Terrible lawyer

Do not go near this woman! She is a disaster! Dropped me like a hot box of rocks when she got pregnant. Lied about progress. Failed to communicate. Ignored me for three months. Showed up with a text today saying how sorry she is to decide to close her practice. She already missed a statute of limitat...ions. Said she “has walked this journey with me”. How absurd. She is unstable if she thinks this!

Took excellent care of me

My employer "eliminated my position" when I took a FMLA approved leave in October 2017. I interviewed several attorneys and selected KC to handle my case. KC was extremely knowledgeable and within minutes of our initial meeting ending, she had already sent documents to the company to inform them ...of our intent to file a lawsuit. Within a few weeks, she was working with them to get me an acceptable severance. KC was able to get me almost 9 times what my past employer had told me was all they would agree to giving me. The negotiations were complete in less than 60 days. KC was not only knowledgeable and confident but her communication with me was outstanding. This all occured during the holidays and she kept me informed through everything. I highly recommend KC and am beyond pleased with the outcome.

Consultation

Ms. Kathy and I spoke on the phone in length. Ms. Kathy was very professional, honest, caring and respectful. Ms. Kathy took the extra time to listen to my issues and concerns. I would recommend Ms. Kathy

Energizer Bunny

KC worked on my ADA discrimination case. Which we WON! Trust was a problem for me, and KC earned my trust. Knowledgeable and organized. Choosing an attorney is an important decision. Choose wisely. I did. Thank you KC!!

Kathryn Comly Hopkinson is a Trustworthy Attorney

Kathryn C. Hopkinson handled a complicated reverse discrimination case for me. She kept me informed; filed all the EEOC paperwork and updates, and helped me get unemployment benefits. My case was successfully mediated in my favor. Kathryn is a pleasure to work with and an excellent attorney. Kudos.

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.
