Great Lawyer on Cape Cod

Kate was our attorney for a real estate sale on Cape Cod. She and her team (paralegal Kim) are wonderful to work with. Kate was very attentive to our situation, solved problems we needed negotiated, and met our closing date with no problems. I would recommend Kate and would use her again in the f...uture.

Great

Kate Mitchell was exactly the right lawyer for us in updating our wills and medical directives. We felt comfortable with her right away; this was important to us for this particular set of tasks. She listened carefully as we described not just our wishes but our unique family and financial situation,... and recommended an approach that we had not initially considered but was absolutely the best path. We are very pleased with the result!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
