Posted by Dave | December 30, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Uncontested Divorce

Slept Soundly Because They Had My Back

Bottom Line Up Front: Liz & H&K / North Metro exceeded all my expectations and kept costs in check during my uncontested divorce. I'd trust my friends and family with Lizz. How I Found Them: I was referred to Lizz by a friend of mine, who had a much nastier and more complicated divorce battle tha...n me. I figured if she could handle my friend's case, then she could handle mine. The friend and I both were looking for someone who could keep costs reasonable, offer sound legal guidance while guiding us through the process, and deliver results on-time. And they delivered - as promised I was truly impressed with how responsive and genuine Lizz and everyone at the firm was throughout all communication and handling of my case. I was lucky that my case remained uncontested, but there were moments when I thought it might get ugly, and they prepared me accordingly. If it went that way, it helped to know that they'd be ready to respond quickly and have my back.

Lizz is awesome!

Lizz and her team worked tirelessly to ensure my legal rights were protected during my divorce and resulting child custody battle. One year later my life is better because the attorneys worked diligently to defend me against the other side making baseless accusations. The rest of the team including K...im and Ali helped to make sure all I understood all of the details along the way. My situation was very complex including false allegations and a difficult judge; it was a very emotional process for me because I had been a work at home mom and my ex was being unreasonable about parenting time and finances. Neither Lizz nor anyone on her team would let that happen and fought hard for my children every step of the way. In the end, without any evidence I still kept joint custody of my kids despite all of the abuse and false allegations from the opposing party. Anyone facing a difficult situation like I was in should call Hait & Khun immediately.

Contested Divorce

I was not referred to a practice. They were never mentioned to me when I asked my coworkers/family. I did though, see many reviews about how great they were in court with these types of cases, and it seemed that they could not be matched. All of the reviews were right. They were very professional, b...ut kind all at the same time. My case was very emotional to me, because the father of my child kept her away from me. They were prompt with communicating back and forth, even when speaking with my ex's attorney. I sat on Liz's left side in that court room and have never been more proud of women today. She stood up and laid that hammer down hard, but professionally. I am very appreciative in all of there hard work and effort. I will be recommending her and her law firm to anyone I know that needs legal advice and assistance.

Divorce and family law

After meeting Elizabeth Kuhn on my fifth attorney consultation, I left feeling encouraged and ultimately retained North Metro Litigators for my divorce proceedings. From that point forward, they continually spoke in terms of “us” and “we” in our conversations making me feel that I was not working th...rough this on my own, but that I had a team, and that I was more a friend than just a client. I was impressed that Elizabeth remembered not only the details of my case, but the details of my personal life and continued to express interest and care for my daughters throughout the process. Through the temporary hearings, depositions and mediation, regardless of whether I was working with Elizabeth, Alex or Irene, I was at no time in doubt of their full control of the situation. Throughout every aspect of my divorce, I felt like their unique insight and ability to navigate the intricate processes, helped my case move quickly. I would also like to acknowledge one of the many wonderful office paralegals, Ali Williams, who always offered not only office assistance, but much appreciated empathy and kindness in a less than desirable situation. I would highly recommend North Metro Litigators to anyone who finds themselves in need of any type of legal counsel. Jason

Accident/Injury

YES, you need to hire Hait & Kuhn right now! I was injured in a car accident and as a highly educated individual, I thought I would be able to handle taking on the insurance company and get the treatment I needed to recover on my own, after all I wasn’t at fault. Less than two days later I was so... overwhelmed I called Hait & Kuhn. From the second I hired the firm, a huge burden was lifted off my chest. The entire staff is knowledgeable, versatile, compassionate, dedicated, and determined. Elizabeth Kuhn and Dee Dee’s brilliance encompass an array of expertise which allowed me to focus on my healing, my family, and my job without the weight and pressure of the insurance companies and paperwork. Without hesitation, I highly recommend this firm to anyone seeking legal assistance.
