I have been exclusively with Marc Beyer for over 14 years handling my children's custody case. Marc has always advised me with the best interests of myself and my children. Fathers face many challenges navigating a custody system that favors mothers. Marc was able to help me secure 50/50 custody of my children, and set up terms that prevented many hardships their mother could have imposed on me. Marc recently helped me secure full custody of one of my children, and has me as a customer for life.

I came to Marc with a terrible situation. I was facing divorce and my now ex-wife was asking for sole legal and physical custody. I thought my situation was hopeless, and Marc guided me through a mediation process that could not have been more painless. I now currently share 50/50 legal and physical custody of my children thanks to Marc, and I was saved thousands of dollars by his ability to negotiate and represent. I am so thankful for his services, and would highly recommend using his firm.

Tim Simonson is excellent and very knowledgable. He listened, was patient and caring and non-judgemental about my contentious, complicated case. Was honest, genuine, professional and gave me good advice. Very attentive to detail and helped me keep the focus on the big picture and not get caught up with the pettiness of the opposing party.

My experience with Tim Simonson was exceptional. My reason for hiring Tim was because of a custody dispute. Tim was very kind and very patient with me. I had a lot of doubts and worries and anxieties throughout the entire case, which was very long. Tim is very knowledgeable, and very intelligent. He knows the law and he knows your rights and where you fall within your rights. Tim fought for my son and I and he won our case in full. I think that, when people are dealing with any type of dispute and are part of the legal system, it is hard to remember or understand the process, and the time it takes to get some kind of relief. Having an attorney like Tim who stays calm and listens to you is probably the number 1 thing a person needs to find when looking to hire an attorney. I truly believe Tim was a God send to my case. I had spoken to other attorneys before finding Tim and it seemed like they were just going to settle and not fight for what was right- as if it was not worth it. The amount of gratitude I have for Tim cannot be put in words. He is a really great attorney and a genuine person

Marcus is Great! Since my divorce, Marcus is the third and last attorney I will ever retain. Marcus was able to cut through the emotional bs and mountain of supposed "issues" raised by my ex wife. And when all was said and done, my ex lost her motion and my rights to my wonderful kids were retained. Marcus'es integrity and interest in doing what's best for kids is evident. Clearly family comes first in his world and he's not out to lead you down an expensive court-paved path simply to line his pockets. Thanks Marcus!

Regardless the circumstance, divorce is a very delicate time for all parties involved and Ms MacLean and her team took that into consideration when it came to our situation. Ms. MacLean is extremely knowledgable and understands the law and was able to explain everything to me start to finish, throughout the entire process. In addition, the divorce went very quickly and if ever there was a question, I could call or email and I was provided a reply back immediately. I recommend Ms MacLean and her law team to anyone who is considering a divorce as they will take great care of you during this difficult time.

I did not find this firm to be effective negotiators or clear communicators. I would not recommend using this firm to represent you.

Kyle Wermerskirchen represented me against my ex (Nikole Johnson’s husband below) to help collect child support that he failed to pay. Kyle succeeded in Court to obtain a judgment against my ex for unpaid child support. I would recommend him to anyone dealing with a difficult ex. Kyle was fast and efficient. He made this whole process a lot easier for me during this difficult time.

Gillian Blomquist was absolutely incredible to work with. Her professionalism and knowledge were both so helpful in what seemed like a never-ending case. I had a lot of questions and concerns but she always knew how to help guide me in the right direction and assure me that I was doing the right thing. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for family law legal advice. She is the one you want to have representing you and definitely knows her stuff.

Had a zoom child support hearing with opposing party yesterday; Mr. Wermerskirchen did not have his facts together whatsoever. He looked like a fool in front of the judge. Needless to say, we won (without an attorney!).

Kyle is honorable, knowledgeable of the law, fair, honest, hardworking and decent. You couldn’t ask for a better consultant, advocate and litigator. He is organized, prompt and confident while still remaining down to earth. I highly recommend him.

Kyle works very hard for you, he explains the entire process and let’s you know what can be expected. He is very straight forward, honest, consistent, personable and most importantly, down to earth. I highly recommend him!

When I started with the company I was happy with the details in which I was receiving. I felt things where happening in a timely manner. About 6 mo into the case I felt I was not getting the information that was needed. I stayed with the company because I felt this is what was needed and everyone hits a standstill. It wasn’t till I began thinking. Why am I paying all this money for no return calls or emails. No invoices. I had meeting set up but the lawyer wouldn’t show. It wasn’t till I changed lawyers that I began to see what timely results were. I still waiting for an refund/invoice of my funds. When this company is on top of its games, I was very happen in the beginning. I hope they are able to get the personal issues taken care of and go back to the lawyer firm I was told was so great..

Staci is an amazing attorney. She is fair and gives realistic advice. Some attorneys tell you what you want to hear only to find those options aren’t available or it’s not realistic expectation. I felt they were very transparent. Hire them for a honest attorney that’s reasonable financially.

5 years and counting. No invoice, will not return money owed. Just trying to wait us out again so we just go away. That's not going to happen. I was told they targeted Veterans such as myself.

Consumer beware.This law firm is under investigation for embezzling and ponzi schemes. They did not represent my case in anyway. I paid them $1,000 of dollars and never seen an invoice. Never got a call back for weeks. When everything was over I asked for an invoice and return of unused money. Still no call back and no invoice. Family law has been done for months now.

Ridiculous. My case was 5 years ago and I'm still suffering from this firms manipulation.

Ashley Bloch is Great! She was very understanding of all the changes and challenges we threw at her! Reasonably priced, and does good work. They only charge for the work they do and nothing more!

