Excellent Attorney!

Kay represented me during a very long divorce process as well as in multiple post-divorce hearings that arose. She is extremely competent, and took time to explain how things worked and prepared me for what to expect throughout the entire process. I could always count on her to respond quickly when I... had urgent questions or needed direction and had 100% confidence in her counsel. She was forthcoming in what to expect and I was very pleased with the outcomes in multiple cases. The thing that really stood out to me in the five years we worked together was how much she genuinely cared about my case and my children and how she worked very hard to represent our best interest at every turn. I highly recommend her and can't imagine going through those 5 years without her being my voice and representing me.

THE BEST!

Ms. Church has handled several matters for me, my family and some of my friends. I've seen her in court in a child custody case (she won), in a child support case (she won), and in a collections case (she won). She is always professional and clearly explains your options and her plan of attack. I'...ve seen her during negotiations where she was firm, aggressive, and took the lead. I've used other attorneys, but Ms. Church is heads and shoulders above any other. I've referred her to friends who have also had great experiences with her. She is THE BEST!

Divorce/Custody

“In my time of heartache, Kay was compassionate towards my situation and aggressive in pursuing what was best for me and my child. She consulted with me on every decision and handled every situation with confidence and poise. I felt very privileged to have her represent my case.”

Excellent trustworthy attorney

I was worried about my rights as a father in Williamson county. Not only did Ms Church get me equal rights to my children in my divorce, she kept me informed all through the process. I highly recommend her.

Great Divorce Attorney

I hired Mrs. Church after dealing with two no-good attorneys. She not only took care of business but I also felt like she cared about her client. I was totally informed about my case from top to bottom. She's very professional and you will start to see results from day 1. After dealing with her throu...gh these trying times I felt like I had made a new friend and would recommend her and use her again.
