AMAZING AND GOES BEYOND THE EXTRA MILE

If there were 10 stars I would give them to her. She is goes above and beyond and is truly passionate to help people. I cannot express how much and and how many ways this attorney has helped me.

Katherine is the best!

She is experienced and knowledgeable. I defer to her judgement on what to do because I know she looks out for my best interest and she has never let me down. And I've been very impressed how quick she thinks on her feet to get me what I need. I would highly recommend!!

A lawyer who responds!

We hired Atty. Rudzik in regards to a dispute with a crazy person. Atty. Rudzik was prompt in responding to our calls and questions. She clearly explained the process, got us a restraining order immediately and was very reassuring. Our problem went away within a week, and I would highly reccomend her....

Honest Attorney

Attorney Rudzik has helped me in a number matters. I have found her to be thorough, knowledgable and fair. All of the matters she has helped me on were civil in nature.

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.
