mr

Mrs. King was the best decision I chose when hiring a lawyer. She was very professional, and always attentive to my case. Always answered and returned my calls timely. She got me the results any father could have wished for in a divorce and child custody hearing. I highly recommend her if your are lo...oking for a lawyer of a caring, tough, and well educated in her profession.

Superb Communication, Excellent results

I retained Mrs King and the start of 2016 with the forethought that litigating in my divorce would be a complicated contested one. Mrs King's advised me that at the end of the case we should achieve the results that i wanted. I was actually surprised by how much communication was actually taken p...lace between us. I think we spoke probably every other week, either she checked in and calmed my nerves or she had information that was valid. I would recommend Mrs King to Every and Any one who is in need of an Attorney.

Excellent Attorney

If you're looking for a lawyer that communicates, always responds in a timely manner, educates you on any and all processes and timelines, speaks with you instead talking at you, and knows how to get the JOB DONE!!! Then you need to look no further Kemie King Esq. 2015 was an absolutely terrible ...legal year for me. Or at least it should have been. My separated "wife" was more concerned about collecting child support, instead going through with the divorce process because it would force a parenting plan. My cosmetically appealing condo in Coconut Creek turned out to be a moldy dud. I'm talking the dish washer flooded after the first use and water leaked from the A/C unit immediately. Twas not a good time. I sorted through so many reviews and met with so many attorneys. At this time, though, I've read every statute there is on divorce and parenting plans. I read every forum, reddit, anything with advice and tips on how things may shake out and how to go about things. However, every time I sat in front of an attorney and tried to discuss what I wanted, the conversations were impersonal and I always felt as though they were talking at me. I was fruatrated. Because I know, just like people, not all attorneys are created equal. So much so I just put the divorce on the back burner and just paid the support order and saw my sons on when I wasn't working a second job to keep up. Then I had this terrible condo situation where I wanted to break the lease and absolutely needed an attorney. I was referred to Kemie King. It was just pure dumb luck. I made a phone call to her line and she answered. Told her about my condo situation. She told me she normally works with landlords but was willing to work with me after hearing about the situation. It was about a month and half long process of my landlord trying to make a ton a stipulations for me to leave in agreement, before trying to secretly evict me. But Mrs. King kept warning me to keep an eye on notices and to keep an eye on public records because I no longer stayed in the condo; Also to take pictures and videos of all the mold and apartment issues. This is when I got to see first hand just how good and knowledgeable Mrs. King really was. She plays hard ball with the best of them. Seemed to bring out her best stuff. The back and forth between the landlords attorney and Ms. King was incredible. This is when I knew I was I was in good hands. Kemie King does not back down and coaches well on how to respond and when to remain silent. I got the Voluntary Dismissal to save my credit from any judgements and saved me from the eviction. During the eviction process, Mrs. King became aware of my situation with my separated wife. You could get the sense that she actually cares. We talked. Discussed the process. I found my divorce attorney. This time she was more tactical than I could have ever dreamed. I won't say a word about how she got me through this divorce so efficiently, because I won't dare share any of her tactics. I'm talking ZERO mitigation, only because I took her advice on how to communicate with my now ex-wife. If you listen to what Kemie says, and do it exactly as she says it, you can get things done. And most importantly, she listened to me and acknowledged my feedback. She worked with me and what I wanted. I got exactly what I wanted after Kemie set the expectaions. Mrs. King got the separation done. Got the parenting plan done with 50/50 time sharing. When that was done, went right after the Department of Revenue to get the support order modified. Again, Kemie King does not back down and did her best work when contested. Thank you, Kemie!!
