I was very happy the first year that my attorney made a schedule for two years so that me and my ex had something to go by and it would stop any future arguements on who had the kids on what weekend. My attorney was Thomas and Bailey helped make a schedule because my ex claimed he couldn't go 3 weekends without seeing his kids, so on my year they altered the schedule to accommodate my ex because I would have more weekends that fell on my exs weekend, and they also made a schedule for the following year for us to follow, however my ex did not honor it and his attorney didn't care that we accommodated my ex the year before. So I was very disappointed because of this and by this time I didn't have my attorney defending me anymore because I couldn't afford to pay him. But next time you make a schedule for any of your clients, you as the attorney need to do what's best for your client, not the other party because the parties don't always have a good heart with good intentions. I didn't give you a good review because of this. I am still bothered by this because I trusted you and I spent a lot of money I didn't have.

Lindsay Torgerson helped me navigate an uncomfortable process with ease, kindness, and professionalism. I'm so grateful to her for her outstanding attention to detail and confidence in guiding me through. Thank you!

I did not have an outstanding bankruptcy experience with Lindsay and I think it is imperative that I share my story. Towards the end of the bankruptcy process Lindsay’s office sent me something I had questions on so I called her. When I ask her if it was necessary seeings how my case was already filed, she got defensive. Lindsay quickly deflected from the letter and said something like ~I’ve never had anyone else get this angry about the letter before~. Now the conversation is about my emotional reaction to this letter instead of the letter itself. On that call Lindsay and I both talked over each other. We both raised our voices. I backed off and let Lindsay speak. After she was done speaking I said “May I speak now?” She replied along the lines of ~Yeah, as long as you’re not going to be a jerk~. I said “Lindsay I’m not calling you names.” She then replied along the lines of ~I didn’t call you a jerk, I said if you’re not going to be a jerk~. Not only did Lindsay call me a jerk, she didn’t seem to care about my thought process or feelings. I don’t feel like she ever trusted me or my word. Lindsay was condescending and patronizing towards me. She made me feel small. In my experience when Lindsay gets questioned on something she trumps up with her own set of facts and then hides behind legalese, deflection, and name calling. Is my debt clear? Yes. Do I think my bankruptcy was filed properly? Yes. Do I feel like I was respected during the bankruptcy process? Absolutely not. I had traumatizing bankruptcy experience with Lindsay that will live with me for years. She never apologized for calling me a jerk.

I am very happy with my services with Wine Country Law. Thank you!

Really great and helpful. Made the process quite painless, would definitely recommend!

So great to work with a lawyer like Lindsay Torgerson and her team,, I trust her completely because she has so much integrity and never gambles with her clients successful outcome even if it means going the extra mile and a lot of hard work for her and her team.

I am so grateful for Lindsay Torgerson & her staff at WCFLB. Thank you for your knowledge and understanding and for helping me through a difficult situation!

When I hired Thomas Shields, not only did I get representation from a top attorney that I could completely trust with my case, but a whole firm that was willing to work for my best interest. What is special about Wine Country Family Law and Bankruptcy is they are a team that works together with integrity that binds their efforts together. I could not be more satisfied. I would recommend Mr. Shields, and the whole firm at Wine Country Family Law and Bankruptcy to anyone I cared about who needs legal representation with family law or bankruptcy.
