Consulted with Mieke on child custody and parenting time issues. She was very professional and extremely helpful with my case. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced attorney with family law issues.
Mieke did a wonderful job with my divorce. Even though my ex wife and I agreed to everything with nothing to contest, I still felt we needed an attorney make sure everything was done correctly. Mieke typed up the agreement and explained everything in laymans terms. That was the critical thing. She explained why we need this and why did not need that in the agreement. This really paid off because at the court, the judge noted we had no legal representation but was pleased our papperwork was done perfectly. It was well worth the small fee she charged us. she is now my go to legal counsel for anything. If she cannot handle it, she directs me to a lawyer that can. I value that kind of service.
Helped me with child support issues. Was very helpful and knowledgeable. You should hire her to help you with your case
When I was going through my divorce, Meike worked hard to help me keep my babies home as much as possible and helped me to make sure my ex-husband also got the time he wanted with our children as well. She is professional, and a hard worker, that was always there when I needed her. So much so, I hired her another time to help me with fathers estate after his passing.
I needed an attorney right away to help me with a Power of Attorney so I could make medical decisions for my son. She's a very competent attorney with a lot of compassion for her clients. I highly recommend her and plan to use her for other estate planning needs.
Going through a divorce involving child custody can be a painful experience. Mieke, always seemed focused on meeting my goals even at the expense of billable hours. Although I didn't get the exact result I wanted (that rarely happens in a divorce), she was honest about the issues related to my divorce which allowed me to make the best choice for my situation. Overall, I was please with her representation.
Mieke was recommended by another attorney when I contacted her previous firm for legal assistance. Mieke's navigation for my case made the process very easy and virtually stress-free. Any questions I had, she made the time to answer and made sure I was clear on the answers. I was very comfortable working with her, and would not hesitate to request her expertise in the future if needed. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing legal assistance.
I retained Mieke about 3 years ago when my ex-husband filed a motion to gain custody of our 3 children. Mieke was extremely detail oriented and very sharp. I appreciated how she listened to me and was extremely thorough in researching my complaints. In doing so, she was able to get the custody motion denied along with my ex's motion to take our 3 children out of the country for vacations. I would highly recommend Mieke and her team.
This attorney did not do what she was paid to do. My husband and and I were mislead from the onset by being told a Petition would be filed in our estate dispute. I kept asking when it would be filed and kept getting ignored until,after several weeks, I was informed that there was NOTHING SHE COULD DO!! She should have admitted this before taking our money. I have requested a refund, in writing, and have had no response, as usual, thus far.
