This Lawyer will Lie For You

She's great if you want your spouse's attorney to be ignored. She lies during the proceeding and she a family killer. If that is what you are looking for then go for it.

Harlan is not a client nor has he ever been one. He is the former spouse of a long-time client, and he is obviously disappointed in the judge's ruling. Harlan's ex-spouse feels well taken care of.

Friendly & Fierce

There was no part of me that ever wanted to meet Jody or Anna. None! As a 20 year marriage was ending I started asking around for names of attorneys. I didn't have a clue where to start. But, there was one firm that came up several times from people I trusted - Stahancyk, Kent and Hook. I cons...ulted with several firms before SKH and saved them for last. The old adage, save the best for last? Ask Jody or Anna their theory on how you capture a monkey. Hilarious and and so wise. It was at that story, I said... Yes, they are the total for me. They KNOW the law. But, more important that that - THEY UNDERSTAND PEOPLE! By the grace of God I didn't need near as much representation as I thought I would. It was peaceful. From the very beginning Anna Friedhoff spoke candidly and truthfully with me. There were several times she needed to remind that I hired her because she is the professional. I am a strong woman and wanted to run the show. Oopsy! She gently but firmly guided me through it. When it became apparent the divorce was going to be amicable she saved me tens of thousand of dollars in fees. I bullet pointed out what I need/wanted. She drafted, we went back and forth with a few revisions. I even received a refund on my retainer fee!!! I hesitate to mention the swiftness of my divorce as I am fully aware it is not a normal pace. I met Anna Friedhoff on a Wednesday, she had the petition filed by that Friday, September 10th and Clackamas county judge signed our divorce decree October 19th. Yes, I was divorced in 6 weeks. You are in good and caring hands with this firm.

BEST ATTORNEY ON EARTH!!!!

I’m giving Anna Friedhoff 5 stars as a divorce attorney, only because I can’t give 6 stars. Anna is the best attorney in Oregon, and if you’re in the unfortunate position of divorce, she needs to be your first and only call. Anna is an absolute MONSTER of an attorney. She is brilliant, passion...ate, aggressive, and an all around badass. If anything else, simply hire her to ensure she’s never looking at you from the other side of the courtroom. I promise you, the last name you want to see on the opposing counsel team is Anna Friedhoff. While we dealt with Covid, and unexpected delays, Anna never took her eyes off the prize. She fought for me and she won every single motion we entered into. Hiring Anna Friedhoff as my divorce attorney was the best decision I’ve ever made in my life. If you are reading this review PLEASE do yourself a favor, stop immediately, pick up the phone and call her. Anna Friedhoff = WIN

Anna Review

I highly recommend Anna Friedhoff as a family lawyer. Anna was recommended to me by another lawyer and I’m very thankful I was. Divorce is never an easy or desirable thing, but she guided me through the process very well. She listened to my wants and needs and worked hard at getting them. Because she... was a consummate professional and truly listened to my story she was able to help me get what, not only I needed, but what was best for my children. I know Anna was very busy with other cases, but she was always very quick to reply to emails, phone calls, texts, etc, and treated me like I was her only client. I truly appreciate Anna and her hard work and without hesitation recommend her.
