Extremely good and knowledgeable!

My experience in my divorce was overwhelming at the start. Mr. Skupin walked me through every step of the way, and made the whole process easy and stress free. He kept my best interests in mind when dealing with my case. I felt that I was just not another client, but an actual person that he ...cared to help. I would advise anybody looking for a highly detailed, friendly, knowledgeable and aggressive Lawyer to seek him out. He is worth it!

Life Saving..

I can honestly say that after 17 years of marriage, two teenage children, and extreme highs and lows financially, that being served with legal separation papers that I believed that my life was over. I went through severe depression and truly was in the darkest place I have ever been in my life. I th...en began speaking with Mike and soon after felt safe and secure as I could finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. The difference between Mike and past attorneys was that he genuinely cared about my well being as well as my children's best interest. I was scared to death as we walked in to court for the first time as my ex wife turned in to a different person I had never seen. She came after me with false allegations trying to destroy me and my career seeking full custody and spousal maintenance beyond what was fair and just. We walked out of court after tears and anger as I personalized things and came out with a favorable agreement beyond what I thought was possible. Mike Skupin is not only the best attorney I have ever worked with but is now someone that I consider to be my dearest friend. I have worked with attornies during the last 20 years of business and in all disciplines. Mike stands above all of them and took a toxic situation and nursed me back to health all while keeping my kids and my interests first. I recommend Mike to anyone facing the adversity of a divorce.

Michel Skupin should be your first call when you need a Family Law attorney

When your need to hire a family law attorney ever arises, Mr Skupin needs to be your first consideration. He is very professional, attentive, and his fees are affordable. With that being said the intangibles with Mr Skupin's firm are what makes him a brilliant lawyer. Those are client dedication, ...good listener, quick follow-up, preparedness, only to name a few positive qualities. When I was in court the first time I was incredibly nervous but Mr Skupin made me feel confident as he began to proceed presenting my case to the judge. He was impressive. I would also like to give kudos to his amazingly efficient office and admin support team. They were always communicating with me on every detail of my divorce case.

Don't look any further....You've found the right attorney!

I retained Skupin Law Group recently for a very complex child custody and child support matter. My case went to trial and Mr. Skupin obtained a very favorable outcome for me and my child. Mr. Skupin is an excellent trial attorney and from the very beginning made himself available to answer my quest...ions and calm my anxiety. He never made unrealistic promises and fought hard to protect my rights. Mr. Skupin and his staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and professional people who made me feel like I was their only client. I was so impressed with all of their legal knowledge, preparation and expertise. I have worked with other attorneys in the domestic relations field and Mr. Skupin and his staff are truly exceptional. While other attorneys limit their access to you once they have received your retainer, I never had a single problem contacting Mr. Skupin and his staff. As I am a single parent who is far from wealthy, Mr. Skupin’s expenses for a full-fledged trial were very fair, reasonable, and affordable. Mr. Skupin and his entire staff are also up to date with the latest technology and I couldn’t recommend them more highly. They truly care. This is a real feedback from a real client.
