Going through a divorce is never easy but Greg's knowledge, willingness to explain the process and being available to me when I needed him made it easier. If your in needed of representation I'd highly recommend Greg and his firm.

Greg was very thorough and concerned. He explained the process and helped me understand what to expect. By keeping all involved, level headed, the end result was better than expected.

Sue Hansen and her team were gentle, professional, efficient, and truly caring as I went through the divorce process. The Commissioner conducting my final hearing stated, “this is not a woman state, this is not a man state, this IS a kid state.” Sue and her team exuded that very important piece into all of our meetings. The level of hurt I had behind the reason for the divorce impacting my children was alleviated as best as possible through the mediation process. Excellent guidance was provided in all components of this situation. Sue and her staff were exemplary and compassionate while still aiding me through the divorce system itself. I was told by multiple people, “it will get better.” With the help of Sue, she was a big factor in making that advice true. You will not regret the help of Sue, especially if you have children.

Filing for divorce was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. I needed a lawyer I could trust to help me through the process and Paul was the perfect attorney for me. Not only was he knowledgeable, he was honest and kind and kept me informed throughout the entire process.

I feel incredibly fortunate to have had Greg Hildebrand as our mediator. He is smart, fair, professional, compassionate and incredibly emotionally intelligent. He made our divorce as smooth and seamless as possible and made the entire process understandable and predictable. We both felt well prepared to appear before the Commissioner, who referenced Greg's "notable standing and reputation within the community" on multiple occasions. I feel fortunate to have met Greg and that he guided me during this challenging time in my life. He made it exponentially better.

Amazingly thorough, thoughtful, and Greg’s professional reputation is outstanding in the community. Our divorce judge even said so during our divorce hearing!

Paul did a great job facilitating my divorce with a very difficult ex-husband. He remained patient and calm and anticipated the next move well. He listened to me all the time. I would highly recommend paul.

• As a business woman, experiencing the “graying divorce” paradox, I was grateful to have been referred to Susan Hansen. I had heard of the many stresses that the traditional divorce can have in exacerbating the process. The collaborative process, allowed for a focused agenda with both parties’ and their attorneys and therefore was the most effective use of time for very busy lives. • She was an advocate for examining comprehensive strategies that would work best for both parties’ futures. • She takes a holistic view, that not only addresses agreeable financial decisions, but encourages both parties to navigate decisions with dignity and respectable boundaries. • Susan, is especially savvy at recommending and collaborating with other experts, to facilitate complicated decisions for business owners. • I was very comfortable and confident that overall fairness and reasonableness was at the helm of all recommendations for the best interest of both parties.

Attorney Sue Hansen is well respected in the court room and the community. She is leader in supporting a shift from traditional adversarial divorces to collaborative and mediated divorces. Recognizing the interwoven facets of divorce and the profound influence conflict has on a family, she and her partner, Attorney Greg Hildebrand, also developed the Family Mediation Center as a resource for couples. When I found myself facing divorce 5 years ago, multiple referrals sent me to Sue. Feeling like a tornado spun through our lives, Sue’s skills, knowledge and compassion guided me through the new terrain. Most important to the process was her centered focus on the children. With her over 30 years of experience, she provided insights into short-term and the long-term considerations of decisions that needed to be made.

Sue Hansen represented me in my divorce in 2015 and 2016. She did an excellent job of handling the litigation aspects of my case. As a practicing attorney myself, I could tell that Sue has great rapport with the court and is very well respected in the legal community. However, what most impressed me was that she helped me and my ex-husband craft a marital settlement agreement that best met the needs of our two minor children. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone who is similarly concerned with reducing conflict and putting their children first during divorce.
