Sandy was helpful, assertive and on my side. She is a phenomenal child custody attorney. Sandy is knowledgeable about new tax laws that impact things like spousal support and child custody. Having Sandy as my attorney gave me peace of mind. She is EXCELLENT!
Sandra Henson Kinney's Lawyer Endorsements
"Sandy is a role model of mine. She was there when I first started practicing and several years thereafter, as a coworker, and she continues to be a mentor. She treats her clients with sincere compassion. She is strong in a way that would make a client happy to have her there. She prepares her cases very welI. I’ve been practing family law myself for four-plus years. Having representation in these matters is important, and I would pick Ms. Kinney as my attorney if I had a family-law issue. I was named the 2018 young attorney of the year, and believe Ms. Kinney is an amazing attorney."
