Based on the advice from several people, I consulted with Jake Hardee at the Law Firm of Hardee, Pinol, & Kracke PLLC here in Boise, Idaho.
Jake uncovered financial irregularities and helped me retain and recover thousands of dollars.
He is the one to see if you are in need of legal services.

Jake is the attorney you want in your corner in any high-conflict divorce and custody case. He continually put the best interest of my children and me front-and-center throughout the many twists and turns of my divorce.
This was especially true in drafting exact and precise stipulations to hold the other party accountable to avoid the court system from being manipulated or abused.
He found knowledgeable witnesses to support my case.
Through honing his skills with continuing education and experience in hostile conflict (domestic abuse) cases as well as military and veteran issues, he is able to protect his client as well as obtain favorable outcomes.
Jake’s expertise and support is an experience I am most thankful for, and will continue to be, for years to come.

Jake Hardee represented the Ex husband of a woman I dated. He was very good and she was penalized for not fulfilling her obligations in a timely manner.
Two years later I found myself in a very challenging predicament with time constraints. The associate at the firm who took my call told me Jake Hardee would be my best bet and was he ever. In record time, he was able to elequently and powerfully sumarize my situation for the judge and get me a hearing. He not only turned my situation around… He managed to clear it up.
I didnt have a chance without him. He is as good as it gets - he’s on top of the details and gave me a voice when I needed it most. His Legal assistant is also excellent. It takes a great team to do what they do and he has one. Jake’s skills speak for themselves. I am very thankful for his services and highly recommend Jake Hardee. He’s worth it.

Mr. Brownson assisted my primary Lawyer, Chuck Peterson, with a situation of false allegations against me. He is very well connected and understands how the systems works. Along with his partner Chuck, he put me at ease and helped guide me through a difficult situation. In the end no charges were ever brought against me and everything was dropped. Having good representation was crucial to making sure the issue did not escalate and I am truly grateful to Jeff and his partner Chuck for their professionalism and assistance.

I consulted with a couple of attorney's prior to contacting
Ashley Marelius. After speaking with Ashley, I knew she was the one for me and I'm so grateful she was able to take my case. Ashley provided alternatives to resolve my case that the other two attorneys I consulted with didn't bother to explore. I would highly recommend this firm, Ashley specific, to handle any family law issues that you may have. Ashely is professional, courtesy and above all else listens to your specific challenge and will work with you to resolve your issues in an expedited manner.

Craig is absolutely the best. Even though I was in full panic, he was straight-forward, calm and professional. He told me how everything would work and what to expect.

I should have reviewed Kimberly years ago when she helped my wife obtain her green card, (the path to her present US citizenship) explaining every option/risks for each, and all while making us feel at ease with her level of expertise other lawyers we had consulted prior could not match. A friend asked me this week if I knew of a good immigration attorney. I said, "she's not good, she's only the best", which prompted me to write this review.
Other friends whom had used various other attorneys instead of Kimberly seriously regretted their choice based on the poor results they received despite having similar circumstances to ours. We would hire her again in a hear beat!

you will speak to in Boise and all of Idaho (and even Nevada!). Kim has worked closely on my immigration case since 2018, and I always proudly announce that she is my attorney.
Kim's work is passionate and purposeful; her efforts are relentless and extremely effective. Her knowledge of the current immigration laws is impressive. Not to mention, she has the kindest personality and an adventurous heart, which helped me feel at ease when I had to share all of the traumatic events from the past to help me build my political asylum case.
The immigration process isn't necessarily a breeze for many people, including me, and in moments when my anxiety drives me crazy, Kim always has a detailed answer to every single one of my million questions. She is very responsive, and I know she is always there to help because of her commitment to making this world a better place.
A couple of years after we submitted all the documents, my case got approved, and my green card application is coming up next. The last time I visited Kim's office, my immigration-related anxiety was completely gone. Kim has proved to be a fantastic immigration attorney over and over, which made me completely stop worrying about my future in this country.
I will be forever thankful to Kim Schaefer at Schaefer Law Firm for all the effort she put in to help me live my wonderful life here in the United States.

