Poor approach

Miss acklestad did not speak to me directly at any point of our relationship when she was court appointed. The only time she did was to argue with me via video conference during court. Onc her law office is in Texas and they poorly understand nevada law. Horrible attorney

A very capable, no BS but kind lawyer!!

Alyssa successfully handled my divorce case last year. As with many divorces, there was a high level of conflict between parties, some special circumstances, and a complete unwillingness to compromise and negotiate from the defendant which could have resulted in years on litigation without a skillfu...l attorney like Alyssa. She went head to head with one of Las Vegas's most prominent law firms and divorce attorneys and she successfully navigated and negotiated a very fair monetary settlement and a 50/50 custody agreement from an ongoing serious of egregious offer(s) from opposing counsel. On top of this, her cost was only 'one quarter' of the price that the defendant paid!!! Some of the things I like most about Alyssa was the fact that she ways always available, accessible and responded to text messages and emails in a timely manner. I appreciated her candor and and she was realistic in her approach and never set "pie in the sky" expectations. As a result, she underpromised and over delivered big time and I like doing business with people like that. Lastly, it wouldn't be fair if I didn't mention Dawni, her paralegal because she was terrific. She was kind, responsive and efficient. Alyssa and Dawni are an excellent team and I highly recommend them if you are unfortunately going thru a divorce. They will make the process the best experience it can be during a tough time. They are both down to earth, kind, good hearted ladies who treat you like a human being and have compassion for their clients while not running up excessive bills by charging for every email and text message. I really can't emphasis that enough because I saw the defendant's bill and unfortunately they were not nearly as fortunate. It's actually a shame and almost criminal the billing practices that some of these 'other' law firms and attorney's do, you WILL NOT have to worry about that with Alyssa. I hope this was helpful and wish you the best of luck.

Best possible outcome!

Alyssa helped me with my divorce and custody case. From the first meeting, she and her office team helped me feel comfortable with the entire process. Everything was clearly explained to me as well as what I should expect throughout. Alyssa was also very prompt and friendly in replying to my many num...erous emails. I'm pretty sure I was forgetting to breathe the day of my court date, but she reassured and calmed me and I was very grateful to have her on my side. I sincerely appreciate all she and her office did for not only my case, but my family and children. Highly recommend!
