Petersen Law Firm PLLC

The last thing anyone wants to go through is a divorce. Riisa Peterson Mandel alleviated the stress and worry I felt when I made the decision to file for divorce. She is incredibly efficient, professional, and above all diligent in her understanding and ability to explain the legal procedures and applicable laws to her clients. She is honest and upfront about the process, the hardships, and above all, does not "sugar coat" what to expect. In such an unpredictable time, she provided clear guidance and initiative when it came to pursuing this matter in a "time is of the essence" viewpoint. Not only was Riisa Peterson Mandel was readily available, but and her staff was also very responsive and friendly. She worked faster than any other attorney said was possible! She was the perfect attorney for me, and based on her work ethic and results, I would highly recommend her to anyone who is faced with a similar situation to mine. Her compassion and empathy for me and my legal matter made me feel like she had known me for years! She is exactly the person you want advocating for you when you're forced into a legal corner. I never leave reviews but I was so blown away with Riisa Peterson Mandel and her staff at Peterson law firm. Words cannot even begin to describe how grateful and blessed I was to have Riisa Peterson Mandel represent me. Hands down one of the best attorneys I have ever worked with!

Let me begin by saying that I have utilized Riisa and her team for 3 separate court-related concerns for a period of 2 years: severance of parental rights, name changes for my children, and my divorce. Riisa and her team were meticulous and empathetic throughout. They have always kept me updated and responded to my questions/concerns promptly. As a non-attorney type, she was able to explain everything to me in simple/plain language to ensure I was never going into a situation blind or ill-informed. She has always advised me based on realistic expectations and used case law to justify such options without leading me astray. I can honestly say that Riisa and her entire team kept me grounded with their unwavering support. My wins were their wins and I am forever grateful to them. Thank you Riisa, Amanda, Robert, Jacquelynn and everyone else!

Riisa Peterson is a top notch Attorney! Not only did she go above and beyond during this pandemic, but she is always just a phone call away. Her team is very professional and made me feel that they were concerned and working toward my best interest. Her assistant Lisa was amazing and I felt like I made a friend for life! This law firm is amazing in all that they do and I thank them from the bottom of my hearts for making this chapter of my life a smooth easy beautiful transition. God Bless!

I retained Riisa Petersen and her staff in a recent legal matter. I cannot begin to explain the professionalism, tenacity, intelligence, and overall above reproach methodology she and her team have brought to the table for me in my matter. She has gone above and beyond with communication and advisement all while ensuring that she kept my budget in mind. I would recommend to anyone Riisa Petersen and let them know that if they don’t retain her, good luck. When you work with Riisa its not about luck it was about supporting you to the FULLEST extent of the law allow and thats what she does!!!! Thank you again for everything!!!!

I was feeling down, scared, and as if the court systems were designed to be against me. I spoke to plenty lawyers before hiring Riisa, and she was the one I am so glad I chose to represent me. Riisa and her staff, are very professional, and communicate like no other, every step along the way I knew what to expect. My case lasted 2 years due to covid and they were there with me along the entire way. The way Riisa spoke, and presented herself during court sessions, I knew she would either beat the case or get it dismissed, and sure enough she got my case dismissed. If you’re looking for a lawyer that brings confidence, and will fight for you look no further. Thank you Riisa!
