Rian F. Ankerholz

He spoke down to me. He did absolutely NOTHING for my custody case, He prolonged me seeing my children for seven months before I finally got a real lawyer who does their job. In five weeks after hiring another attorney I was reunited with my kids AND under the terms I wanted. Rian literally laughed ...in my face and told me that wouldnt happen. FIRED AND NEVER RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYBODY THAT I ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT. Smug and arrogant jerk

I hired Than to represent me in my divorce case. He seemed knowledgeable, available and willing to go to bat for me at first. Then after receiving my retainer, it would take him a week to respond to emails. He became interested in taking the path of least resistance and even after communicating ...serious concerns about my former spouse, he acted nonplussed. It came to the point where I felt as if I had to convince him to stand up for my rights, rather than him looking for ways to represent me. Unfortunately, I had to fire him when it became clear he had a previous working relationship with another attorney who was representing my ex spouse, which caused a conflict of interest. Even after I fired him and he filed the papers to withdraw representation on my case, he still was in contact with the attorneys representing my ex spouse. Rian, on two separate occasions, attempted to reinsert himself into my case and handled my personal and financial information with other parties. This lead me to have to reach out to the Missouri and Kansas State Bar associations. I cannot in good conscious, recommend Rian as an attorney.

We lost every thing by consulting him. He takes money from his client and works for opposing attorney. He gives all our feed back to opposing attorney. Thus we lost every thing by hiring him. Billed heavily for unwanted things. We have received huge bill and lost the case. He do not suggest any thin...g for winning the case and works for other party. Increases conversation and more paper work to bill heavily to client. He do not even suggest what to reply if a query comes from opposing attorney, which he is supposed to reply legally. Advisable to hire him if you want to lose the case,prolong the case and want huge bill from him.

Ryan Ankerholz represented me in a workman's comp case and if it wasn't for him convincing me to be patient I would've received 50% less!!!! He kept me informed of everything going on and what he told me would happen did and I received the MAXIMUM amount allowed in the state of Kansas!!!!! I would re...commend him to anyone who wants to win their case. If you have any questions and want to speak with a reference, ask for my number and I'm willing to do exactly what he did for me and that is be HONEST!!!!!!! Sincerely, Brian P.
