Stay Far Away!

Kept trying to push me in a direction I clearly told her upfront that I didn't want to go. Sloppy work. Became unresponsive and very difficult to get hold of. Eventually, let her go.

Very Informative

I appreciate Kim, though she wasn't able to take my case, she referred me to another lawyer that could. She listened to my concerns and was very helpful in general. She is very knowledgeable about the law.

Authentic Legal Counselor

Attorney Brown is one of the most authentic attorneys I have ever met. She is considerate of one's personal feelings. However, she does not allow that to interfere with providing the best, unbiased legal counsel. When I approached Kim regarding my situation, I was extremely nervous due to my fear of... the unknown. She thoroughly presented all available options and legal implications for each option. I was able to make an informed decision regarding my situation. I have no doubt that Attorney Brown will aggressively work for my best interest while maintaining her professional integrity.

A trusted resource!

Kim was extremely proficient and knowledgable during my case. There was never a doubt in my mind about her ability to aggressively represent my best interest. I was at ease with her ability to explain all legal implications. Ultimately, I felt assured in knowing that she would provide me with releva...nt and timely information in a manner that would allow me to comfortably make informed decisions regarding my situation.

"Kim shares an excellent professional and personal rapport with many people in the legal community. I have had the pleasure of observing her in court and assisting Kim in some of her cases. Each time I was always amazed and very proud of her analytical objectivity, thorough understanding and accurate interpretation of the law, ability to adapt in difficult situations, and her attention to detail. I believe it is because of these attributes she has earned a reputation in the Madison County legal community for providing quality and ethical representation for her clients and working with opposing counsel fairly and professionally. I heartily endorse this lawyer."