I came in for a consultation and Sam listened to me and gave it to me straight. This is exactly what I needed. To understand what I wanted to accomplish and how I may need to compromise. He gave me alternative situations and advised me that I may not get exactly what I was looking for because of my situation. But he also explained that what I was looking could be accomplished down the road if it didn’t work now. The consultation was so informative he even told me I might not even need him and I could do it myself. I knew this going into it. (And was relieved to know he wasn’t just trying to get my money. As I’ve heard other previous horror stories from friends and family when it comes to other Lawyers.) However my other Co-Parent had already hired a lawyer, I wanted the peace of mind Sam brought to the table. Also his firms reputation was nice. And it shined through in his professionalism and timely communication. In the end it went exactly how Sam and I discussed it would happen. In six months I will be 50/50 Co Parent. Thank you Sam!!! And my Son thanks you as well!!!!

I went through a high-conflict divorce that involved false accusations and threats around taking away custody. It was a stressful process, but Sam guided me through it, kept things in perspective, always had a game plan, and somehow managed to add in some humor through it all to lighten the mood. We won literally everything I asked for in court - I'm so glad I trusted him with one of the biggest decisions of my life. Highly recommend.

Sam is great. I would not recommend another family law attorney to anyone. My case was quite extensive and very high conflict. Sam got me a result that I would have never expected. He conducted himself professionally with me and with counsel on the other side and it is easy to see that Sam is highly respected amongst his peers. He was extremely empathetic with my situation and was able to guide me through each issue that arose calmly and professionally. He gave me straight forward advice and never promised me anything that he couldn't deliver. He told me all the risks involved with each path we could take and enabled me to make informed decisions. Sam was able to walk me and talk me through some of the lowest points of my entire life. If you are going thru a family law case and want a fair, reasonable, intelligent, straight shooter that delivers real results, go with Sam.

I initially retained Shane for my divorce case after meeting with a few other lawyers, because he was polite & very straightforward. Handled the divorce with minimal additional stress to me. Earlier this year (some 2 years after the divorce) he also handled a messy custodial modification & got a better outcome than I had dared to hope for. Hire him - you won’t be sorry.

I got pulled over simply BECAUSE I have Oregon plates (No other reason at all),,, ZERO problems with my driving. I smoke pot for medicinal purposes from an US ARMY injury from 1974, I'm LUCKY to get a low-dose aspirin from the VA. I had over the 3 ounce limit and they hit me with a felony. I'm not acriminal so that hit me hard, I'm just a 61 year old disabled vet that cant even get pain management from the VA. I've been waiting 10 years for a double broken wrist operation from the VA. Now I have nerve damage and muscle disinagration in my wrist and hand and can sometimes barely tie my shoes. I have Advanced Osteoarthritis as well. THAT IS WHY I HAD POT. At any rate Shane saved my ass from this felony and preserved my 1st and 2nd amendment rights as well in the process. THAT is very important to me as an American Citizen to be able to VOTE and to DEFEND MYSELF ! Those RIGHTS are essential !!! Shane negotiated the felony to a low level misdemeanor with a $225.oo fine and said he would get it dismissed in a few more months. Shane has got to be the MOST HONEST LAWYER (I thought I would NEVER say that about a lawyer in my life) I have ever even heard of. Shane actually gave me a **REFUND** of 80% of my initial deposit. (( *** " I'm sure this was an exceptionally easy case for Shane so This probably isn't the norm" )) But I was FLOORED. He said my case was easy !! I am VERY GRATEFUL to Shane for his Honesty and Integrity and FINE CRAFTSMANSHIP !! Thank You Shane :)

I cannot say enough good things about Ashley Marelius and the team at Breen, Ball & Marelius. From the very first consultation, they were professional, kind, and incredibly supportive during a difficult time. They took the time to explain all my options clearly, ensuring that I understood every step of the process.
Their prompt service and attention to detail made everything feel seamless. Any time I had a question or concern, they responded quickly and with compassion. I truly felt like they had my best interests at heart, and their expertise gave me confidence throughout my case.
If you’re looking for a family law attorney who is not only knowledgeable but also genuinely cares about their clients, I highly recommend them. They made a challenging situation much more manageable, and I am so grateful for their guidance and professionalism.

Mr. Van Valkenburgh represented me in a matter regarding my professional license. His willingness to understand, first the history and second the technical aspects of the case were outstanding.

