"She kept me informed by responding quickly to the multitude of questions I presented her. Her patience, drive and attention to detail kept me and my case on course."

Kathleen and her team at Ryder and Phelps provided stability during one of the most turbulent times of my life. I always felt like I had the most intelligent, hardest working and toughest advocates on my side. Kathleen’s straight forward narrative kept me grounded even when my emotions wanted to fly. She kept me focused on the things that really mattered and the appropriate ways to achieve the outcome we wanted. I cannot thank her enough for the way she guided and represented me through the process.
Melissa was always there when I needed assistance. At times I lost focus, but she never did. She kept me informed by responding quickly to the multitude of questions I presented her. Her patience, drive and attention to detail kept me and my case on course.
My case was handled during the pandemic as the court system was in a constant state of flux. As the courts navigated this uncharted territory my case never got lost. It always seemed that my case was the only case the courts were handling.
A few of my friends have asked me for advice on how I handled my divorce. I simply say " I didn't handle it. Kathleen Ryder and her team at Ryder and Phelps did and here's where you can find them.”

"He didn't milk it, he wanted the most immediate solution, as did i saving lots of time and money. He's a very personable guy, who just likes to get things done for his clients and he does that effectively."

The time had come. After paying Child Support for 11 years, circumstances had changed. So upon a friends advice, I hired Jordan to finally close the Child Support chapter of my life. Upon first talking to Jordan I knew rather quickly that this isn't some pompous attorney who speaks from above down to you because the law is too complex for us simple folk to understand. No no, Jordan heard me out and understood where I was coming from. He knew the circumstances that had changed were in our favor. He didn't milk it, he wanted the most immediate solution, as did i saving lots of time and money. He's a very personable guy, who just likes to get things done for his clients and he does that effectively. I would recommend him to anyone that I know having to deal with Divorce related matters and the courts.

I really can't say how lucky I feel to have worked with Kathleen and her team. This was an extremely difficult and emotional time and I could not have got through it without her guidance and honest advice. She was there for me every step of the way, answered calls and emails at all hours of the night and day to make me feel better. We ended up with the best possible outcome because of her hard work and experience. Her entire team was extremely professional and responsive and great to work with as well. Can not recommend them more.

"they will stand behind you 100% , till it's over"

I was referred to Ryder and Phelps from a family member who was exceptionally pleased with their services. There are some of us who feel that our divorce was the worst one ever, including myself. I was represented by attorney Jordan Phelps who stood by and guided me through a horrible, one-sided, mudslinging, mean spirited, untruthful, and vitriolic filled three years. Some of which was directed towards him from opposing counsel. Despite all of this, he remained professional, kept focused on just the facts and didn't get roped into engaging in such unprofessional behavior. If you want someone who will constantly let you know that he's in your corner, then he's the attorney you want. Along with his expertise in family law, he is a very personable and likable man and will meet you where you are at, though this difficult time. The office staff, Matthew and Meredith are always on top of things and help tremendously throughout the process. I truly can't say enough about how they will stand behind you 100% , till it's over.

"10/10 would recommend Ryder and Phelps!"

I was strongly urged by a family member to talk to Jordan about representing me in my family case. After our consultation I instantly knew Jordan was the right person for the job. Right off the bat he was very thorough with gathering information and making sure he had all the facts he needed and then more. He listened to me and my needs, but more importantly he did everything he could to put my Son first. Jordan maintains great relationships with his clients and also his co-workers to create a seemingly painful process PAINLESS. I waited years to hire an attorney for this process and I wish I made the decision to hire Jordan sooner. 10/10 would recommend Ryder and Phelps!

"It was a pleasure working with Jordan and the firm"

It was a pleasure working with Jordan and the firm, including Matthew & Meredith, through a very long and unpleasant divorce and child support experience. This man has the patience of a saint and is extremely professional in dealing with a very belligerent, indifferent and lackadaisical opposing counsel who prolonged and stretched things out so much longer than necessary. At the same time Jordan was very knowledgeable, down-to-earth and personable with me. He really put me at ease through this whole situation and took the time to hear me and really listen to what I hoped to achieve and worked with me to make that happen. I hope to never need his services again but I wouldn't hesitate for a second to call him if needed and I highly recommend him and the firm to anyone who finds themselves in my former predicament.
