Emily A. Szczepkowski is rude and unprofessional. She is unable to answer basic questions with appropriate responses. Please seek counsel elsewhere.

Valerie Hartup

Excellent Law firm. Highly professional and have a heart for their clients. Highly recommend. Perry, Mike, and the rest of the staff treats their clients like family. They know the law inside and out.

Mike was great to work with. He helped my family in many ways thru the difficult time. He was knowledgeable and very straight forward to things that I wanted, but were not most likely going to happen. i was very comfortable going into the court with Mike when in the past I was scared going into it with different attorney. I highly recommend Mike!

Mike represented me in a post dissolution matter this year in 2020. Mike gave me good advice, kept me informed at all times, and was extremely responsive to all communications.

Sarah Irish

Perry and Emily did a phenomenal job helping with my divorce case. They were both very responsive to emails and communicated effectively throughout the whole process. Thanks to their excellent work, my case was completed in a timely manner.

My experience with Shilts and Setlak, LLC was extremely personal and professional. No one wants to have to hire a lawyer but if you are in need, I highly recommend this firm. Emails were responded to within minutes/hours at the latest. And when it came time for payment they worked with me to figure out a fair and reasonable time frame. Perry Shilts didn't treat me like a number, he treated my like a client. I am grateful for the work they did for me and will have zero hesitation in hiring them again if/when needed.

Heather McClain

5/5 stars would recommend Mike Setlak. 0/5 stars, can't recommend the ex. All jokes aside, I was very happy with Mr. Setlak, he was quick to respond to my messages and assisted me through a challenging time. Unfortunately it's likely I'll be retaining his services in the future, but I know he's quite reputable.

The attorneys and staff at Shilt's and Setlack are very easy to work with. They are extremely busy yet reachable, work hard, yet are personable. If I have a question about my case, my lawyer promptly responds. I would highly recommend them to anybody looking for a family law attorney.

I highly recommend Ashley Gamble for if you are needing an divorce attorney. In the middle of my almost divorce, I came to Ashley and hired her to divorce my husband. She explained everything step-by-step to me on how it all works, the length process, what possible outcomes to everything, and so forth. I actually ended up reconciling with my husband and ended up pulling everything. Best decision I ever made, but I am thankful the person I chose to hire for the process that I didn't go through with, was the best one. Ashley is very professional, direct, friendly, and caring. If I ever need to refer anyone to a divorce attorney, I would be pointing my directions to her. I recommend her for sure! Thank you, Ashley!

DONITA KNEPPER

There are not enough positive words to describe the experience I had. Perry and Gretel went above and beyond when handling my divorce case. There was never a moment when I struggled to get a response from either one, they were always available. They took pride in my case as if I was one of their own. I did not only receive legal guidance and advice, but also honest and heart felt advice.

James Turnbull

Sends threatening letters to individuals just because they happen to have the same name as one of their clients.

Danielle Fox

Mike was referred to me by a friend who used him many years ago. She said her experience with him was great. I would say no different. Mike handled my 2019 divorce case like a professtional. I, of course, had many questions and he answered them with ease. He assisted with different scenarios of questions I had, etc. He gave me knowledgable advise and kept me informed every step of the way. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing assistance with family law matters!!

Emily was so understanding and patience with me while helping me though my post - dissolution matter back in 2018-2019. I could not have asked for a better attorney, she gave me great advice and counsel. She is truly passionate about her job and the individuals she represents.

karen finet

Perry Shilts provided immediate advice and help. The secretary connected me to Mr. Shilts within minutes of my call and was very kind. The prompt attention with contact information for follow up appointments was very much appreciated. Kindness and time for their clients, qualities not found these days! I will recommend to everyone this law firm's services.

Mike Setlak represented me in a post-dissolution matter in 2017. He gave good advice, kept me informed, he worked HARD for me, all at a reasonable cost. I would recommend him to anyone.

Jenn Haviland

Finding a great lawyer is a difficult decision. I hit the jackpot when I found Emily. She represented me in a paternity case in 2019. She was very knowledgeable, gave good advice and kept me informed. I can definitely recommend her.

