Posted by Steve | November 10, 2021 | Consulted Attorney

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Disrespectful, rude and acts shady.

This person is rude, shady and disrespectful. Hides behind a claim of attorney client privilege refusing to disclose will to legal next of kin. Unprofessional. This is not someone with which I would ever do any form of business.

Steve, I'm sorry I was not able to share my client's confidential information with you when you called my office. I understand this is frustrating. But, attorney-client privilege, and an attorney's duty to protect privileged information, survives the death of the client (please look Google this if you don't believe me). I take my responsibility to protect privileged information very seriously, and unfortunately, I could not help you under the circumstances. Kim

Awesome

I'd recommend Kim to anyone! She got the job done made sure she answered all of my 257 questions lol & was not pushy like some of the other attorneys I had reached out too.

Helped me above and beyond!

After I was referred to Kimberly Savage, I was on the phone with her the same day. She was eager to get on my case. Really had no idea what to do and was pretty nervous about it. She provided me with direction and reassurance with my bankruptcy. She also referred me to a disabilty lawyer who also... was excellent. Kimberly is a world of information and now a good friend. I would highly recommend Kimberly as a lawyer.

Wonderful!

Kim was recommended by a friend and went above and beyond to help us with a family matter. This was a very trying time and she got us through it. We couldn't have asked for more and highly recommend her to anyone needing legal assistance.

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.