I would highly recommend Ashley to anyone seeking legal representation that is fair, honest and will keep your best interest and unique needs at the forefront. Should the situation arise, I would not hesitate to seek representation from Ashley Bloch again.

I worked with Ashley Bloch winter of 2016-2017 on my Divorce. Her straight forward approach and understanding of the law helped me weigh my options clearly. She was my advocate and advisor encouraging me to understand what my legal rights were in this case. She also gave me tools to enable succinct communications with my spouse to speed the process of the divorce and help us both come to agreement. Her many years of experience was obvious. She was able to get a quick view of the situations offered up as they developed. She expedited the contracts and processed the decree expertly even when there were some emotional challenges that came up. In the end, I felt very fortunate that I had her on my side with the voice of reason. She was a tremendous help. I would highly recommend Bloch and Whitehouse to any friend who is seeking legal assistance with Family Matters.

Cortney is very professional and really made me feel at ease! I was so unsure of what to expect going through a divorce, but she really made me feel well informed and comfortable after I left her office. She was always available…always responded to calls and emails within a short period of time, if not right away. I am very happy with my experience with her! More importantly…she was effective! She walked me through every step of my divorce, doing all of the paperwork, explaining everything, constantly in contact with me on next steps. The process went very smoothly and I always knew she was in my corner, no matter what! Thanks for everything!

My recent experience with Bloch & Whitehouse was as good as you can possible get. They were responsive, professional, realistic, direct, and knowledgeable throughout my case. Most importunately, they were very devoted and caring about obtaining the best outcome for my family.

Franz was phenomenal from the beginning process to the final signatures. He takes the time to explain everything thoroughly and doesn't make you feel incompetent not knowing some of the legal jargon presented in the documents. He has a very patient persona and takes the time to answer all questions no matter how tedious they may seem. This past year has been a big learning curve for me and he truly helped make my life change a smooth transition for me and my children. I will continue to refer him to anyone who needs a fantastic divorce lawyer.

I cannot say enough positive things about Franz or this law office. Franz takes the time to get to know each client individually. He truly CARES about your experience and what's happening in your life. And he takes this information to help create an informed, powerful, and personal case for each and every client. I knew the moment I met with him that I wanted to work with him as my lawyer and have referred MANY friends to him and will continue to do so. Franz is the kind of person who sees and cares for others. And he applies this kindness and care to each and every case he works on. I would hire him again and again.

Divorce can be scary and heartbreaking. I made many calls to lawyers when considering my divorce. I was exhausted and devastated by the time I talked to Franz. I chose him because he showed me empathy. He didn’t take advantage of my emotional state. He offered a different option called a “Divorce Agreement,” that I had never heard of. This was helpful with the cost, which in turn, allowed me to save money and help support my children. He gives great advice and truly understands the stages of grieving. He thoroughly walked me through each step while showing patience, kindness, and a humor. He was professional and very responsive. I always felt supported, and I truly feel blessed. I highly recommend Franz; You will not be disappointed.

I am very glad I chose to hire Franz to help me through my divorce. He showed real empathy and offered great advice. He didn't mind explaining the process to me in plain language and describing possible outcomes of various decisions. I can't recommend him enough.

From day one, Franz was very professional and responsive throughout the whole divorce process. Franz provided all the available options and worked seamlessly to get the job done. Franz is by far one of the best divorce Lawyer in town and would recommend him for anyone needing these services!

My divorce was neither easy nor quick, but her calm and thorough approach proved to be exactly what my situation needed. She is extremely smart, well-versed in all areas of family law and truly cares about her clients.

I was the opposing party of her law firm for my divorce. My ex is a control freak and tried to control the entire process. Instead of calming down her client ms Callahan enabled my ex to proceed to drag me through the mud. I seriously question her ethics. I will never never never recommend her to anyone. And now the two of them are coming after me again for more custody of my son. I mean if you want a cut throat lawyer who will literally bow at your feet and do whatever you want then give her a call. But if you want someone who has ethics then this place isn’t for you.

Beginning with her informative website which characterizes high conflict personality types in an understandable way, I was able to move forward with my divorce in a logical, rational and effective manner while avoiding much of the chaos I fully expected. Without actually meeting Christine in person due to Covid, she was able to conduct and conclude a favorable settlement which accounted for all the details of a complex transaction remotely...a remarkable achievement in my experience and I've been in business many years. She is an empathetic partner that walked with me down a very difficult path gaining my full trust in her integrity and competence. I consider myself fortunate to have first stumbled upon her website and then having the good sense to engage her services. She is one of the few lawyers I've ever met that exceeded my expectations. Divorce dosesn't have to be a beat down if sound counsel is followed. With Christine I understood my role, what had to be done and how best to go about it. I recommend her without reservation.

Christine was extremely helpful and knowledgeable which kept my stress level down during my divorce. Considering I’ve never met her and live four states away, I felt very comfortable with her and trusted her to guide me through the process in Minnesota. She kept in constant contact with me and her communications were informational and helpful. She was always available for a phone call if I had questions and I felt like I truly had an advocate for my interests in the divorce. While I hate that I had to go through this, I’m very happy that I found Christine and had her representation throughout the entire proceeding. I would highly recommend her.

Christine is a dream to work with. I will recommend her to anyone.

Christine was patient and kind. She both literally and figuratively held my hand through what became one of the most harrowing situations in my life. Every minute she knew exactly what to do, and she was ALWAYS right. Her expertise and general care and understanding of my situation was beyond the typical lawyer's job. Even post divorce, she continues to be a guide as the kids and I move into this new lifestyle.
