Experienced, Dependable and Understanding

Kelly Kilroy represented me in filing for full physical custody of my two children. She was extremely helpful in explaining the process to me. This was a very difficult time for me and there was an urgency in getting custody of the kids. Kelly was on top of everything and kept me informed of where... things were in the custody case. She provided relief, as I no longer had to communicate with the defendant regarding matters leading up to the court case. I did recieved full physical custody of my children and I have Kelly to thank for this. I have already recommended her services to others for family court matters and I will continue to do so in the future. I feel so lucky to have such a professional, experienced and caring lawyer on my side.

Five Star Family Law Attorney

I was looking for an attorney to help me with my child custody case and I am thankful that I found Kelly. Kelly is very professional, very responsive and always keeps you informed. She helped keep my sanity through a very difficult time.

Exceptional Family Law and MVA Attorney

Ms. Kilroy has represented me in both Family Law and MVA issues over a period of time; this includes divorce, custody/visitation, child support, and MVA issues in Baltimore and Howard Counties. In each case she has proven that her extensive knowledge of Family Law and MVA nuances were instrumental i...n reaching the best possible outcome for me. Ms. Kilroy is a strategic attorney who skillfully navigates the legal system.

DO NOT RECOMMEND

Stay away! I would not recommend Kelly to anyone looking for representation in a divorce case...especially in Howard County MD and most of all...if you are a father looking for fairness in the courtroom. Her website states, "Obtaining Fathers' Rights, Dedicated Representation Since 1985" which is to...tally incorrect in my opinion, its an easy hook to advertise the fact that a father will be looked out for from her or in the Howard County court system writ large...its just an easy way to take your money based on a proven fact that there is bias against fathers engaged in divorce cases throughout Howard County. Don't be fooled, she is not for you!
