Do Yourself A Favor...

If you're looking for an attorney who sets clear expectations, communicates with professionalism, and responds promptly every single time—look no further than Rand. I can't recommend him highly enough. From day one, Rand has been a rock-solid advocate for me in a difficult and emotionally charged cu...stody and legal situation. His ability to cut through noise, prioritize key issues, and move swiftly has been unmatched. He doesn’t just check boxes—he takes ownership of the case and ensures you're heard and protected. What impressed me most is how Rand delivers results without overpromising. He always gives a realistic view of the situation, never sugarcoats anything, but still fights hard for what is right. His legal insight, attention to detail, and calm but firm demeanor in the face of manipulative tactics made me feel like I had someone truly in my corner. The work he’s done—especially regarding child custody, financial disclosure, tax fraud, and enforcing court orders—has been thorough and strategic. He listens. He cares. And he acts quickly. If you want someone who communicates clearly, handles complexity with ease, and actually gets things done, then Rand is the attorney you want. I trust him fully and would recommend him to anyone needing family law representation that doesn't play games. Use Rand. You’ll thank yourself later.

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!

Choose Kris Greenwood as your first attorney!

My divorce has been very difficult! I was very worried about my daughter and the negative impact the situation was having on her life. My previous attorney was nice but just wanted to do paperwork. Kris combines knowledge, hard work, integrity, over 20 experience and wisdom into absolute brilliance t...o fight for me and my daughter! He thoroughly explained how things work in divorce and custody cases and answered all my questions. Kris took the time to ask questions to understand the uniqueness of my situation. I felt heard. He was prepared and positive for all the meetings which included several court appearances and mediation. Kris is amazing, humble and absolutely nothing seems to surprise him. He focuses on the big picture while taking care of all the details. It is now possible to move forward with my life! I have sole legal and sole physical custody of my daughter and thank God she is getting her life back! Sherry

Do not move forward WITHOUT Kris on your side!!

I have one of the most complicated divorce, modification, child custody, and paternity cases in the state! Several attorneys turned down my case due to the complexity of the variables and individuals involved. I lost so many nights of sleep worried and concerned for the safety and welfare of my chi...ldren. Kris, took on my case with confidence and gave me the assurance he would walk each step with me and take the "burden" away to represent and "fight" for the rights of me and my two children. We had complicated issues with my ex and I was forced to involve law enforcement with several incidents during a debacle over children and custody. Kris was Always available to answer my call, even if I just needed some counsel on how to handle a situation involving many raw emotions and most importantly, the emotional well being of the innocent children involved in the matters discussed. His office staff is superb and will give answers and support throughout the entire process. I felt an enormous burden lifted, and strength from Kris' wisdom, knowledge and experience with all of the issues at hand. If you are in the middle of the "Battle for your life and for your future family," you cannot find a better, more ethical representative in Child custody/Divorce law than Kris Greenwood. There is not one family lawyer along the Wasatch who will represent you, give you honest and sincere feedback and remove a burden we all so desperately need down this legal battle front. Thank you Kris and Staff for the most exceptional service you provided to me and my family! My children owe you their lives and emotional integrity to have a safe and loving future!

Hands down best Lawyer out there!

Kris is absolutely wonderful! His professionalism, knowledge, and expertise is far above any other lawyer. He has showed me that by bringing victory to my case multiple times; dealing with two different lawyers since my divorce has started. He is not just a wonderful lawyer but a compassionate person... as well, as he truly cares about the well being of me and my children. He has counseled, advised and guided me through this whole process and has never been wrong. Kris knows what he is doing, and predicts the outcomes. Time and time again he has predicted what would happen in my case, and not only was correct on the outcome, but it was also in my favor. He works hard to provide my kids and I the best possible life during such a huge trial in our lives. I am beyond blessed to have Kris as my lawyer, I trust his judgement and decisions completely. Divorce is difficult enough with the uncertainty and stress, however, Kris has always calmed me down and given me peace through this storm. Hire Kris as your lawyer, he will not disappoint you! Kris's supporting staff is also wonderful, great customer service and patient. I can not praise Kris and his staff enough. I don't know what I would do if I did not hire him as my lawyer - the victories he has brought to my case will benefit my children and I for years to come!
