Hired Attorney Ryan A. Phelan

Just fantastic. Ryan made me feel comfortable whenever I was feeling nervous about a situation in my divorce. She responded quickly. She very quickly grasped what I was dealing with and in a short amount of time, I trusted her completely. I went to Ryan after getting frustrated with my first attorney who was just not experienced enough to take my case. Ryan won my case, the judge actually signed our findings of facts. Ryan coached me before we went to trial and I felt confident to have her represent me. I would recomment Ryan a million times over. She lifted me up in a time that was very difficult for me. Thank you Ryan for being absolutely exceptional.

Working with Ryan was a very easy, peaceful, and informative situation. She asked great questions, which I would not have thought of, was very responsive, made my wife and I feel comfortable about a sensitive subject, and guided us like a friend. I would highly recommend Ryan as an attorney!

Hired Attorney Ryan A. Phelan

Ryan handled my divorce and parenting action with skill and integrity. It was the worst time of my life, but I knew that I could count on her guidance and professionalism. Years later, I am now in the field myself and remain convinced that you cannot find a better family law attorney. Ryan is tough in court when she needs to be, but she is also able to use her professional relationships to work collaboratively with other attorneys to avoid unnecessary costs and bring about timely resolutions

Ryan is very caring and easy to talk to. She is very knowledgeable in parenting and divorce. She was polite to everyone, even the opposing party who made outrageous demands.

Hired Attorney Ryan A. Phelan

Didn't communicate well throughout the case, left me with a substandard settlement and an outrageous final bill of approximately $70k for last 2 months on a year long issue. Basically bled me dry then sold me out on a poor settlement that has been a thorn in my side ever since. All of this along with a six figure bill.

Hired Attorney Ryan A. Phelan

Very disappointed with the lack of communication and professionalism. I’ve never experienced an attorney who completely disregards numerous emails and phone calls, but continues to deduct money from a down payment. I most definitely would not recommend.
