Matlock In the Bottom of the 9th

Kelly Morgan became my third attorney in a "high conflict" divorce which became a grotesque feeding ground for a bevy of key players. My 15 month marriage that I wanted OUT of (no children/no joint accounts/me asking for $0) should have been a quick & easy ordeal. (Right?) Nope. As bitterness,power...,vengeance & greed were all festering in a "legal-soup" of "Lifetime TV" magnitude, the un-imaginable became my reality. Kelly's legal history combined with his patient & conscientious efforts ultimately helped release me from a tremendous nightmare that I could't seem to escape. I can't say the legal outcome was my notion of either "fair" or ideal, but I have no doubt that Kelly's efforts and willingness to take on my legal mess in the bottom of the 9th inning greatly minimized the sum of my horrors.

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.
