step ahead and for once in my life, I was not taken advantage of by my ex-husband. For once, I was truly represented. My concerns were always answered. He is by far the best I have seen or heard of. I highly recommend Phillip Trampe. He will represent you with the highest level of competence, professionalism and compassion.

Trusted Advisor

Promptly understood my case, circumstance, request, and most importantly understood the law to advocate for my family's best interest and well being. Respectfully worked well with court commissioner, representatives and from a position of strong knowledge and experience, reasonably negotiated with op...posing counsel. Promptly answered questions throughout the duration of the case. Acted with integrity. Courtrooms and preparations prior to/after hearings can be stressful and potentially intimidating. With Phil's representation, there was confidence that the matter would be settled professionally and correctly - regardless of any stressful "unknowns" that naturally manifest during the course of a case - especially in a courthouse setting.

Post Judgement Changes to MSA

Phil was an incredible attorney! Kind and knowledgeable which is expected but he went above and beyond to make sure I knew the details of my case for the entire six weeks we were involved in negotiations with the other party. I live out of state and I was always kept in the loop with emails and... phone calls. When I had a concern about something or if I just wasn't comfortable with the way something was written...he didn't rush me off of the phone or try to convince me of anything. He listened....told me if something I was questioning was feasible and adjusted our approach accordingly It's important to be able to fully trust an attorney that you choose to represent you and your family. Never once did I feel like I wasn't protected or safe, Which to me is priceless. In total, I've had 2 attorneys before him for the same case and I won't been needing another after him. Phil will be on my case and my first pick every time I need representation. Strong work!
