Amanda Anne Bloomgren

Throughout a brutal divorce battle, I almost walked away in defeat several times. It seemed like an impossible Catch-22. But Amanda had my back, and she wouldn’t give up. Her amazing skills and strong sense of justice prevailed, and we were able to get a fair settlement. By the time I was ready t...o hire a lawyer, my trust level was zero. My volatile emotional state was off the charts, and my life was in free-fall. I knew I had a right to claim my share of the property, but I was too exhausted to fight or negotiate any more. I’m forever grateful that I found Amanda. She seems to have a laser-tuned ability to cut to the chase, seeing through manipulations and refusing to get distracted by red herrings. Her legal advice and assistance has been literally life-saving. I don’t know how she does it, but I’ve felt more compassion and support in our very short, business-like correspondences than I’ve felt from many friends. Amanda responds like a real person, respecting me as a real person. With just a few words of understanding, she’ll let me know that she “gets it,” and then move into practical problem-solving action. If you’re looking for a lawyer who cares (for real!) I highly recommend Amanda Bloomgren.

I had been divorced for about 10 years with two kids & had joint custody of them. I've since remarried, and then my wonderful wife & I were expecting our first child together. Around that time my Ex-wife tried again for the 3rd time for custody changes and lost again, so a new Parenting Consultant ...Janeen was appointed to our case. Suddenly my world was turned around when I lost over 85% of my time with my two current children based on the new PC's decision, even despite an extremely thorough Custody Evaluation being completed weeks before clearly recommending that changes should not be made to our 50/50 custody...and that it would cause more harm if changes were made. My close personal friend (who's also any attorney) new my situation was very complex and had highly recommended Amanda. Before meeting with Amanda, I thought it was a better choice that I consult with more expensive attorneys ($450-$750/hr) and those with at least 20 - 30 years of experience. The two other attorneys I consulted with were very stunned & nearly speechless after reviewing all of the Court Orders and then the 8 or 9 PC Decisions made over a period of maybe 12 months. Yet they did not felt that I had a strong case to overturn the Judge's or the new PC's Decisions and to have the PC vacated, as this was a very difficult & rare task to accomplish. I then decided to meet with Amanda. After she reviewed my case, she didn't make any guarantees, but said that she felt we had a strong argument based on the, "facts of the law". That gave me enough confidence to proceed. After filing our first motion, Amanda was able have the Judge allow our case to be reviewed again. Several months later we had our hearing. We ended up winning our case and the PC was VACATED! The PC Janeen had also been found to be in violations by the ADR Ethics Board. But the fact that it was all about having my two other children back made it one of the biggest successful events of my life. Amanda was so detailed, thorough, and very understanding of my entire case. She was also able to help me communicate more effectively with my Ex-wife so that it was more productive as opposed to me only being angry from her constantly being overbearing and trying to control things while I had time with our children. I can't say enough how grateful I am I have Amanda by my side. She is and always will be my family law attorney until my kids turn of legal age. I highly recommend her and would vouch for her should anyone need a reference...

I would recommend Amanda for anyone going through a divorce she walked me through the process step by step answered all my questions in a very timely manner was very flexible in meeting place and times that fit my schedule. She fought for me and was with me during the entire mediation process and fol...low up was wonderful a year after my divorce was final she continues to follow up and tie up loose ends. Amanda was wonderful was very understanding of my feeling during the process she was recommended by a friend and I have since recommended her and will do so in the future.

How does 50/50 custody sound. That's what Amanda got me and my children. I was victim of false reports of abuse that stuck in court. She overcame the claims. I got everything I asked form to school to child support. She has so much knowledge of the laws and changes and excesses every case and plans w...ith you. I could go on and on about how great my experience was and will continue to use Amanda if needed for my case.
