Hands-on, compassionate, and always there when it mattered!!!

Working with Amy Lass was one of the best decisions I made during what could have been an incredibly stressful time. From the very first consultation, she was professional, compassionate, and invested in my well-being and outcome. What sets Amy apart is that even as the owner and lead attorney, sh...e was personally involved in my case and always there when it mattered most. She took the time to truly understand my situation and explained every step in plain language. I never felt confused or left in the dark, and she always kept my long-term goals at the forefront. It says a lot about Amy that she stays so hands-on and accessible to her clients, and about the culture she has built that her whole team works the same way. Brooke, Mekyla, Sarah, and Beth all reflect the standard she sets. I walked away feeling heard, supported, and exceptionally well-represented. I would highly recommend Amy to anyone navigating a family law matter.

Professionalism at the highest level

I cannot say enough positive things about Lass Law and their exceptional team. Amy and her entire staff, especially Brooke, exemplify professionalism at the highest level. They are consistently punctual, detail-oriented, and highly responsive, which makes a meaningful difference in complex legal matt...ers. What truly sets Lass Law apart is their resolution-oriented approach and their ability to collaborate effectively, even in high-conflict cases. Amy demonstrates a balance of strategic thinking, calm leadership, and practical problem-solving. She keeps the focus on outcomes rather than escalation and ensures communication remains clear, purposeful, and centered on achieving the best possible result. Equally important, Lass Law operates with integrity. They do not take advantage of clients. While they are a higher-end firm, you truly get what you pay for: experience, efficiency, and honesty. Amy is direct and refreshingly candid. She sets realistic expectations, cuts through emotion, and provides grounded, straightforward guidance so clients can make informed decisions without false promises. If you are looking for a law firm that is professional, ethical, and results-driven, especially in high-conflict situations, Lass Law is outstanding.

divorce

no one wants to be in the difficult position of getting a divorce but Amy and her team made the process so much easier! after calling her office for help, she quickly went to work & got all of my paperwork filed with the courts extremely quickly. From start to finish, she made this complicated proces...s simple and as painless as possible. Amy is professional, efficient and empathetic. i would highly recommend her and her team to anyone in a similar position; in fact, i already told my friend to contact her team about his divorce. Life is hard enough as it is -- make it a little bit easier and less complicated by hiring and having Amy and her team on your side.

Amy Lass is an excellent divorce attorney!

Amy Lass is thorough, professional, and efficient. I hired her to handle my divorce. My ex-husband ended up firing his attorney and we just used Amy to finalize our divorce. She assisted us with finding solutions and ways to meet in the middle that left us both feeling we got what we deserved. Sh...e is an excellent listener and communicator. We finalized our divorce quickly and with the least amount of conflict possible in this situation. If it were not for Amy, I don't believe that would have been possible. I would recommend Amy Lass to any family member or friend.

Child support work

Amy and her team have been an amazing resource of help for us. She has been invaluable in the process of my divorce with two young children involved. We were able to come to very amicable solutions that both parties agreed on. This is exactly what you want when it comes to the kids not being in the... middle of an adult situation. We could not have asked for better legal advice and assistance.
