Kimberly M. Ferrier

I met with Ms. Ferrier and let her know what my situation was. She was very reassuring at first and gave me a ‘flat fee’ that she said she charged whether a divorce was uncontested or not. Once I had been filed against I paid her the fee and assumed that she was going to begin working for me. From... day one, the entire thing was just her responding to the other party. She let the other attorney run the show. When I tried to call or sent emails with documentation, response was very slow or not at all. Her office staff was very unprofessional and looked like they had been hired off the drug offender list. Long after the process started she had not asked for any discovery from the other attorney and I finally asked to see her so I could get an idea of what was going on she let me vent about the situation then charged me and still didn’t clarify what the plan was. I had concrete evidence that my ex was attempting to hide assets and she blew it off and never followed up. The situation dragged on and I started getting bills for more money and we hadn’t even done anything yet. I had begun to look for another attorney and was willing to spend more money and I had to threaten to fire her in order to get any concrete answers out of her and then my ex and I figured out our property division on our own so we basically did her job for her, although had she done her job right from the beginning I would probably have gotten quite a bit more. In the end I would have spent more trying to get another attorney and time in court. She also never did the paperwork to change my name even though I asked her to do so from the beginning. I did not feel that she represented my interests at all or that she was working for me and was considering making a complaint against her. She caused me more stress and distress than the actual divorce which should NEVER be the case.

I was in a scary situation and needed a divorce and child custody taken care of. She seemed knowledgeable enough, so I paid the fee. Her office staff was incredibly rude, unprofessional, and most of the time had no clue about anything concerning my case when I would call. Instead, I had to physically... come in for answers. She changed out office staff (completely) 2 or 3 times while I was her client, so that increased the confusion. At one point, I called to ask a question, and they said (1) I had court the next day, but they forgot to tell me, and (2) that they had told Ms. Ferrier that I had reconciled with my ex, which I have no idea where that came from. I had to drop everything and get to court the next morning to find her and tell her myself that this was some mistake. She often took vacations and would put off paperwork, unless I showed up and did it myself, and she told me to call her staff while she was gone and tell them to do their job, finish my paperwork, or I would call her cell phone (which was an empty threat, since I didn't have her number), but I did not do that, because I did not feel comfortable. When the year separation was up, and my divorce was finally allowed to be proceeded with, I paid the fee again. There was no additional things done, she did not extra work, in fact she did less because I ended up mediating with my ex and ending the whole thing with a signature. In fact, when it came to the mediation, and custody agreement, being someone who is extremely unfamiliar with type of situation, I asked for her help in writing it up, (What are the states usual visitation, depending on age, etc) and she said "Whatever you want, there is no normal," and that's all she would give me. Unfortunately, right after it was finalized, I got a bill for $98. I didn't ask for anything extra, extra time, extra work, extra anything. I called and asked what it was for, and cannot get a response, and now, a year later, I have received a bill that says I owe her over $300, (for what??) and they will sue in a week. Throughout the course of that year of having her as my attorney, I was told countless times that I should do something about her being unprofessional, however, it was hard enough getting anything done, and I was on a time constraint, and I was afraid of complaining and then her not getting anything done at all. Please do NOT waste your money. Don't make the same mistake I made. I am not stuck with an incredibly vague custody agreement, and a huge bill for nothing.

I hired Mrs.Ferrier almost a year ago for custody of my son it was a long hard process and mrs.ferrier helped me with everything from child support, custody, and absolute divorce. She was very knowledgable and knew exactly what needed to be done. She helped me with my situation going above and beyond... to make sure everything was completed fast, quick, and right. When I called 90% of the time she answered if she didn't i would get a call no later then about 2 hours after I contacted her. I definitely recommend her to anyone in the military, she knows all the rules and dosent let anything negative effect her clients. It can be a time consuming process but in the end I owe everything to her for fighting for the most important person in my life, my son thank you Kimberly.

I hired Kimberly after I got Child support papers served against me. The support I was being charged was not right because of how often I actually had my children. Kimberly got my support reduced and helped straighten out my Custudy. I don't know what I would of done without her! I would strongly rec...ommend Her!

My wife and I met with Kimberly Ferrier last year to speak about seeking custody of my child, in which my wife has cared for as her own. Speaking to Kimberly for the first time you just get a sense that she is passionate about her job and truly cares for her clients. We attained her that day. Any que...stions or concerns were quickly answered by her staff or herself thru ought the last year. With court approaching, Kimberly told me everything she needed, which we provided to her. She picked up on things that I wouldn't have thought to be a big deal and showed me that even the smallest things matter. While in court, she payed close attention to all witnesses and picked up on little differences in testimonies. It was this attention and care that won my case. After a half a day in court I walked out knowing that there would be no problems taking my child when we move with with my wife's job and that he will remain in our loving nurturing environment. I can't imagine the heartbreak we would be feeling today had we not found such an amazing, caring lawyer that truly fought for what is right. If anything problems arise in the future I would seek council from her again. I would also recommend anyone to her and her practice.
