Allen Fischer PLLC

We needed a really good attorney for an Emergency Guardianship case involving two young children. These children had been repeatedly placed in and out of our care for four years. We had already adopted one of their half siblings 9 years ago. We hired Dena Allen. I could write a novel about this case and amount of time and quality work Dena and her staff put in for us. Our case went on for nearly one year with many twists and turns. It was very complicated. In the end we were granted Guardianship of the children until their 18th Birthdays. Thank God. My “big family” will always be so grateful for Dena Allen and her Staff. We couldn’t have accomplished this without them. I recommend Dena Allen to everyone!! If you’re serious about hiring a highly qualified Attorney who goes above and beyond for you please call Dena Allen.

I had spoken with 5 other attorneys before choosing Matt to represent me. Having had a stressful challenge with an international custody battle involving two young children, Matt took time to fully understood my case and situation . He has a very calm demeanor, is thorough with family law and represented my case with expertise in the courtroom. I felt like he also did his best with time management between himself and his paralegal Jaymie, to keep costs as low as possible. I am very pleased with the representation and the professionalism of Matt and his staff during this difficult time.

During the hardest and most emotionally challenging time of my life, Matt and his team were my voice of reason and expertise, and led me well through the entire process. They are people of high integrity, complete honesty, compassion and a wealth of knowledge and experience. I would absolutely trust Matt and his team with any legal matter, and am so grateful they were my legal and personal representation!

lady was extremely rude and dismissive. unacceptable

I cannot, in good conscience, recommend Dena Allen as a mediator. During our session, she referenced a photo my ex supposedly had of a garage sale sign in front of my house and questioned why I hadn’t given my ex half the proceeds. I explained that no such garage sale had ever occurred. Her response was, “I saw the picture.” When I asked if she had reviewed the metadata to verify the date and location of the photo, she admitted she had not. I offered to provide written statements from my neighbors confirming that no garage sale had taken place, but she just looked at me with visible disdain. It was clear she had already made a judgment based solely on a photo presented by my ex. Despite my attorney requesting the original photo, my ex never submitted it. It was proof that the meta-data couldn’t show when it taken or when. Nevertheless, the mediator chose to take it at face value, without requiring any verification. Mediators are expected to remain impartial and fact-driven. Unfortunately, that was not my experience.

Hands down this is one of the best lawyers i have ever dealt with. I am prior law enforcement and family court was terrifying to think about. Robin Schmahl has been a life saver for us. My husband's ex is very abusive and we had multiple issues with cps and mental health issues with mom. Robin was able to deal with everything including communicating with the mother for us! Its not common for a father to get full custody but Robin helped us show that his ex is mentally ill. Its been five years since the court said she had to get a mental health evaluation or lose the kids. She still has not gotten the evaluation but constantly threatens us. Robin is always there to help! We do not know what we would do without her!

Great company to work with. One of their attorneys Evan Dobbs was outstanding. He was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. I can not recommend him enough if you are looking for a hard working great attorney.

This was a horrible experience to say the least. My situation was messy and the outcome was not guaranteed by any means but the service we received was awful. I was extremely detailed in my first phone call to the office but apparently the reception didn’t relay that info because when we met Dena Allen she had no idea why we were sitting in the office, clearly she was not given any of my intake information. Cut to no communication and constant emailing to make sure we were on the same page. All of which we were charged for. I expect more for my money and this was a complete waste of time and funds for our cause.

I cannot recommend Evan Dobbs enough. He was so incredibly helpful during my divorce. He was compassionate, driven, and extremely professional. I have recommended him before and will always recommend him.

Robin Schmahl is amazing. She thoroughly understands the legal aspects, as well as understanding how to guide you, the parent, through the process. Knowledgeable of the law, detail oriented, with a warm personality to guide you, what else could you ask for? If you want peace of mind, choose Robin.
