Katie leads an awesome legal team

The Connell Cummings legal team: Katie Connell, Amy Saul Mollengarden & Jessica Bringle; which helped me with divorce related matters is really great. I really appreciated their understanding, consideration, dedication & professionalism. I hired them in two legal actions, resulting in two winning c...ases, including compensation in the second. It was my pleasure to work with this team and I would hire them any day. And of course, I would recommend them to any person who requires support to deal and resolve any family legal matter.

Outstanding job for us.

Katie has represented me for 18 months through an ongoing custody case. While I was upset and worried throughout the case, Katie was patient and understanding of my needs and questions. However, most of all, Katie is very professional and very talented as a family lawyer. I am satisfied with the o...utcome and she did a tremendous job in my legal representation. I strongly 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.
