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

Divorce lawyer didn't get me divorced and more

Alyssas paralegal was great. Alyssa on the other hand didn't do much AT ALL. She claimed i was divorced when I wasn't. My son was absconded and I had to go out of my way to get him back. She DID NOT do what she said she would. For starters she kept requesting money and no receipts or reasons why unti...l I paid. I spent well over 4 thousand and I didnt even get divorced.... She SPECIALIZES in divorce. She made promises she didn't keep. It was like playing phone tag the whole time. If you need a lawyer go get a free one at the court house. They aren't worth the time, effort, or money. You think 2020 was bad don't use them.

Devon I understand your frustration, however you indicated you didn't have money to continue to have me represent you so I had to withdraw prior to your divorce getting finalized. You were sent all of your invoices regularly and promptly. I never claimed you were divorced, we had filed it but it was delayed due to your case getting taken up to the Supreme Court by your ex's counsel. I apologize that we weren't able to finish your case, but some circumstances are out of our control. Alyssa

Best lawyer in Nevada!!!

Alyssa did a great job I was charged w 9 felonies and she got it down to 2 counts of misdemeanor and no jail time. She was honest, efficient and most importantly affordable!! She with the business!!

Divorce Attorney

Alyssa and her para-legal, Dawni, were both extremely helpful and knowledgeable in assisting me with all my divorce questions. They were able to assist me with filing a claim and getting it resolved quickly.

Couldnt have done it without her

Alyssa took all the stress off my plate. I literally would of gone crazy if it wasn't for her counsel, advice and professionalism. She had a difficult task going up against a liar, manipulator and someone who doesn't follow the rules. Her knowledge helped combat the lies legally and knew what to file... and when to stay in front of his attempts at being sneaky. I had an emergency one time, and she had our papers drawn up within a day to get in front of an issue that arose. I'm so thankful I chose her as my counsel. Give her a try and you'll see why I love her!!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