Can not say enough good things. I highly recommend them and urge you to contact them first to avoid the stressful search for an attorney you can trust. They are always available, very responsive, professional, compassionate, and care for you as an individual. Always felt like I got more than what I paid for.

Blake Patterson

I recently had to go through one of the most difficult times in my life as my wife and I separated. Mr. Setlak was incredible the entire time. He knew what was important to me and our goals were achieved through his efforts with minimal expense. I highly recommend.

Elisha Ramer

Perry and his compassionate team of associates really go the extra mile! I am thoroughly impressed with how responsive and understanding they were regarding my case. Perry’s firm was also willing to work with my situation to find solutions and although at this time we are at a standstill with my case, I know they still have my back and we will work together again in the future to fully resolve my matters when the time is right. If you are looking for a team that will be dedicated, compassionate and hardworking, look no further! 5/5 all the way!

Kelly Monahan

Mike and the whole staff are very helpful and responsive. Definitely recommend their services!

Perry is/has represented me in 4 court actions. I felt like he was very prepared and knew what was important to me (not just doing another cookie cutter divorce case). He tailored our requests to my priorities and he was honest when something would be a loser (preparing his client for middle ground). The first court action was successfully mediated out and, in that mediation, he came prepared with a document that ultimately was accepted with a few revisions (the document had my priorities in it). He knew how to negotiate through mediation and used our time when the mediator was in the other room to work on upcoming court items and other things (using my dollars well). I had a very difficult ex-spouse and told him that everything would need to be spelled out or she would try me on every last detail. He did just that and that document has saved me countless fights over 8 years as she attempted to try me on this or that (and I even sent him an email last year on how a weird scenario came up and he'd covered it in the document so that there was no ongoing back and forth fighting (and my appreciation of such)). There was court action prior to the mediation in that case and (while I know that Perry doesn't walk on water/isn't perfect) we won 7 out of 7 questions before the court. The second court action was not mediated out (and of no fault of Perry's as the other side was very difficult and asking for the moon and stars). For court, Perry was up for the task, knew where the other side may go and was prepared for that as well. While I understand that he cannot anticipate every turn, I felt very confident in his representation at all times and felt like he was on point. I've worked with many attorneys, and Perry's work product and attention to detail in submissions to court and legal documents/agreements is the best I've seen. A third court action was very simple because of a pre-nuptial that he drafted. A fourth court action is ongoing and has many intricacies, and he's again up to the challenge. I would highly recommend him and his staff (and have personally on 4 occasions thus far).

Mike was great and took excellent care of me. He worked quickly and efficiently, and his whole team was easy to work with and were very professional.

dervisa sabic

I have called this office two times, stopped by, never got any help, and all I wanted to know was if they could take my case on.

Elliot Fritz

Katherine Ridenour was extremely aggressively rude towards me being a potential client. Was there for a consultation which cost $75 for a mere 30 minutes. She never even bothered looking @ any of my evidence for my case. Would never recommend her as an attorney for a father trying to do what's best for his child.

Jessica Glassburn

Excellent family law practice.

erica worrell

Perry and staff were knowledgeable and extremely helpful. Perry was patient and understanding-even answering emails on a Saturday to resolve issues and move to a quick resolution.

Troy Gunder

Very pleased with this law firm and the representation I received from Katherine Ridenour. I felt immediate confidence with her upfront/honest attitude and knowledge of the law. Katherine is very competent and one that you want on your side.

Dawn Neumann

Mike was my attorney and was extremely professional, helpful and reassuring throughout this difficult process. His staff was also very thorough and professional. I highly recommend Mike Setlak. Thank you for your gentle understanding and guidance. Dawn Neuman

Karen Spitler

Mike and his team always responded to my questions and kept me informed of any progress. They were understanding and supportive through a time filled with lots of emotion.

Andrea Neal

Mike represented me in a post-dissolution matter in 2021. Mike listened to my needs, gave good advice, was knowledgeable, fair, and professional. I would recommend Mike for any similar family matters.
