Life often presents us with unplanned twists, turns and ill-fated consequence.

Unfortunately, some time ago, I found myself in a legal predicament that I had no idea whatsoever on how to proceed – FORTUNATELY, I was apparently guided by some power stronger than myself to Kristopher K. Greenwood – practicing Attorney of Utah State Law whose knowledge, skill and abilities greatly... helped me navigate the tortuous paths of both Civil and Criminal Law. No one openly welcomes being served with unanticipated legal documents demanding an often short-time legally obligated response – A not usual first response of a recipient from a demand for legal action is uncontrolled emotional outrage – When represented by Attorney Greenwood, you as his client can be confident he will actively pursue the most appropriate logical legal strategic response to assure that your legal rights are preserved during the course of his representation. If you are fortunate enough to have the representation of Attorney Kristopher K. Greenwood, you can be confident that you are being represented by a highly skilled legal practitioner who will utilize his broad, diverse and insightful knowledge to educate, represent and advocate for you his client. Attorney Kristopher K. Greenwood greatly assisted me with multiple legal actions by helping me better understand the various legal cases, my legal rights and obligations under Utah State Law, and the consequences of our collective legal action decisions for the various matters under consideration. In the past, I never thought I would need the assistance of an attorney to help me with legal matters – However, as many of us know, and I certainly discovered – Life often presents us with unplanned twists, turns and ill-fated consequence. If you too find yourself in need of legal representation during an unfortunate turn of circumstance, it may bring you peace-of-mind to know that if you are represented by Attorney Kristopher K. Greenwood, you will have a strong legal counselor who will act on your behalf to the best of his abilities to assure the most favorable legal practical outcome possible – He certainly did for me.

Review

I have known Kris Greenwood for over 10 years; he’s an excellent attorney and owns/manages an excellent firm. He’s been a trusted advisor for the past several years to me and my family and I would highly recommend him and his Firm.

Kris is masterful with people, not just the law...

I am supremely impressed with Kris Greenwood. Kris understands the law and is very thorough and professional in his practice, with a staff to match, as one would expect. But his real magic is on the “human side”. Kris totally understood where I was coming from and what I was trying to accomplish... in my divorce, and worked expertly and efficiently to get me there. He educated me in each area as it came up, in a succinct and efficient manner. We did a lot of “finessing” in my divorce case… I wanted to be sure I understood what the law would allow while at the same time trying to get there through persuasion rather than legal force. I wanted to optimize between legal results and preserving as much good will as possible with my spouse, and sanity for our kids. Kris was totally on board with this; he understood that he was helping me reengineer my family and that the stakes were huge with kids involved. Kris was certainly able and willing to be aggressive, but backed off when I asked him to after he made sure I understood all implications of my proposed decision. Kris had me negotiating from a position of competence and strength. I felt like I knew what I was doing and in control. We ended up crafting a great agreement without going to court… but If our negotiations didn’t go so well and I needed to go to court, Kris would definitely be the guy I would want to handle that too. I could not be happier with this result! I am especially grateful to be through this trying time with little to no negative impact on our children. I cannot imagine that many lawyers could have made this happen for me in the same way. Thank you Kris and staff, you guys did a great thing!

Great family law attorney

Kristopher Greenwood is a very outstanding family law attorney. I was impressed with is passion, understanding, and experience in helping in my case. He was consistently assertive in representing personal needs and was appropriately aggressive when necessary. He was timely, courteous, and very respec...tful. His staff was very professional, pleasant, and helpful. I recommend Kris to all who need help with any family law matters.
