Aland Stanger Pettitt PLLC Law Firm Ogden Ut review signals at a glance

I found Ryan almost seven years ago when I was facing one of the hardest decisions of my life and needed a divorce attorney. Like many people making that call, I was overwhelmed and not in the best frame of mind. From our very first phone conversation, Ryan treated me with kindness, respect, and empathy. He listened to me as a person, not just as a case. He made time in his schedule to meet with me for a consultation and patiently explained the legal process in a way that helped me understand what to expect and made me feel less alone. Ryan is not what most people picture when they think of a lawyer. He is incredibly intelligent, thoughtful, and prepared, but also compassionate and deeply human. Throughout an extremely difficult divorce and custody battle, he fought tirelessly for me and my children. He was always prepared, an exceptional writer, and never missed a deadline. In court he was calm, professional, and respectful, but he also knew exactly when and how to speak up and advocate for my family. What truly sets Ryan apart is that he never treated my case like “just another file.” Over the past seven years he wasn’t just my lawyer—he became my biggest advocate and a dear friend. He believed in me, stood by me during some of the most difficult moments of my life, and never stopped fighting for my children. There were times when it felt like everything was falling apart and we truly believed all hope was lost. But Ryan never gave up. He stayed committed, kept fighting, and believed that the right outcome was still possible. In the end, what matters most is that we did find our way to a better outcome for my children. I will always be grateful that I found Ryan, and I truly don’t believe it was a coincidence. There are not enough words to describe what a remarkable attorney and person he is. Some attorneys handle cases. Ryan cares about people. That is makes him extraordinary. Hollie Sandberg

If you're like me and have no legal knowledge, I highly recommend the lawyers who handled my car accident case. They were honest, responsible, attentive to every detail, and above all, focused on their clients' well-being. I would choose them again and again. They helped me so much that my life changed thanks to them. God bless them always.

Aland Stanger & Pettitt are an amazing firm to work with. We have needed Ryan and Tim's services over the years, and they both treated our family with respect and understanding through all circumstances. Most recently we worked with Tim Pettitt on my brother's custody case, and he truly treated us like family. He was quick to answer any and all questions whether it was through text or email and was sure to explain everything thoroughly and with care for my brother who was struggling to figure out exactly what his next steps could be and how to handle everything properly. He was honest and upfront about all costs and made sure my brother agreed with everything prior to making any major decisions in the case. He met with us early before every court hearing and was willing to take phone calls and in person meetings when we felt they were necessary. I can't say enough good things about Tim. If you have any family law needs, he is definitely your man. Thank you, Tim, for everything!!!

I worked with Tim on some advice for my divorce. Amazing attorney and great firm!

If you need a legal teammate(s) to help navigate the tremendous difficulties of divorce and its exceedingly difficult consequences, and desire a legal team that cares about their customer and deliver results, then the BEST legal team in Utah is Tim (and Nikki). After dealing with two other lawyers in Utah that only cared about their fees, and after carefully reviewing their positive Google reviews, I hired Tim to represent my interests. Their expert legal advice, professionalism, and empathy is truly outstanding. For me, the trauma of divorce was more devastating than my toughest days personally defending our Nation overseas after 9/11. I had no one in my corner until I hired Tim and it's the best decision I made in my life (other than serving our country). He's earned not only my respect, but my eternal gratitude for his professionalism, competence, and caring. 5 Google stars all the way!!

Not in a million years I thought I would be sitting in a divorce lawyer office. But Tim was with me the whole time making me feel comfortable and like we were going to get what I needed no alimony. Thanks a lot Tim. Anyone looking for a good counsel he is it!

I unfortunately had an injury claim and had no idea how to go about it or what to do. I was frantic and I knew the financial burden would immensely impact my life. I am forever grateful for contacting Tim and his team. They guided me and were essentially at my beck and call. Their knowledge and experience really made the process a breeze. They truly care about their clients and give their undivided attention. Half way into my lawsuit, I with bad luck encountered another claim and not once was I questioned or felt like I was the problem. I coincidentally was involved in two claims in just one year. I truly couldn’t have done it without them by my side. Not only did Tim and his team go above and beyond. We also settled with a breeze and an outcome more than expected. I can’t emphasize enough, you will want him by your side when dealing with a personal injury case.

I went into this divorce process very nervous and unsure, but I was quickly put at ease after meeting with Ryan. I went in the goal of 50/50 custody, everything else was secondary (though still important). After mediation I was ready to compromise a little bit on the 50/50 just to get things over with, but Ryan wouldn't let me, because he knew how important it was to me when I first came in. I'm still so grateful for this, that he kept my goals his priority. In the end, I did get 50/50 and price of the entire process was very fair. I would recommend this firm to anyone in need.

Melissa is a top tier attorney and I highly recommend her. She is organized and professional. I was particularly impressed with her clam demeanor, command over the opposing attorney and strategic thinking ability during negotiations. At some point you are going to mediation or going in front of a judge and that is where Melissa separates herself from other attorneys I have worked with. She is someone you want on your side.

Melissa was very professional and detail oriented. Couldn’t have asked for better support and help I needed from a lawyer. I am well pleased with the outcome and how she fought for me.

I had a very difficult criminal case than came from my divorce. Was charged with a felony. Knowing that I was innocent, I hired Ryan. Ryan took my case to trial and the jury found me not guilty. Never could’ve done it without his help. Melissa also helped me through the long process of my divorce. She helped me to get what I knew I deserved as a father, which was visitation with my daughter. Very helpful and professional. I highly recommend Ryan and Melissa for your divorce or criminal case. They definitely will take care of you

Ryan stranger took care of everything in my divorce. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer and friend in this time of need. My case was difficult for my kids and I, but knowing I had Ryan on my side I was at ease. I even had a major injury in the middle of my divorce and he stepped right in to help in so many ways. I would HIGHLY recommend this firm to anyone.
