Great Attorney

Greg and his staff are very knowledgeable of the law and the court system. Very easy to work with and his staff goes above and beyond to ensure that you are ready for court. I went in with the expectation of leaving with an empty bank account and the clothes on my back but thanks to Greg and Mariah I... still have my house and something in my bank account. I would definitely recommend Greg Riebesehl and his staff.

Great family attorney

Greg did an outstanding job on my case and has been my family attorney for the last ten years. I would highly recommend giving him a call. Free consultation and very reasonable pricing.

Do not hire him

I hired Gregory ribesehl in 2010 to handle my family court matter. I fired him after a week. In 2012 I learned that Mr. riebeshl. good friend and business partner was reparsenting my x. I would not recommend Steven E sufrin or Gregory riebesehl. They are the most unethical. attorneys I ever seen.

Posted by Sean | May 25, 2015 | Child Custody

Excellent

My ex-wife was trying to take our two children to Thailand and collect an outrageous amount of child support / alimony. I originally hired a high priced attorney in Scottsdale thinking this was the way to go but with this attorney I was given supervised visitation, a child support / alimony payment I... could not afford, had to take many unnecessary classes and the possibility of losing my children. On top of all of this a large attorney bill. Mr. Riebesehl did a complete 180 turn around with my case where I received everything I was asking the court for in my divorce. I now have shared custody, shared legal decision making, an affordable child support payment and my children can never go out of the country. I highly recommend this attorney for any case no matter how complicated. An A+ service in my book.

Very Pleased

Great Listener and well known. He is laid back and got me every thing I asked for in my Custody, Parenting Time, and Child Support Case. He turned a nightmare into a smooth sail. Worth every penny.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2007.

Probation issued in AZ, 2007

updated on 01/28/2019

Probation means an attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The State monitors the lawyer's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Gregory’s comment:

“My client's needs are paramount. The State Bar disagreed with how aggressively I represented my client. My client was happy with me. The other party, not so much. Live and learn.”
