“When I came to Amy her law partner described her as ‘smart and ethical.’ To that, now, I would have to add some additional things. First, she has a spirit of fun that was really nice to have along the way. It extends from her sense of humor to her love of ‘artsy and weird.’ Most important, though, I would add that she has a genuine spirit of humanness. She helped me stay (get back) on an even keel and do the right thing that I really wanted to do all along. With her straightforward tact and sympathetic understanding and knowledge she was able to ease my ‘scares’ and concerns. She displayed humor, honesty, dignity, humility and compassion during the whole ordeal. Once again my most sincere thanks and I thank Amy for being a ‘friend’ through it all. She beautifully handled my case not once but twice and is now my dear friend. I will forever cherish our friendship.” - Debbie
"We have been really impressed with how fast and efficient Amy is with getting our adoption hearings scheduled and finalized. It is clear that she makes her clients a priority and knows how important our Adoption Days have been to our family!” ~Jake Skurdal
"In the spring of 2024 I once again found myself calling upon Amy to kindly hold my hand through a divorce - one that I never saw coming. This moment was traumatic for me, but Amy made it one of the easiest legal processes I have ever experienced. Everything was under control in the incredibly capable hands of her and the staff of the Law Shop. I cannot recommend The Law Shop highly enough - frankly there aren't words that match the gratitude and love I have for everyone who works there. If you want to feel cared for, heard, and valued then this is very much the place for you. The Law Shop understands that you exist outside of what has happened to you in your life, and will help you to navigate the situation in order to get you to the other side."

I was very nervous and in foreign territory when looking for a divorce lawyer, but when I stepped into The Law Shop and met with Andrea, I felt immediately at ease. I didn't need to spend thousands of dollars for my divorce, they offered a documents only/flat rate option which is all I needed. Andrea took great care of me throughout the whole process and I felt like a priority. In the end, what I thought was going to be a nightmare, was a great experience. I would recommend The Law Shop to anyone going through a divorce. - Allie
