Ruth is simply amazing! She allowed me to guide my divorce process in a way that I was comfortable with, rather than dictating what I do, although I recommend to simply listen to her! Ruth is a kind and patient person, with a passion for helping her clients, and the results of my case definitely illustrate that.

Ruth Vernier is amazing! She gave me the outcome I was seeking and took my case seriously. She had my child’s best interest at heart and I will be the first to say Ruth is an amazing woman, mom, and attorney. I trust her with everything and she handled my situation with grace and compassion. She truly cares about the best interest of your children and is dedicated to keeping your family safe. Ruth Vernier is by far the best family law attorney in the area. In my opinion, she is not considered “budget friendly” but it is true that you get what you pay for and she is worth every penny! Everyone in her office is friendly; the paralegals, attorneys and the finance manager. If anyone ever needs a recommendation for a family law attorney, I give them Ruth’s information. Tara, Brooke and Chase were so helpful and got us to the finish line within a year timeframe. They are very professional and knowledgeable in law. Thank you for everything Ruth & team.

Ruth is an amazing attorney. She took my extremely complicated custody case after 3 years of going nowhere with another attorney. All issues were resolved within months and she gave my children the peace and protection that they deserve. I only wish she would have been my attorney during my divorce!

Ruth is very knowledgeable and advised me of multiple and great options pertaining to my case upon my first meeting with her. She is very understanding and showed great compassion for my situation. We both decided Tenille would be perfect for handling my case and she was and Tenille went above and beyond in regards to working with me. I would highly recommend Vernier & Associates to anyone in need of an attorney!

From the moment I walked into Vernier & Associates it was a very welcoming environment and the front office staff was very helpful. Unlike many law firms they were highly efficient with communication which was very important to us. Their office staff was friendly, helpful and understood our needs. Our lawyer was very thorough and continued to review our documents through out the case from the opposing counsel to ensure they were correct and met our needs. High quality service and they had the best interest of our case in mind.

A topnotch lawyer and Firm It was a pleasure working with Vernier and Associates. The entire staff is very professional, thorough, knowledgeable, courteous, caring, and have the depth and breath of knowledge and experience to ensure the client receives a fair, just, and precise agreement that is complete and without any loose ends. Tenille was always on point, she knew my case, the specifics, the goals, and did not get things mixed up with other cases she had on her platter. The communication with her, Denise, and Shannon was always kind, clear, and concise … and if I had any questions, they would ensure they were fully answered prior to ending any conversation either over the phone, in person, or email. Vernier and Associates is not the least expensive firm out there …. But always remember … you get what you pay for and I am totally satisfied with the Firm and their exceptional associates that always exceeded expectations.
