Unresponsive and Will not return calls

Rachel is the worst attorney I have ever done business with. She will not return calls from myself or my attorney, she will not respond to emails or my car lender to help with a misplaced title situation. She has had every opportunity in the world to reply but refuses. I have reported her to the I...ndiana State Bar association and am now getting ready to hire legal counsel to sue her for Breach of Duty and Breach of Contract.

Good Attorney for Women!

Ms. Kidd: Was very nice to me and did not belittle me. She got me through my bankruptcy. I now own 6 acres and a home.

Caring Attorney

Rachel Kidd was good to me. She listened to me. She took into account that I was a single mother and I did not have much money. She saved me and my son. I now have a car, house and land because of her. She inspired me to go back to school and make something of myself.

Understanding Attorney

Rachel is very good attorney. When she filed my bankruptcy for me, my mother was going into the nursing home. She made me feel at ease and she turned my situation around. I was able to keep my mom's house. She also took care of some really nasty creditors for me. She is really aggressive and really d...efends her clients. I referred my husband to her and she helped him with his bankruptcy too.

Posted by Jeff B | January 15, 2015 | Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Financial Crisis Attorney

My wife ran off to South Carolina and left me and the boys high and dry. Rachel helped me file my bankruptcy and saved me and the boys from becoming homeless. She filed a chapter 13 for me and saved my house. Stopped the sheriff sale dead in its tracks. I am also paying back my big federal tax bill i...n my chapter 13. She saved my life. She is like an angel here on earth.

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"I had the pleasure to work with Rachel for many years and she is a wonderful attorney. Not just conceptually from the practicing law standpoint, but also from having the empathy and emotional compassion to help clients struggling through a rough time in their lives. She is very knowledgeable about how to get people out of debt not only from the full bankruptcy process but also from non-bankruptcy and non-traditional options as well. I would fully recommend Rachel with any client that needed financial help."