I highly recommend both Jack Van Valkenburgh and Sam Johnson for legal representation, particularly if you have been falsely accused, mistreated, or suffered denial of your rights at the hands of police or private businesses. We were targetted solely because of our race. We were mistreated and publicly humiliated. Working together, Mr. Van Valkenburgh and Mr. Johnson effectively pressured the police and business to settle out of court (the terms of the settlement are sealed) in a manner that properly redressed our wrongful arrests and detentions.
In addition to his skilled advocacy, Mr. Van Valkenburgh stayed in good communication with us throughout the litigation. It is without hesitation that I recommend him as your attorney in legal battles against police, other governmental officials, or private business.

On January 4, 2009, I was wrongfully tased by a Fruitland Police Officer as my roommate and I removed his drunk and violent girlfriend from our house.
The Officer arrived on scene and without saying a word, he pulled out his Taser and shot me! Fifty thousand volts violently ran through my body for five seconds...but that wasn't even close to being the worst part. Five days after the incident, the Officer filed "Battery Charges" against me in an attempt to cover up the tasing...and for the first time in my life I needed legal help.
After a lot of wasted time and money...I simply believe my first attorney was afraid of the fight...and that's when I was referred to Jack Van Valkenburgh. Jack had the knowledge, experience and respect of the legal community which facilitated a fair judgment. More importantly...Jack got the "Battery Charge" expunged from my record.
It is without hesitation that I refer Jack Van Valkenburgh to orchestrate your fight and resolve your legal issues.
You won't be sorry...Jack KICKS ASS!

I never seen an attorney so talented with her words and just total bada** that at the end of my review hearing, I actually felt bad for the prosecutor. During the hearing, Prosecuting attorney reminded me of a 4th string rookie quarterback playing his first NFL game and gets destroyed in it~~ Jessica was throwing them objections after objections then blitz. I'm pretty sure that the prosecuting attorney cried himself to sleep that night... real talk. She is like a wonder woman. you wonder where that punch came from. (you know... since she is so tiny and reserved) I learned that she is quiet and reserves her energy and focus because she is about to "#micdrop" in the courtroom.

I would recommend Jessica if you are looking for a great disability or personal injury lawyer. She literally wrote the book on disability and will not stop pursuing a disability case until she is out of options or gets her clients benefits; usually the latter. I haven't used her in a disability case personally, but I know many people who have and won their benefits.

He represented me in an EEO dispute with my employer. They were playing very dirty & trying to destroy a professional reputation I spent more than 10 years building. The employer used lies, manipulations such as pressuring my subordinates to file complaints about me or loose their own jobs to create a reason to fire me because I refused to participate in the illegal & unethical business practices my superiors were demanding I participate in.
Mr. Beckham worked tirelessly to protect my job & my reputation by hitting the agency & the corrupt leadership from every angle possible, to include involving Congress & other federal officials in the matters that pertained to my employer's deliberate violations relating to federal laws & policies to include their attempts to force me to misuse taxpayer money.
Without Mr. Beckham's foresight and preparations of ten steps ahead of their next moves, I would have been another statistic of the whistle blower that got stomped by "the man".
But I am not, in fact I was compensated for the hell they put me through, the lies in my records were removed & the actions taken by this attorney had far reaching consequences for the leadership members who perpetrated this attack as the agency has now three years later been cleaned out of most of the major players at that federal agency.

I was lucky enough to be represented by Mr. Beckham in a criminal appeal (along with several other people he was representing in similar cases). I had been fined and sentenced to jail time beyond what was allowed by the law. Mr. Beckham did not stand for this! I learned, though my experience with him, that he is an honest and hardworking attorney who fights to get the best possible outcome for everyone he serves. He definitely proved this by the work he did my case (and from what I saw him do at the Court of Appeals in the other cases he argued on the same day). I was amazed when he prepared a 25-page written argument, on my behalf, which turned out to be irrefutable! And, when it came to the oral arguments in my case, he did an outstanding job when he took on the 3-Judge Panel at the Cheyenne River Sioux Court of Appeals. This is a hardworking attorney who I believe is a great legal thinker; it shows in his writing and arguing skills. I was lucky to have him in my corner fighting for me - I won.

