Shelly Lamar Kennedy

Attorney Shelly stood by me for a long, hard 18 months. She always gave me good advice and didn't just tell me what I wanted to hear. She's a straight-shooter and doesn't make wild promises. You can trust her and what she is saying. She told me that the goal in a divorce case is not to be happy a...t the end, but to be equally unhappy. I thought that was weird at first, but as time went on I knew what she was saying. No one wins in a divorce and custody case. We all lose. I'm just glad Attorney Shelly was with me and she did a good job for me. She returned my telephone calls and sent me copies of all the paperwork. She was well prepared for our court appearances and spoke well in court. I knew she had my back and the result was good. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a fighter.

Shelly really helped me through a tough time. I ended up with my kids and my 401(K) intact. For that I am grateful. She kept in regular contact me and I appreciate the ability to talk to her on the weekends. She returned my telephone calls and saw me before Court. The process was longer than I w...ould have liked, but I guess that is the court system for you. There wasn't a whole lot of arguing back an forth -- some for awhile, but it still took us about a year to get divorced. I thought my attorney knew her stuff and gave me the advice that I needed to hear. She didn't blow smoke and just tell me what I wanted to hear. My attorney fees seemed reasonable and I'm glad to be done with the process. I would highly recommend Shelly if you are going through a divorce or custody case. She will take care of matters and get your case done as fast as possible.

Worst lawyer EVER. Save your money, never dealt with such unprofessional person in my life. She sends her legal aids to do her work, they are the ones who gave the legal advise NOT shelly. SAVE YOUR MONEY NOW! She states she will accept payments but wont, the office staff doesn't communicate and cost...s you more money because you have to keep telling the same story over and over COSTING YOU MORE. Pretty sad when you can hire another atty and they even tell you that Shelly's WORTHLESS! She doesn't even do her own work; the other atty's do it for you. I had to get my own child support; do all my own work and still charges a TON of money for NO WORK. I am doing you a favor GET SOMEONE ELSE NOW!!!

I started my divorce case with another attorney -- had a CPO against me and was paying $1,000 in child support and $1,000 in alimony. Needless to say I was not happy. I immediately went to Shelly and she got the ball rolling -- took my CPO to trial and got that dismissed and then got my support pay...ments lowered. I wish I would have started with her. Now we are fighting for joint custody. She has always answered my questions and has returned my calls within a day or so. She definitely knows what she is doing and is not afraid of anyone. I would recommend her.
