unhappy

Mr Higgs was consulted for my child support case that my ex was trying to increase astronomically due to outrageous childcare prices. Mr Higgs basically told me that I could not fight it and that child support is what it is, although I would have no money leftover for bills while working OT and going... to college full-time. After the consultation, I went to court with no lawyer and the judge looked at all the facts and determined that it was much too high and did in fact lower the monthly payment. Mr Higgs could have helped me out, but stated there was nothing that could be done. He does not seem too experienced or confident in this area and I would not recommend him for a consultation.

Out of state custody case

Kim has represented my wife and I in MI several times. We live in TN and he has been great. We can't thank him enough! He has helped us and continues to help us through a very difficult situation!

bogus barrister! !!!

Kim is my court appointed attorney. He has lied to me numerous times. He lied to the court on two occasions. (I have proof). Kim refuses to communicate in any meaningful way. Meaning, he acts as if hes listening but sets his phone down and ignores and plays ignorant. Ive tried everything to get him t...o discuss my case proactively....i even sent him a funny thank u card with kittens on it to sway him to a HUMAN degree to no avail. Ur in trouble if hes ur attorney. Period.

my divorce lawyer did not subpoena any of the records I requested

I paid mr. higgs $1,500.00 to subpoena records . he subpoena no records, he appered to be afraid of my husband's lawyer, he never would return my calls, I felt he was working for my husband, our second time in court i fired him, he didn't care about my case I felt he was lazy and untrustworthy.

child custody

He is a good attorney. Not very aggressive, but a realist. He will fight what he thinks he can win, and he did. He is very honest, friendly, organized and professional.
