"Grace Lee and Andrew Newsom are among the best lawyers in their field. They were extremely thorough and caring about obtaining a fair and just result .... and that is exactly what i got. The communication between lawyers was perfect, hit all the marks which proved to be extremely beneficial in court. Both Grace and Andy were accessible as I needed and there was no motion or proceeding that was not handled in the upmost professional manner. I'm so pleased with the results that I've already made 2 referrals to them and its been only days since the conclusion." -A

 

"I have been working with Grace Lee for far longer than I would have liked to. However, that is not a reflection on her. She has been an incredible advocate for me and has made this process, though incredibly stressful, much less hard on me. She is sweet, funny, intelligent and do not be fooled by her appearance. While she appears young, she is highly knowledgeable and impressive to watch in court." -M.R.



"As a father of two young girls, custody was my primary concern in the settlement of my divorce. The first attorney I hired told me that, as a man, I had little chance to get custody and that I should negotiate with that in mind. I fired him. I was then referred to Grace Lee and to make a long story short I now have 50% custody with no child support or alimony payments. Grace got the results that I wanted and she did while maintaining a high ethical standard and a professional demeanor.
If you find yourself in the unfortunate situation of an impending divorce then you need to call Grace before your spouse does." -J.R.



"Normally I don't write reviews. However, this was such a good experience I had to put it out there. A year ago I was going through a tough time with child visitation and child support. I was told that because I was a guy it really didn't matter what i did, I was hosed. I was told by a lot of people that men in Oregon always get a bad deal in court. I have to say this was my second appearence in a family law courtroom on this matter. And I had already experienced those words to be true.
However, Grace Lee at Stahancyk, Kent, Johnson & hook proved that it really comes down to legal repersentation! She was amazing!!! I wish I would have used her the first time I ever went to court. She turned everything around for me. I see my son all of the time now. I actually get more time with him than we asked. His mom said, "I never want to see your attorney in a court room again." Grace doesn't look tough by anymeans, but get her in a court room and it is a totally different story. She commands the respect from Judges and other attorneys by her intellect and demeanor. From the moment we walked into court I knew i was in great hands.
She always gave me a straight forward story. Most importantly she came through for me. Everything that she said would happen, happened. Thank you Grace Lee for being my voice when I didn't have one. If you are looking for great legal repersentation, you need to call this firm. You have to ask for Grace Lee because she is the best in the business. When you first walk in to this firm you will meet Karen Wood. She is awesome and makes you feel right at home. She is part of this great team as well. If you have a problem (which you most likely won't there) just ask Karen. She knows. What a great experience! I never met Jody, but the apple can't fall that far from the tree! They have hired great people. Net/Net if you are not with this firm you are not with the A team. You are on the B team." -Anonymous
"Grace Lee is a consummate professional Family Law attorney and a compassionate human being.
I would not have survived my arduous 3.5 year divorce process without her insightful counsel, her 'call-it-like-it-is' style and her full dedication to my case.
Grace demonstrates a deep and thorough working knowledge of family law and a compassion for the emotional turmoil that you, individually, or you and your children - if you have children, as I do - will, and do, face daily before, during and after divorce.
In my case, early on - when some issues were desired to be resolved collaboratively, in mediation - Grace was flexible and offered insight and counsel on how to navigate those sessions in her absence. After multiple mediations proved fruitless, I witnessed Grace's 'cut-to-the-quick' professional skills in the deposition process. As a communications professional, I marveled at Grace's skillfull line of questioning, which so thoroughly cornered my former spouse, that it required her attorney to ask for a break to leave the room to provide her 'damage-control' counseling, on 5 separate occasions!
Grace was far more prepared and thorough than the opposing attorney. She thinks in advance and anticipates the issues like an all-pro quarterback looks at the opposition, reads the defense and then strikes in the appropriate way and at the most timely moment.
Grace's brilliant negotiation skills brought my case to the best conclusion possible - a very fair financial split and the best custody agreement possible, one designed to keep all family members here, in one city and not relocating the children outside of their hometown, as my former spouse attempts to do. Grace has taken a strong stand for my children's well-being all throughout the process.
The bottomline? Choose Grace Lee as your counsel.
Don't waste time or money. Choosing an attorney to carry you through your divorce is a profoundly important decision. Her firm, Stahncyk, Kent & Hook is by far the best in the entire region.
I feel fortunate to have had Grace Lee on my side of the table and so will you. Call her..you will be very happy you did." -Anonymous



"Grace Lee has a keen understanding of both the law and how to most effectively deal with people during difficult times. She has great tenacity in resolving conflict and separating the business of divorce from the emotions of divorce." -S.S.



 

“Well prepared, well presented, and well argued, you can’t do better than that.” - S.T.

 


“Grace, from the day I retained her, has been laser-focused on getting me through the 'muck' that has been created by my difficult ex-wife. She has done this with a sense of compassion and sensitivity that I appreciate and need during this time. I have dealt with many of the top law firms for family law, corporate liability, real estate, etc. as a corporate liability insurance specialist of 20 years but I never been so impressed with the clarity Grace possesses to get the job done.”
