Max and his team did a splendid job on my divorce. They were very timely and always working with me on the best possible outcome.

April 13, 2021

After 25 years of marriage, my ex decided to file for divorce. He had a big career, he was self-employed, and there were numerous assets to consider. He was also a narcissist and tried to bully his way through the divorce process. I Interviewed more than 15 different law firms and was not impressed by any of them. My last stop was to Max Hanson’s office. I was so impressed by him from the 1st day to the last. The settlement that I received was more than I had hoped for and I can’t thank Max enough for all of his hard work dedication and his steady hand in this whole process. Divorce is never easy and when you’re dealing with a big mess on the other end, you want someone like Max in your corner who can take on anyone. The depth of Max his knowledge was incredible. I never felt nervous or scared because I knew Max would take care of everything and he really did. I highly recommend Max Hanson.

I worked with Max on a very difficult and problematic divorce. His professionalism, knowledge and support helped me tremendously. I can't say enough to reflect my gratitude for his constant support, attention to detail and advice. Retain him with confidence. I don't think you can do better in this area.

Fortunately Max was able to take over my case 2 months prior to trial! I can't express enough appreciation for all the hard work and expertise needed to bring my case to a conclusion. He and his wonderful office staff, including the best paralegal ever, Jackie, made my long journey tolerable, Divorcing a sociopath takes a special kind of knowledge. I can sincerely recommend Max Hanson to anyone with a complicated situation.

Max Hanson is highly intelligent and his insight, wisdom and strategies were extremely helpful during what turned out to be years of very complicated multi faceted litigation involving a dispute over millions of dollars. Max, we can't thank you enough for never holding back and being such a straight shooter. We highly recommend Max for any complex high asset litigation, he does not back down.

I would like to start this review by saying that there were multiple times that I was grateful Max Hanson was my lawyer. My divorce was contested, had many complications and my ex created challenge after challenge. Max never wavered, he stayed steady at it and helped me know how to handle those challenges. Max knows how to strategize, he's thorough and always prepared. He was pro mediation, but always had a plan if we had to go to trial. When mediation didn't work out for me, because of the other side, Max was diligent in his preparation for trial. My ex wanted to see that I got nothing. Max was prepared for whatever my ex tried. Through Max's diligence we were able to settle on the day of the trial and the settlement was fair. The judge commended Max, as do I. A complete professional. Through all my stress he was kind and compassionate, while answering all my questions. I felt like Max had my back, he looked out for me in more than one way. I highly recommend Max, he is excellent!

My ex-Husband is a very prominent business man. In his business dealings he has been involved in thousands of lawsuits and appeals. In all of the appeals my Husband has ever been in, he never lost, until he went up against Max. Max represented me in my divorce appeal, he won and he got me money. Max is an amazing attorney. His writing style, attention to detail, knowledge and professionalism are top notch and unsurpassed. Winning this appeal was the beginning of turning my case around in my favor. I will be eternally grateful to Max for everything he did for me. I could not have asked for anything more. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I met with Max Hanson and Michelle Perkins and they were the most honest lawyers I could ever recommend. I was going to appeal my court order but they didn't waist my time and my money and gave my result right away. I wish I knew this team before I filed my divorce. Max and Michelle spend hrs to look at my case and tried to help me. I highly recommend this team and appreciate their honesty. Amazing team work!

I have been working with Max Hanson for over 5 years on my legal situation and this professional attorney has been nothing short of incredible. There are many attorneys who tell one what they want to hear and paint this wonderful picture of future results without explaining facts, details and meaning. This couldn't be further from the truth with Mr. Hanson. I have been battling a legal situation with my ex-wife since 2011 and through it all, Max has stayed on course by not allowing me nor himself to become emotional involved in the "would be games" and "shenanigans" the opposing attorney and client have tried prodding us to follow. Max is brilliant as he has a logistical review and oversight of the case. He is determined to prove fact and therefore allow the justice system to understand the "case at hand" by dismissing emotional pleas to the courts from the opposing side. He is detailed and thorough and thinks about the points of the case that most would not even think of mentioning. I am certainly glad I have chosen Mr. Hanson as my legal representation and I am extremely proud of him and his efforts to put this issue to rest once and for all. Thank you Max!

I just recently went through a contentious divorce process. I retained Mr. Hanson for this unpleasant endeavor. I'm glad that I did. Max told me what to expect, without sugar coating anything. Even though I didn't like what he was telling me at times, he was absolutely correct in keeping my expectations realistic. He was always professional, courteous, but direct with his assessment on things. I'm glad Max was in my corner, fighting for me. I highly recommend him and his team. Thanks, Max!
