A+ representation for ALL

Kimberly Backman is the most qualified and professional lawyer within a 200 mile radius. I have been a benefit as a black man of her unwavering support, focus, and care through the needs of my case. If your someone who want someone to tell you the truth, advise you in real time on what is best for y...ou and your situation, and to treat you fairly and equitably, then this is the person for you! Anyone who may have left an unfavorable review is coming from a place of lack of self accountability within themselves. She will care about your family, your animals your finances and anything else you and you family will need. Her work ethic is unparalleled and I would 10 of our 10 recommend!

Highly recommended!

I cannot say enough positive things about the legal services I received from Ms. Backman. She responded to my concerns before and after business hours and moved my case forward even when my husband dragged his feet. She was understanding, compassionate, and remained calm when I was not. Highly recomm...ended!

Post-Decree Action

My ex-husband filed a post divorce decree action seeking an increase in spousal maintenance. I hired Ms. Backman, who was not my original divorce attorney, to represent me. She demonstrated a confident, knowledgable, and “go get him” approach after taking into consideration my guidance and ideas. Sh...e documented many inconsistencies and untruths in my husband’s claims and evidence that ultimately led to my ex-husband withdrawing his request. However, Kim didn’t stop there. She uncovered errors made by my original divorce attorney and successfully filed a motion to have all alimony discontinued. Slam dunk. Cannot speak more highly of Kim and her team.

Divorce/custody/child support

I highly recommend Attorney Backman! She did an amazing job helping me through my divorce! She helped to keep me focused and calm through the process and fully supported me through the worst of it! She made sure I understood the law and what I was entitled to while still allowing me to make my own de...cisions! She even responded back to me outside of business hours during an emergency situation! If you want excellence, Attorney Backman is who to call!

EXCELLENT SERVICE

I wanted to take a moment to share my positive experience working with Kimberly Backman, who recently represented me in a custody case. Kimberly is not only an outstanding lawyer but also incredibly dedicated to her clients. Throughout the process, she was always available to respond to my emails ...and provided guidance that made a significant difference for me and my kids. I appreciated how reliable she was, ensuring that I understood the steps we needed to take. An exceptional aspect of my experience was when, after my case was concluded, Kimberly waived my remaining balance, which was a tremendous relief for my family. Thanks to her efforts, my children now have a safer and brighter future, and I will always be grateful for her support. If you or someone you know requires legal assistance in family matters, I highly recommend reaching out to her.
