When going through a life-altering situation like divorce, it’s critical to surround yourself with a solid support system – both emotionally and legally. Erica Wikander’s approach to family law goes far beyond the legal process; she and her team practice genuine care, show sensitivity to both sides, and work tirelessly to reach fair compromises. As a client, I absolutely felt taken care of personally, and I’m grateful for the care they extended to my ex-husband, as well. The divorce process doesn’t have to inflict more pain than is already being experienced by a couple in transition, and I’m thankful for Erica’s help in making the divorce process as kind and fair as possible.

***UPDATED I've been very disappointed with my experience. After numerous attempts over several months expressing a concern shortly after my divorce was final, I received zero feedback or any interest.
********Since I've gotten such a lovely detailed message back regarding my review, I will elaborate. You have not received my final payment because since the moment I have tried to touch base with Jennifer regarding my concerns, there has been no response. What a coincidence. Without spewing the remaining details of my divorce, which shows how professional you are by giving out details of my personal divorce on the internet, don't give out false numbers. You are missing $600 of over $3500 I've already paid you. This was not a nasty long or drawn out divorce. The only time I ever heard back from Jennifer was in January when I had absolutely had it- which led to nasty back and forth email correspondence.
Flat out, I had the most simple divorce someone could ask for. There wasn't fighting, multiple things shared, homes, cars, etc, we shared - nothing. We have our daughter and agreeing upon child support had minimal back and forth. But Jennifer has gotten paid to do the bare minimal work. On top of that, not answer multiple voicemails, emails, anything - because I owe $600 out of the thousands you've already received.
You treated a client poorly, so you are getting a poor review.

Jennifer Johnson did a great job on my case. She was very helpful with every aspect. I would definitely recommend her.
Stay away, unless you want to waste your money on attorneys that dont have your best interest in mind!!

I have had collaborative cases with both Jennifer Johnsen and Erica Wikander. I experienced them both to be focused on creative problem solving and creating peace for families after the divorce is over. I can't say that about every lawyer so it's always a pleasure when I encounter fellow lawyers who really care.

Randy Velzen was professional, efficient, and caring. He made himself very available for questions and promptly answered emails and phone calls.He gave me thorough explanations so nothing was a surprise. He has my highest recommendations.

I am a small business owner and have dealt with many law firms over the years. Velzen is BY FAR the WORST firm I have EVER dealt with. I hired them to handle a SIMPLE divorce matter and for TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS I received a puppy who just rolled over in court. For this firm to show up and fight for me I was quoted TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS. I was charged for every PAPERCLIP, EMAIL and probably for broken fingernails from having to reply to my emails. DO NOT hire this firm for ANY reason UNLESS you enjoy paying for office supplies!!
