Anna C Friedhoff

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.

Anna was thorough with every issue and aspect of the process. She was one hundred percent Professional and protective of all sensitive issues. Not that I ever want to go through divorce again, but if I had to I would be back with Anna! She and her team worked with me and my needs and made adjustmen...ts I needed to get through the process. I had a very difficult divorce and Anna was with me every step of the way. She did an excellent job of educating me on the process and covering all possibilities. I one hundred percent recommend using her. Not all issues are cut and dry. Anna was excellent navigating the individual aspects of my divorce and personal addressing my needs . I appreciate the firm she works with and hold them with high regard. Anna and the firm she works with lives up to their reputation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I worked with Laurel Hook and Anna Friedhoff at Stahancyk Kent & Hook and was very impressed with their professionalism, insight and skill. Laurel is a partner at the firm and is as high caliber as they come. I was constantly amazed by her level of retention and focus. She’s a busy woman who has ...heard many stories over the years but was able to remember and engage small details from the earliest stages of my case. She also has keen insight into both the patterns she’s seen before as well as the uniqueness of my specific situation. This experience and poise was a critical difference maker in the kind of strategy and execution that lead to our success. Anna was the perfect complement and a great value as an associate. She was able to track, distill and articulate several complex details no matter how turbulent the process got. She also has an innate capacity for strategy that proved very useful when negotiating with opposing council. She is an exceptional attorney with substantial legal acuity. The organization itself was also an important part of the process. SK&H has the structure and resources I needed behind me and the difference was clear when working with the lawyer on the other side of the table. Divorce is an unpleasant process and my case had an extra layer of frustration because it involved addiction. Laurel and Anna were generous with their advice, forecasting and personal investment which truly made a difference in how I navigated this difficult experience.
