This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Incompetent and lacks basic communication skills

Seek council elsewhere. Doesn't respond to emails, is lacking in general knowledge, doesn't pay enough attention to your case to actually have the knowledge to fight for you, cares more about providing professional courtesies to other attorneys than fighting for you. Lacked the basic knowledge an...d foresight to see the repercussions that child support, parenting time, and alimony have on income and taxes and how that affects refinancing the family home. There was a pressing matter involving a parenting dispute. I called the office and emailed Chamber. She never responded. Months later I had another question. Emailed her and again, no response. I called the office looking for her and was treated like I wasn't even a client. Do yourself a favor and find someone competent.

Doesn't even know clients name

Basic communication is nonexistent, consistently forgets to respond to matters and refers to her clients in emails by the incorrect name. Save your time and money. In my opinion you are better off finding a competent attorney.

¡Divorced!

I hired Chamber for my divorce, everything was very timely and professional. She told me exactly what to expect and was completely right on the money. Have also had her look at a contract for me and she broke it down for me and let me know it needed a couple of tweaks and then good to go. Ove...r all a great experience and will hire again for other needs in the future

Don’t expect even basic communication

Despite a $3500 retainer, days and weeks go by before responses to my questions are answered. Not very professional.

Chikld Custody Court Case

Anne and I hired Chamber A Dorheim to assist in in seeking custody of our two young grandchildren from the birth mother. Chamber was excellent. From the outset, she provided a realistic vision of what obstacles needed to be overcome. She provided a clear path of what we needed to do and know. The...re were serious setbacks along the path. The entire proceeding took 18 months. Chamber always knew what to do next. In court, she handled herself extremely poised and professional. We did win sole custody and our grandchilden are doing well.
