I cannot recommend Ms. Ann Otteman and her team highly enough. She is an aggressive, powerful, and passionate attorney who took on my divorce case at the last minute and got me everything I wanted. She will fight relentlessly on your behalf.

From our first phone call, I knew that I had nothing to worry about. Her dedication to her clients is second to none. She fought for my rights and made sure that my voice was heard throughout the entire process. She was always available to answer any questions I had and provided me with the support and guidance that I needed during this difficult time.

I am immensely grateful to Ms. Otteman for everything she did for me, and ensuring my daughters best interest remained at the heart of every decision. Her professionalism, knowledge, and expertise are unmatched, and I am confident that she will provide the same level of care and attention to anyone in need of a family law attorney.

They are very welcoming and the atmosphere was nice. They also validate parking. The only issue was the price, a bit higher than most

Molly Turpin and the team at Greg Ryan and Associates are exceptional. Molly represented me during my request for joint physical custody and opposing my ex’s request to relocate. She is competent, she cares, she works hard and provided sage advice through 5 hearings, a Custody Evaluation, an Expert Witness’s work product review and 11 days of trial. She left no stone unturned, left nothing to chance, developed a winning strategy and despite my Daughter’s young age and my position in the military she executed in the courtroom and got it done. I am forever indebted to Molly and the team’s service. These are good people that get it and care, and I can’t recommend them strongly enough.

I contacted Greg Ryan & Associates once my amicable and civil divorce started souring and stalling. They were very responsive and transparent about the whole process. They were also very understanding and respectful about the life change I was going through. I had sent maybe two follow up emails just to ask how things were going, and they lit a fire under my ex's lawyer. Divorce isn't easy, but sometimes necessary and for the best. Glad I went with this law firm!

I have nothing but positive things to say about Greg and his team. Everyone is so professional,helpful and kind. I was feeling bottom low , nervous and confused when I asked him for help , and he gave me the voice I lost once and helped me to have better opportunities for my new life. One of my biggest concern was property I and my ex owned , Greg's team also has very strong and knowledgeable real estate agent who made everything easier for me. I highly recommend this firm for anyone who's going through hard time like I was.
Thank you Greg!

Greg is more than a lawyer. He is compassionate and caring. His calm demeanor made the process even more smooth. He is able to break down the legal terminology in a manner anyone can understand even when under stress. He is patient and thoughtful. I would highly recommend his services. His office workers are equally as kind and helpful.

Since I am taking the time to speak on behalf of my personal experience with Greg Ryan and his services, I will be certain to tell you that they have earned my upmost respect.

Professionalism at its finest. I was met with understanding, genuine concern and a balanced care for all involved.

If you are reading this review, I suggest you stop what you are doing and give them a call. It just may be the most important you could possibly make, just as it was for me.

We highly recommend Greg Ryan and Associates for your legal issues. Our son has just gone through a long and nasty divorce, and this law firm, his main lawyer, Molly, have been with him every step of the way. Their encouragement, support, and expertise are far superior to other firms I have experienced. The firm is highly professional and caring, constantly keeping the client apprised of every twist and turn along the way. In a nutshell, they are the best!
We know that our son has greatly benefitted from the confidence shown by Greg and Molly, two top attorneys. We are very grateful to them.

I went through a terrible separation and then divorce. My Ex Husband tried to take me for everything!!!! Thank God for Greg Ryan & Associate’s they were a Godsend. I interviewed numerous Attorney’s and what stood out to me was the fact Greg Ryan made me feel so comfortable and at home. Greg Ryan & Associate’s professionalism is top notch. Greg himself is an one of a kind gentleman that has the warmest smile. I would never go anywhere else for my legal needs.

I have to say that I am not big on reviews but I must share my experience with Greg Ryan. Greg helped me get through one of the toughest decisions I had to make. He was professional, honest and patient. He made me feel comfortable to ask questions and ultimately empowered me to get through this process. I HIGHLY recommend Greg Ryan!

I recommend Greg highly and without reservation. From the beginning, he was only concerned with finding an amicable resolution to our disputed issues. He constantly reminded us that our children were the priority, and that superseded the hostility and animosity my husband and I felt for each other at the time. Greg helped us refocus on our children and what was in their best interest. I cannot tell you how grateful I am for that perspective and reminder. If you are looking for a children-focused approach to your divorce, call Greg

I’d like to take the time to share my experience with Greg Ryan and associates.

Where I was lucky to have found them, I understand the stress of searching for the attorney that will be taking your fate into their hands. Choosing the right law firm to represent you can be the difference in whether you face a hopeful future or a devastating outcome. No outcome is guaranteed but the odds are in your favor when someone fights for you as if it’s themselves they are fighting for. In my case The odds did not look to be in my favor. I was forced to leave my home state of Hawaii because of my financial circumstances. I was emotionally compromised because I was facing the possibility of not having the time with my son that both my son and I needed.

I used Greg Ryan and Associates to re-open a custody case in order to obtain a more fair and reasonable visitation that would better suit my son and I. In truth, modifying an already made court order can be unpredictable and challenging. I’d like to share that my lawyer Phil Dureza was amazing! When I first met him I experienced a genuine heart and kindness. The office staff was kind and quick to keep me notified with any changes and explained everything to me with patients and care. When I witnessed Mr. Dureza fight in the courtroom, the respect I had already established for him ,,sky rocketed!! Mr. Dureza took his time in learning my case. He was never unprepared. There were embarrassing moments where my opposing party was shaming me as does happen in court. In those moments where I felt hurt or scared, Mr. Dureza was quick with his responses to defend me and made compelling arguments that went in my favor. Not once was he caught off guard by the other attorney who was fighting hard to not only shame me but take what little time I already had. My attorney faught back with a genuine heart for my son. I have never witnessed such a respectable kindness all while being reasonably aggressive. It was both an honor and privilege to wittiness him in his element. I was so grateful to have him. I believe if I had anyone else fighting for me I would not have gotten anything I was asking for. In this case I ended up with more than what I had asked for. In time my situation would have been better when my son was older and can make decisions but as everyone knows time waits for no one and time lost meant memories lost with my son. Missing this time would have been both devastating and heart breaking. Greg Ryan and Associates are the reason My son and I can look forward to being together again after an unfortunate past where divorce and prior custody circumstances had put limitations on our time. I'm an out of state parent now and Mr. Dureza made sure that did not stop my son and I from maintaining our relationship. I made this review in hopes that if someone is looking for an attorney who believes in bringing a loving parent and child or children justice and you need to know your child’s best interest is a main priority then you can use Greg Ryan & Associates. You can have confidence that they will invest not only their time but their genuine hearts. My only regret is that I didn't have them sooner. It was a privilege to have them in my Corner.

Mahalo and much Aloha to Greg Ryan and Associates!
