What Our Clients Are Saying

I have known Ron for a number of years and am humbled by his dedication to the Collaborative Practice movement. Ron is a gentle, caring individual and a true professional.

Lynda R.

Family Lawyer & Mediator at Law Office of Lynda J. Robbins

Ron is one of the founding fathers of the worldwide collaborative law movement and I have had the pleasure of meeting him on a number of occassions. Most recently we had the chance to work together in Rome, Italy when we were on the same training team bringing the world of collaborative law to the Romans. I found Ron not only to be a true gentleman but also a great communicator, insightful and wise. He handled the tircky “pitches” with aplomb and great courtesy, taking the cultural nuances in his stride. Ron is a great man.

Gillian Bishop

Owner, Family Law in Partnership

In the profession of family law, very few lawyers stand out not only as superb legal representatives, but as people who become an enormous resource for their clients. They are towers of strength and energy, individuals you turn to first for solid, thoughtful advice in troubled times. In this category, no one does it better than Ron Ousky. He sees the big picture; he understands the details. Just ask his clients!

Stevan Y.

P.C.

For all of Ron’s brilliance in connection with Collaborative Practice, and there is plenty, it is his joyful, playful, humanness that stands out for me. As a leading voice in the movement, and even more so during his time as president of the IACP, I always admired Ron’s wonderful blend of keen intelligence, tireless drive, and warm compassion. I only wish we were close enough geographically to work together with clients.

Carl Michael R.

Alternative Dispute Resolution

It is a distinct pleasure to recommend Ron Ousky. Smart, experienced, dedicated and skilled, Ron garners my unequivocal recommendation if you are considering hiring an attorney for your divorce. Ron’s interest-based negotiation skills are superior! He can relate to people in many ways and on many levels. I could continue on with more glowing accounts of Ron, but will instead simply say that I really do think the world of him and respect him greatly. I would without any reservation recommend Ron Ousky to you.

Jennifer M.

Realtor at Edina Realty

Ron is a thoughtful, experienced family law attorney and mediator. He stays focused on the goals and interests of the clients, and is able to generate creative options for settlement agreements that work both on paper, and in reality, for the parties involved.

Lynette B.

Attorney at Lynette M. Bledsaw Law Office LLC

Ron literally “wrote the book” on collaborative law. Ron is a compassionate, caring lawyer who will help his clients separate the emotion of divorce from doing what is right and in the best interest of the family long term. I have recommended Ron to many individuals over the years and will continue to do so. In this highly litigious society we need lawyers like Ron who focus first on mediating and resolving disputes

Terrie W.

Founder & President of Professional Services Marketing, LLC

Ron is a shining light in the Collaborative Practice Community both as a stellar visionary leader (Past IACP President, co-authored book with Stu Webb) and as a collaborative attorney. In my experience with Ron as “opposing counsel,” colleague and friend, he has always been congenial, thorough and effective in all that he does. Ron is committed to the highest standards of client service and a joy to work with in any role of the “Collaborative Divorce Process.”

Rebecca P.

Marriage and Family Therapist Intern

Ron is not only a visionary and leader, but also a down-to-earth, practical lawyer who truly lives his values in the every day. Ron is an old friend the first time you meet him – which means to me that he has the skills and grace to make each person feel special and heard when with him.I give him my highest recommendation as a Collaborative professional.

Kimberly F.

Lawyer/Mediator

Ron helped immensely through a difficult divorce by providing balanced advice, thoughtful listening and creative options. It’s more than 10 years later and I am very grateful to have had his thoughtful, integrity guiding in a charged and emotional time. We implemented some new legal options with great results and helped the co-parenting process to begin on legal foundations that have helped our children to feel loved, safe and not torn between their parents.

I highly recommend him as a collaborative attorney and mediator.

Ron does a fantastic job assisting divorcing couple navigate the tough road that is divorce. I have worked with several of Ron’s clients and they are all extremely happy with the process and the outcome of the “Collaborative Divorce Process.” By working through the “Collaborative Process” divorcing families are able to have a civilized divorce process that in many cases they can still be friends after the divorce is finalized.

Family Law Attorney

Ron has that kind but powerful wise-authority that can move mountains -(and which, God! I wish I could bottle because you could flog it for a fortune). He is resourced to move whichever way will achieve progress and has the insight to know how best to advance. Definitely part of the globe’s positive energy.

James P.

Collaborative Lawyer

ALL of the attributes listed above describe Ron Ousky! I have recommended him to friends many times. He is immensely intelligent, highly ethical, a creative problem solver, and collaborative law is definitely less expensive than the usual litigation methods. It is unusual when one can describe an attorney as a “healer,” but Ron has that quality. I want to apprentice with him!
