My Attorney

Posted by

Mr. Olsen is a great lawyer. He worked on my divorce quickly and efficiently. He was very quick to respond to any questions or emails I had for him. His office staff is very kind and knowledgeable when it comes to legal questions as well in case Jared was unable to answer. He is a very caring person and I felt like I wasn't just another client to him, that I actually meant something as well as my case. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Very Competent Professional

Posted by

My divorce situation was rather complicated, with husband, wife and children living in different countries. We had a very long initial conversation and by the time we met, Jared had an excellent battle plan. I was surprised because I came to see on a Monday morning and by Monday afternoon he filed the divorce petition. Two and half momths later I got the divorce decree. WY is a great jurisdiction for getting a divorce and I was fortunate to find a lawyer that can be flexible in his approach and deliver good results.

I would use Jared's services again in the future.

I hired Jared to facilitate a divorce for me. Although it took longer than we anticipated it ended well for both parties. He was very knowledgeable about how to make the divorce fair for both parties. He helped to protect my businesses and all in all I would recommend his services for anyone looking for a good lawyer.

I recently conducted a mediation for Mr. Olsen. He was prepared, knew his case and represented his client with class. Jared enjoyed a good relationship with his client and under the circumstances of the case, did an excellent job. Jared, you are to be commended.

Dale Cottam, Business Attorney on Mar 21, 2016

I have known Jared for several years. During much of that time, we worked alongside each other on business transactions and commercial litigation. Jared has a keen understanding and deep knowledge of the law. He quickly sorts out thorny issues and gets right to the heart of the matter. I always look forward to working with Jared due to his skill, professional manner, and diplomatic style.

I found Mr. Olsen to be a zealous advocate for his client. I did find that despite the fact that our clients in the marriage dissolution matter were escalating the situation, we were able to work to a mediated resolution in a reasonable time frame.
