Michelle F. Achterberg

I did extensive research before I purchase products or services and all of the previous reviews about this attorney are 100% correct. I had probably one of the most complicated child custody cases a court can see and with her due diligence, wit and humor Michelle and her assistant Malori made the pr...ocess a lot easier to deal with.

This was a very difficult time in my life Michelle and Malori were supportive prompt and caring. Gentle guidance, compassion and education of the divorce process is what helped me make informed decisions and know my rights as a client. Michelle was full of knowledge and quick to respond to any is...sues that arose. I was always informed and given options to every situation that came up. I felt confident and prepared the day of my divorce and was glad to have Michelle there to support me. I would highly recommend Michelle and Malori to anyone facing a divorce. Thank you!

Divorce isn't much fun and actually pretty scary. At least for me it was. Michelle and her assistant Malori took care of me from very start. All questions where immediately answered, I was never left in the dark wondering what was going to happen next. She is very eager to help, very knowledgeable, a...nd was always a step ahead which made the process that much easier on me. I definitely recommend Michelle Achterberg, and will return if I ever have a need for a good lawyer in the future.

Well to say my divorce was challenging would be an understatement! I had a lot of medical issues during my divorce and it took a lot of patience to work with me. The thing that stands out to me most about Michelle is her knowledge of the cases. I felt like I was the only case she had. I had been... divorced before and had terrible experiences with my lawyer mixing up my case with others and being unprepared at hearings. Michelle studies her cases well, I never felt like I was on the back burner. She is wonderful to work with and I apprecieated her presence in the room vs. feeling like I was a distraction. There was always continuity with her team and great communication on how the case was progressing. I definitely think her fees were reasonable compared to the amount of time and energy she put into my case. She was so easy to work with I almost forgot she was a lawyer... One of a kind!

I hired Michelle for a employment law matter in winter of last year, and found her to be a fantastic attorney who was kind and professional. She brought my case to a successful resolution within eight months, which was quicker than I would've imagined. Additionally, she really knew what she was tal...king about, well versed in this very specific and esoteric area of employment law. I enjoyed our conversations, and the settlement was very fair. I would hire her again for any legal need I might have in the future.
