Posted by Karen | September 27, 2020 | Hired Attorney

Best lawyer and down to earth person. I highly recommend him to anyone

I hired Dustin for some financial business he was always on top of things. Paperwork was always in order. His office staff was very courteous and very helpful. I didn't have to wait he was right on top of everything and the procedure went smooth and fast. He basically took care of everything. It was ...great having the stress lifted off of me. I would recommend him to anyone.

Posted by anonymous | January 21, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Quick and efficient divorce

When my husband of 30 years told me he wanted a divorce and planned to leave the state in 2 weeks, Mr. Essig was able to advise and guide me through one of the worst events in my life. Mr. Essig's kindness and compassion made me feel empowered and I was able to concentrate on beginning a new life wh...ile he managed the legal details. He charged a very reasonable fee and he and his assistant helped me every step of the way. I honestly don't know how I would have managed without the Essig Law Firm. I have recommended Mr. Essig to several friends in similar circumstances.

Posted by anonymous | March 02, 2016 | Child Support

Bad experience!

I hired Mr. Essig to handle a child support issue, but I should be clear that he has his support staff do most of the work. I only met with Dustin twice and each time he was not helpful & would talk in circles with no real resolution taking place. If you are looking for a lawyer who cares about his ...clients you have the wrong guy. I left his office with no clear path moving forward and none of my questions answered. His support staff is nice, but has absolutely no idea what they are doing & actually ended up costing me $100s maybe in $1000s in my child support case by miscalculating the child support & also filing my petition over 2 weeks after I signed it. I actually ended up negotiating child support on my own. This whole ordeal was a nightmare.
