Awesome attorney and caring individual

Michele Ahrens is an extremely knowledgable attorney who made the legal world easier for me to understand, always listened intently to my questions, offered her expert advice and kept me up to date on what was happening with my case. She was always easy to reach and was prompt in getting back to me... and communicating with me. Michele helped me through my divorce and when a mistake was made, due to no fault of Michele's, after my divorce was final, Michele was able to make the correction to everyone's satisfaction. I also feel Michele was a very caring and dedicated person to me and I would not hesitate hiring her for any future legal issues I may have.

The best attorney ever!

Michelle was recommended by a coworker of hers when my divorce got complicated. She is a first rate negotiator, a no-nonsense lawyer with a heart. She talked me down when I was upset, she explained anything I had questions about, and helped give me the courage and strength to face what I had to dea...l with. Luckily, we did not have to go to trial, as she expertly defended myself and my assets during Mediation. Even if we had gone to trial, she and her fabulous paralegal Janis, were SO prepared, that I had all faith and trust in what the outcome would have been. Thank you, Michelle.

Great Divorce lawyer

Michelle was my lawyer when I got divorced last year. My divorce was not easy as my ex was difficult and we were dealing with other criminal issues he created while we were separated. Michelle helped me to manage all of the various moving parts of the divorce as it related to his criminal charges; en...suring that the parenting plan was written so that it ensured our child was safe. Michelle was also realistic with me and talked me as to what to expect in regards to custody. I appreciated her honesty and her candidness. She was great at keeping me informed on what to expect during the divorce so there were no surprises. She even helped to ensure I was safe while we were at the courthouse during a meeting with me ex who turned our hearing into a confrontation. I really do appreciate all that Michelle did for me and will for sure retain her again if and when I need a family lawyer.

Family lawyer | Apr 28

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Michelle and I had a case together wherein I represented the fellow in criminal court, and she represented him in family court. She was a fearless advocate, We had an uphill battle, due to the allegations leveled against our mutual client, but Michelle was able to obtain great visitation, essentially joint custody, for our client. I strongly recommend her in family court matters."
