Kim was very knowledgeable and put me at ease with my process of the whole divorce. Her responsive time is excellent especially through email since I work all the time. I would definately recommend her and use her services again.
Kim Watson Torres's Lawyer Endorsements
"Kim is the President of the Alternative Dispute Resolution Section of the Florida Bar, with over twenty years of experience and an excellent mediator. As such, she is highly skilled and respected in this community. I had the privilege of observing her mediate several times. She works well with people and takes the time to listen, focus the parties and do the job right. I was actually surprised to learn that her rates are much more affordable than most mediators with her level of expertise and experience. I highly recommend Kim."
"Kim has served many of my clients in the role as a Certified Family Law Mediator. Her patient personality and creative thinking have been a real asset in helping parties resolve their cases. The fact that she is an attorney in addition to being a mediator creates a perfect match of legal knowledge and skilled negotiation facilitator."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Ms. Torres is a skilled and hardworking professional. I have had occasion to sit in on two mediations in which she was involved and can attest to her dedication to get the pertinent issues sorted out in an ethical and proficient manner. I have zero hesitation endorsing her."
"I believe very strongly in the mediation and leadership abilities of Ms. Torres. She is an extraordinarily dedicated, organized and intelligent professional. She has selflessly mentored me on more than one occasion. Ms. Torres is an asset to any project and I hope to collaborate with her again in the future."
