Stephanie D Rikeman

Limited to 4000 characters? Stephanie knows this is going to be difficult. Ms. Rikeman came into my case late as I was taking care of this myself. Was doing OK but when a couple of other items came up that I knew were going to require something beyond my capacity - I sought out legal counsel and w...as fortunate to find Stephanie and have her accept my case. Stephanie is very knowledgable and will pursue your case tenaciously. She has integrity and is absolutely honest - something I thought you only used as a punchline when speaking about an attorney. I was pleasantly surprised to have my faith restored in the legal system and all of that can be attributed to Ms. Rikeman. If you are hiring Stephanie you should be much the same. She will work within the framework of the law. Not that she won't look down every avenue in winning your case but if you are looking for someone that is a little shady ... then there are plenty of those out there. Stephanie will win your case doing what is right and just. Stephanie is diligent in her work. Don't be surprised to get an email from her at 9:00PM ... on a Saturday. She is a work-a-holic. Sometimes that isn't always a good thing, but considering she is working for you - then it is very good. It is a work ethic you don't often see anymore. It needed to be done so she gets it done. Sometimes that is from 9-5, sometimes that isn't enough. Unlike other attornies that will shrug that off and come in the office the next day or the next week or whenever - don't be surprised when you get that late email. Very early on Ms. Rikeman made a suggestion for my case that I really questioned. I didn't see that there was much benefit to it and there was an additional cost associated with it as well and I was already short on funds with everything else going on. Even after speaking with the person that she suggested I was still hesitant that it would help my case and there was even the chance that it would hurt my case. In the end I put trust into Stephanie and went with her suggestion - outside of retaining her it was the best decision I made. In retrospect let me simply say this; you are hiring Ms. Rikeman for her knowledge and expertise, take it! She isn't making a suggestion to make someone else money and it damn sure isn't going into her pocketbook. She is suggesting you do something to make your case have a better chance at success. OF course she can't guarantee it always goes as well as mine, but if she didn't think it was a good idea with a higher probility of success then she isn't going to mention it to you. Now then as far as money and all of that - again I find Ms. Rikeman to be very fair and honest. Her business practice itself is set up well and is absolutely fair in the manner that she has it. I would reccomend though that you hire Stephanie immediately - she is severly underpaying herself. At some point in time she will come to realize what I did quite awhile ago - that she is an awesome attorney and a lot better than the majority of the competition - yet the competition charges significantly more than she does. I know the explanation she gives and this isn't one of those, "Well for the money she is damn good". The fact of the matter is that she is better than damn good - getting her service for what she charges is the bonus. Well 254 characters left - I easily have enough to go on for another 4000 characters - Stephanie will know this is true.If you are still looking for an attorney and you have gotten to this point then I have to ask, "What the hell are you waiting on?" Call her now and get this going, make the best decision you are going to make in a long time and be confident in the decision you made. Thanks Stephanie - you are awesome!

I interviewed nine attorneys before finding Rikeman Law. Not only did she come highly recommended but she spent a lot of time with me at our consult and all along the way! I really felt like I was included in understanding the laws that affected our family's case and she was always more than thorou...gh in making sure I understood them and my options! I know divorces are rough on people but I can honestly say, I stopped losing sleep over ours just a few days after hiring Stephanie to handle mine! It was obvious very early on, that she had a ready understanding and quick recall of the facts in our case, was crazy organized and not much got past her! I felt safe with her on my team and certainly wouldn't want to be on the other side of the courtroom! Having seen what's out there Stephanie is a truly rare entity in Attorney Land! I would recommend Rikeman Law to anyone!

Most people do not want a divorce, I am one of those people. Unfortunately, it happens. Divorce is very tough on people and it was very hard to be task oriented during the divorce process. Stephanie kept me focused on what needed to be done and gently put me on the right path when I would wander. I ...would highly recommend Stephanie for anyone going through the ugly process of divorce. She is professional, knowledgeable, understanding, responsive, and completely trustworthy.
