AMAZING!

I want to let you know that I am forever in your debt, I mean that. You have helped us get the time we deserve with one another. I really appreciate you Amy!! You have changed our lives in one of the most positive ways. We have time together! More time than we would have had it not been for the day ...I walked into your office two years ago. If our paths cross again, it will be my pleasure. I wish you nothing but happiness and again thank you so much! Thank you

Excellent Professional Family Attorney

Amy was very impressive from the initial consultation. I left her office knowing that I would end up hiring her. I felt very comfortable with her advice and experience in handling my type of case. The other party (my son's mother) was very difficult to deal with. Any father seeking rights in a patern...ity case would be foolish to not consider an expert like Amy. I sat down with two other family law offices and was uncomfortable, unimpressed and shocked at the careless attitude in what I would call the interview. Amy first understood what I needed and wanted after hearing my situation, then quickly went to work gathering information to give me options. I always felt like I had control in which direction we went but felt the support of a tenured pro to back me up and handle most of this headache. I count my case as a win since I have joint legal and physical with a fair amount of parenting time. Be prepared when you are facing a child custody or marital issues because men are already behind the 8 ball. The only way to get a fair outcome is hiring an attorney like Amy Dohrendorf. I wish Amy's service were not needed and a court of law was able to sort through the lies as to save me a bit of money. Sadly I now know first hand why people like Amy are employed and encourage you to contact Amy to see what she counsels and can personally do for you and your situation. - J.C. (A very happy client from the east valley)

Divorce

Amy is great! She was percise and clear. She crafted a clear plan and help me achieve a fair settlment and resolution of my divorce. I got the amount of custody I wanted, and support was fair and done to state guidelines.

Highly Recommended

I highly recommend the services of Ms. Dohrendorf as a competant, ethical and results driven attorney. From our initial meeting throughout the legal proceeding; Ms. Dohrendorf represented my best interests under the guidleines of the law and that of which we deemed fair and reasonable considerations.... Her knowledge of the law and judicial process allowed me, a novice in divorce activity, to make proper decisions for my family; as well as, how those decisions would impact my future. Going through a legal process of any type is extreamely stressful. As is the case of divorce; compounded by emotions which can cloud proper judgement. Selecting an experieced lawyer can make the difference on how those decision impact the rest of your life. My case is now closed; but in reflection, I know the decisions made were seldom simple, but always 100% correct. I have Ms. Dohrendorf to thank for these results.

Review of Amy Dohrendorf

I will be divorced 3 years this coming March and going through that difficult process isn't easy, but Amy made it as painless as it could be for me. I was pleased with my settlement and we were able to settle my case through mediation. I have recommended several friends to Amy and they have all bee...n pleased as well. I am still having to deal with some post-decree issues and I am always pleased with the options Amy gives me to try to settle these matters. If you are looking for a knowledgeable attorney that is responsive and is surrounded by a great support staff, contact Amy.
