Maren was my lawyer back in 2015. She helped me through a nasty divorce to a narcissistic man. She gave me confidence to keep going and without her team backing me up, I would have crumbled. They were understanding of my situation and helped me every step of the way .

This is the right attorney for you! Maren and her team will take care of you in every way necessary! I was very frustrated and being taken advantage of by a crazy spouse. Because of this, I lost my cool several times during the process. Maren was able to talk to me like a human being, understand where I was coming from, and then guide me through the process. The Skulborstad Legal Group did every thing I needed and more! They treat you like family. It would be a mistake to look elsewhere!

Maren Skulborstad represents integrity, diligence, objectivity, patience and excellent communication skills. She demonstrated skilled document preparation which the judge appreciated and her experience showed in the courtroom. Her professionalism was self-evident, she spoke in a clear concise manner and used her time well considering the restraints of the court. We were able to expose the unscrupulous behaviour of the petitioner and were very satisfied with the outcome. I sincerely would not hesitate to recommend Maren Skulborstad and I would like to thank her for the commitment and consideration she has shown my son and his daughter.

When I first met Maren I was attempting to handle my divorce "per se", but my ex's attorney's was not wanting to negotiate in a good faith manner. I hired Maren initially on a "limited scope representation" basis, she kept me on track and reviewed the documents I had to submit to the courts. We ended up going to court(I then hired Maren to handle my full case) and my ex's attorney, would tell anyone who would listen, that she taught three law classes at a local university.  If she was trying to intimidate Maren it did not work, inside the courtroom Maren took my ex's attorney to task, and the judge awarded me my legal share of our home's equity and had the amount of time I had to pay alimony cut in half.  My ex's attorney had convinced my ex she was entitled to 100 percent of our home's equity and 400 percent of the alimony that was due to her, neither happened. I find myself fortunate that I was able to find such fantastic representation, I highly recommend Maren's services.

After a long marriage and deciding to divorce, I was struggling with how to proceed fairly and find a balanced resolution of finances, etc. Maren was very good at explaining my options and helping me decide which to choose, and sometimes gave me a good "dope slap" to think differently about my rights and not just be kind to my ex! The final results worked out very well.

Skulborstad Law firm is amazing! I experienced trustworthiness, great communication through entire case and results that I wanted! Attention to deadlines were always met! Maren was very good at explaining law and facts so I could clearly understand what was and would be happening through entire process. I would highly recommend Maren to anyone!

Not only did Maren take care of my children’s custody she took care of me. She was and is always available to talk when I need advice, and always put my children’s and my best interest first. She is a wonderful caring person and I would recommend her to anyone going through a divorce.

I retained Maren to handle my real estate transaction. I made an offer that was accepted. I later learned the seller accepted a second offer within 3 mins of accepting mine. The seller wanted to brush me off and go away. In the end, Maren was successful in resolving the messy, time sensitive transaction without going to court. I got the house of my dreams! Maren is professional, knowledgeable and easy to reach. I would highly recommend her.

Ms. Skulborstad was recommended to me when my ex hired a lawyer for the divorce case. She was great at navigating all the legal matters involved with the divorce. My ex's lawyer was would not agree on anything and ended up taking us to court. Ms Skulborstad was stellar in the courtroom and used all her tools to win our case.

i hired Maren to help me with a real estate banking matter. i needed help immediately. She was able to gather all required information, draft a letter, get it delivered, and saved my you-know-what just in the nick of time. Her arguments against my opponents were stellar, and turned my whole case around, putting me in the position of power. i am usually adverse to hiring attorneys, and feel they cost a lot of money, but Maren was worth every penny and more, i was happy to pay her bill. i have used Maren's services since then and will continue to do so.
