words fall short to describe how good she is

Amy has been the most understanding and efficient lawyer I have ever met. She genuinely cares about the case unlike other lawyers who are just interested in their fees. She provided help from the minute I met her, kept communication open, replied diligently to my emails, answered all my questions but... most importantly helped me solve my case in a couple of days, after having dealt with it on my own for over 2 months, time during which I was constantly threatened and bullied by a certain agency. I hope I do not need her services ever again, but if I do I will certainly be calling Amy.

Highly Reccommended

Amy was professional and courteous at all points during our work together. She performed in an efficient manner while ensuring that all of my questions and concerns were addressed. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of legal services.

Great person

Amy was my first attorney. I hired her for my divorce. She was very understanding of my situation and kept me informed on a timely manner. Her paralegal was very caring and I loved working with them. Unfortunately she got kicked out of my case because of conflict of interest. I felt at loss. I got r...eferred to another attorney and I'm still looking for one like Amy.

I Trust Her

Having just wrapped up my divorce, I can now post this review. I trust this lawyer. I would recommend this lawyer. That says a lot right there. She kept me up to date. Kept my expenses as low as possible. Represented me well. Showed great knowledge. Helped me through a difficult time. Ensured I didn'...t get hurt by the other side.

Amy failed me

I contacted Geistweidt at the recommendation of a relative and she agreed to represent me in a collaborative divorce. No mention was made of a 'conflict check'. 2 days later Amy contacts me by text message and states there is a conflict, her firm cannot represent me. She refused to specify the confli...ct; she refused to offer any explanation at all. This all by text, she didn't offer the respect of a voice call. She has rejected any further contact, ignoring my texts and calls. I discover later that the conflict was a previous consultation with my wife, only a few days before mine. Our name is uncommon, easy to remember, anyone with normal memory skill would have been aware of the conflict the moment I introduced myself. Geistweidt treated me disrespectfully, I strongly discommend her.
