Micheal Paulson quoted my sister and I at $4,000 to handle our dad’s estate after our dad passed away. He had all of the information he needed to give us a proper quote and nothing ever changed along the way. It took him 9 months to complete the estate. It was a simple estate. In the end Mr Paulson sent us a bill for $7,300 without any communication along the way that the fee had changed and without any explanation of why his fee increased. After many emails back and forth about this he finally sent us a list of his fees that were completely not agreeable and lacked any sense. We don’t believe

I was treated in a respectful, professional, and helpful manner while having power of attorney documents prepared for my grandmother. Michael took as much time as I needed to answer all of my questions and concerns. He made a stressful time a little easier, which I greatly appreciated. His office staff were friendly and courteous as well. I would highly recommend him.

Michael Paulson has been an trusted ally for me as the personal representative for a family member's estate. I had no experience in this role and Michael walked me through every step. It's been nearly two years, but everything has gone as Michael predicted. I feel fortunate to have the wise counsel and advice through this process.

We have worked with Mr. Fideler for several years and have been very pleased with his sound legal advice and very timely response to time sensitive issues. We highly recommend the law firm Christopherson, Anderson, Paulson & Fideler, LLP based on many years of working with them on an almost weekly basis.

When I needed someone to protect me, Michael was there. 10 years ago when I was 23 years old, I found myself in a very serious head on collision while riding my motorcycle. The injuries sustained left me with life altering repercussions that included physical, financial and emotional damage. – Michael provided more than general council. He provided wisdom, understanding and support. He understood the long-term ramifications of the accident I had been involved in. – He proactively defended and communicated on my behalf delivering a settlement that resolved the situation in the present and long

Didn't return my call promptly, rude when Ms. Jan Olsen called back. Didn't even hear my full story and cut me off and said they cannot help. LOL Never even got a chance to tell them what I needed help with. Taking my business elsewhere.
