When I first reached out to Ms Allen I had know idea what I was going to do in my situation. But after just my first consultation she had a plan and she worked that plan through my whole case with compassion and respect. Answered my calls emails and always made sure she kept me up to task on what was going on. She is a awesome attorney. I have yet to get the results of my custody proceedings but I’m sure I will be please with the results . Words could never explain how good she is you will really have to see her in actions. Just trust me when I say you want This Queen of the courts fighting on your side if you really want results. In the end I start with a great attorney and ended up with a great friend in the end.
When I first came to Mrs. Allen I was really scared. I knew I had to leave my husband for myself and my children but we had been married for 16 years I didn't think I could make it on my income alone. Mrs. Allen led me out of my bad situation and showed me I could make it on my own. Rebuilding is still difficult - but my children and I can now breathe and come home to a happy home. I can't thank her enough.

Highly Recommend Very Experienced and Honest Attorney
I was grieving, angry and in shock when I first met with Kimberly Allen for a divorce of a 29 year marriage. I found her to be informative, understanding and compassionate. I felt supported and gently guided throughout the whole process. The other side, delayed and stalled but her patience and persistence got me through. I realized, afterwards, that the final alimony awarded was exactly what she had quoted me at our initial meeting. I am extremely grateful to her and would highly recommend her services. Thank you

ONE HAPPY DAD
Everyone told me I had no chance of ever being more than a part time parent. My wife had always been home full time with our three children.
I hired Kimberly Allen. It was a tough battle, but thanks to her, I now have my children half the time.
Words cannot express my gratitude-

Very positive experience
Kimberly provided compassionate representation, never ending support and was a constant advocate for me. I always felt that Kimberly understood where I was coming from and always had my best interests at heart. She was able to take an unfortunate end to 29 years of marriage and make it bearable.

Made a diffult situation bearable
Kimberly was hired to do a separation agreement for a 39 year marriage... Upsetting to say the least but she made it as easy as possible. Explained everything that I was entitled to, all options available to me, and exactly what to expect. Very responsive and even got all the papers together to change the title information on the house.

In the end, I was extremely pleased with the results. I highly recommend her.

Intelligent, Trustworthy and Responsive
I hired Kimberly to represent me in a divorce on the advice of a friend who was also very happy with her services. I could not have been happier with her representation. She was always respectful of my concerns and took all the time I needed to understand the process and the strengths and weaknesses of my case. She was very understanding and compassionate as to the emotional impact of everything - in particular the custody issues. I would highly recommend her to anyone unsure of what steps to take and who needs skilled, patient and compassionate representation.
