Michelle Achterberg’s reviews

If you look above here, on the About Michelle section it says this: “Approachable and down-to-earth Eau Claire law firm”. Truer words are not spoken. Michelle is a blend of caring, kind, insightful human coupled with dogged professionalism. I work with attorneys of all types in my day to day job. In comparison, Michelle’s command of the law, the practical application of it and of the necessary relationships needed to yield a positive outcome is exemplary. That said, where Michelle really shines is in strategy, dare I say, YOUR strategy. She will work with you every step of the way, and she is clear in what each step is, and how to approach it. Michelle works hand in hand with her highly capable and equally professional para-legal Malori. They are so closely paired they would often surprise me at how much they were in sync – as a single mind. This unique partnership is an added note of expertise that is hard to beat.

I can say without hesitation that Michelle will always have your best interests at heart, she won’t take the case unless she can make that commitment. Her philosophy of taking on a limited client count at any time yields these personal results, and her disarming humor belies her stone cold advocacy for your case. Michelle is an absolute bulldog. I consider her one of the finest attorney’s I have ever worked with, and her representation of me was flawless. Eau Claire is fortunate to have such a high caliber individual make this her community. I can say without reservation, use her services.

Michelle is a great lawyer and so easy to work with. Highly recommend her.

If you are getting a divorce hire her immediately! Run to her office!
I went through a messy year long divorce where I stood to lose everything. Michelle was with me every step of the way. She kept me well informed, never backed down to my exe's lawyer, fought for me in court and when my ex didn't follow our divorce decree, she didn't hesitate to drag him back to court.
Her rates were very fair and she was willing to work with me financially. Michelle has had my best interests in mind at every turn and never slowed down or backed away. She is who you want representing you. I have nothing but praise and gratitude for her passion and dedication.
Her legal assistant Malori is on top of everything and easy to talk too as well. Her office is easy to find and conveniently located to everything with covered parking. ( In case you want to be incognito. )
What are you waiting for? Run! NOW!

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 process a lot easier to deal with.

Michelle did not miss a single note when dealing with my situation. This kind woman helped me get more time with my children and enforced accountability with my ex wife.
Michelle was very caring and attentive to my specific wants and needs. She simply made things happen!! My current wife and I are overly great full for the success that came Out of everything. I get more time with my children!!! and in the near future and continuing on a healthy co-parenting plan with their mother.
If you need help and/or what to get powerful results, I would STRONGLY you consult with Michelle and retain her because she has your back and knows what she is doing!!
Her assistant Malori was right there with her every step of the way as well and I can’t say enough about the both of them!!! Thank you ladies for giving me the road to positively impacting my children’s life and being a good father.

I had never been to a lawyer before, so this was a new experience with a lot of new lingo. Michele was very Friendly, open, honest and has a sense of humor, which made me feel at ease. She's very professional, but uses terms I understood. Or if I gave her a funny look, she would explain things to me. She would answer all of my questions and never made me feel like I was a bother. If I ever need another lawyer, I will be calling Michelle. I would also like to thank Malori who answered some of my questions when Michelle was in court.
I highly recommend these ladies!
Thank you!

Michelle represented me in a divorce case. I surely enjoyed working with Michelle and her paralegal Malori. This particular case went to trial, which resulted in a positive outcome. Michelle was highly prepared and professional! I loved her sense of humor at times when it was needed! She cares about her clients and it shows through her expertise. I would recommend attorney Michelle to anyone in need of representation.

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 issues 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, and 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.