dismissed. The case can be reviewed in the listing of Appellant cases on the Cheyenne River. He is quick, very intelligent, young and qAttorney Brandon Beckham was the attorney on a case here in the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribal Courts, Eagle Butte, SD where he was employed. He helped us file a Criminal Appeal Case that he won where Judge Gunville was retrying my son on a case that had already been dismissed. The case can be reviewed on the list of Appellant cases on the Cheyenne River. He is quick witted and very intelligent. On a scale of 1-10, I give him a 10. Thank you for giving us this time to recommend attorney Beckham. Vivian

I originally had made an appointment with a different attorney, but when I read the reviews about Ms. Penton, I decided to meet with her first. At our first meeting she used the word "ethical" and told me that even though initially, my divorce was to be amicable, I was ultimately her client and ethically there would be things she could not disclose to my then spouse.
As it turned out, my divorce ended up being extremely harsh and drawn out due to my spouse. Ms. Penton helped me navigate the convoluted judicial system and my spouse's attorney's filings. There were times when I didn't think she was listening, but then she would use what I told her in filings and in court. I felt very protected and well represented by Ms. Penton and her assistant.
Both Ms. Penton and her assistant were empathetic to my situation and showed much needed support.
The final thing I would add which really stuck with me and prompted me to write this review was that there was not ONE person from the gentleman who served my husband to any person where her office was located who had a negative thing to say about her. As I sat in the lobby, trying not to look upset, these individuals would come up to me and say that "Ms. Penton is very good at what she does" and that she would take care of me. I would recommend her to anyone going through a divorce or other legal matters in which she operates.

We hired Ms. Penton to handle my wife's immigration from Canada. It only took 3 months from the time forms were filed to get her EAD, PR card, and social security card. Great experience. I strongly recommend Ms. Penton and even more strongly recommend you do exactly as she advises. Her assistant, Maricela, was also outstanding and very patient on the phone answering questions from my wife. Great firm.

Dan represented my husband after he received a traumatic brain injury from a motor vehicle collision with a drunk driver. Dan worked with me as my husband was limited in his cognitive abilities. I had never worked with a lawyer before. Dan was friendly and patient with me. He and his assistant were very accessible. They either answered the phone or got back to me right away. He was able to work with numerous entities that I would not have been able or capable of. His service allowed me to care for my husband. He even attended and supported us during the criminal court sessions. He has gone far and above the required services. The outcome of my husband's case has exceeded my expectations. I am very thankful for Dan's services and would highly recommend him. On top of it all he has become a friend.

I was picked up on a couple of bogus charges by the Twin Falls Police Department. Dan did an amazing job fighting for me. The the prosecutor would not drop the charges, so we took the case to jury trial where I was acquitted on all charges. I can't thank him enough for believing in me and bringing my family back together. He is a great trial lawyer and I would recommend him to anyone.

If you are looking for an attorney that is not afraid of anything and will fight for your rights, look no further. Edwina is the Best. I was charged with aggravated assault for something I did not do. She was able to get my charge dismissed and now I am able to have my life back. Thank you so much Edwina. You have been a Blessing in my life. Before I met her, I thought attorneys like her only existed in movies...

I was referred to Mr. Dickinson on a worker's compensation issue I had. From the outset of meeting him, he was very professional and patient with me (I was really worked up about my issue). I didn't really know much about what my rights were and Mr. Dickinson helped me to understand exactly what I needed to know. He even helped guide me to the right resources to use if I had questions in the future. While I couldn't end up pursuing my issue further, Mr. Dickinson was very honest with me about the strengths and weaknesses of my issue. I would highly recommend even if just for a consultation like I did!

I feel like Mr Haws was extremely knowledgeable and professional in all of his dealings. Even more importantly he took the time to really listen to my values and objectives. I never once doubted that he and his firm always had my personal interest as their first priority when making decisions. At every turn I was asked for my input and was made to feel a part even when terminology and procedure and to be explained and re- explained. Mr Haws has a gift of understanding with the tenacity to get results.

Recently John Hummel created a will for my husband and I. He was very helpful in assisting us with gathering all the information necessary to be thorough. He helped us clarify details for the distribution of our assets and specific instructions for end of life scenarios. Not only did all the documents he produce have the necessary legal rhetoric, but John included personalized references to our particular situation. He was compassionate, organized, and meticulous at every step. Our interaction with Mr. Hummel was formal enough to give ous confidence and personal enough to put us at ease.
I highly recommend John Hummel of Hummel Law Offices.
