Katherine is a very honest, caring and hardworking attorney!

I was having so many problems with finding an honest attorney that cared about my situation and not just my money, until I found Mrs. Dare!! I had already spent a lot of money with another attorney that did nothing for me and I was overwhelmed. When I called Katherine she was very understanding and s...howed genuine concern for what I was going threw. Before she ever even spoke about money with me she listened to what I had to say and then she went above and beyond to discuss my case with the court administrator to see what options we had before she quoted me a price. Katherine is very honest and she unlike some attorneys enjoys her job. She is very on point and knows what she is talking about before she steps in the courtroom. Her prices are very reasonable! What I like the most about my experience is that when I called to talk to her she answered not some receptionist or paralegal! You get to talk directly to her, it makes you feel more secure going into the courtroom! Mrs. Dare worked so hard on my case and has helped me get to a place in life I have dreamed of for years!! I highly recommend her!!!!

Avvo Rating

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.
