Allison delivered results and handled my case with the utmost professionalism. She understand the dynamics in the Kalamazoo family courts system, she was Prepared in my case and was spot on with cross examination. Allison is a true professional and I would only recommend hiring her for my family court issues. Before hiring Allison I visited two other Kalamazoo attorney and paid 200 after those meeting, I decided to continue my search until I met Allison. If you are reading this and looking for a attorney that will get results call Allison. 10-17-17 Sincerely Scott

Outstanding

Posted by

I hired Allison for a divorce and child custody case. This case was extremely complicated as I was married and had a child to find out later in court that my son was not my biological child. It tore me apart but I still wanted to be dad. Allison fought hard on my case and I'm now living happily with full physical custody of my son. I couldn't have done this without the help of an excellent attorney. Allison is amazing.

Impressed

Posted by

My husband and I hired Allison for a custody battle that my husband has been dealing with for 5 years with his ex-wife. This is one of the more complex custody battles. And we had been through four other attorney's with Allison being the fifth. Allison has done more for my husband's case with his children in the past 2 years since we've hired her than four other attorney's could do in three years. She has been amazing. Our lives are well on their way to being happier, healthier, and less stressful. She knows the law, plans accordingly, is organized, knows what the judge's want and what they are looking for, explores ideas that may not have been thought of, and is a genuinely nice person. I have never once felt like she did not have our best interest in mind. She responds quickly to emails (typically within hours) and has been a blessing. We will definitely keep her around and she will always be our go to for any legal matters.

Excellent Attorney with Very Prompt Communication

Posted by

As a father trying to get custody of my son, I feel that Allison truly understood my concerns and worked hard to help me make the best case possible. She has been my attorney for multiple motions over the years, and has always provided me with honest and effective legal counsel. The first thing that impressed me about Allison, before we ever saw the inside of a courtroom, was her drafting ability. She writes very clearly, with great detail. She doesn't leave loopholes that you will have to struggle with later. The second thing I noticed when dealing with her is her integrity. She always gave me her honest opinion, even when it wasn't necessarily what I wanted to hear at the time. In the end, she really came through for my family, and I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a family law attorney.

Excellent, Professional Legal Help

Posted by

Allison represented my case with a high level of professionalism. She managed my expectations and advised me of potential challenges to appropriately prepare me throughout the process. This was not a relationship where she held my hand and provided me positive affirmations and encouragement, but I did not hire her to be my friend. Allison was hired to represent me and she did so wonderfully. Legal issues are stressful and my situation was no different, but I am thankful to have had Allison represent me and would recommend her highly.

Won my custody case

Posted by

Allison was prompt, attentive and knowledgeable. She helped me gain temporary custody of my daughter quickly when my parenting time was about to expire. She was excellent in court during the hearing for permanent custody. The courts allowed me to retain temporary custody until a full trial could be held, but the full court case was not necessary. I have full custody of my daughter now and could not be happier with the service and legal advice given by Allison. During the entire months long process anytime I emailed Allison with a question or concern she responded very promptly with excellent legal counsel. I could not recommend her services more highly.

Professional, responsive and just an all around great experience for a difficult situation

Posted by

My soon to be ex husband and I had considered going with one of those 'quickie divorce' places because of the cost involved and instead we opted to go with a professional. I am so happy that we did! With something this important, you really want it done right the first time and the cost is definitely worth the peace of mind that working with someone like her will give you. I found Allison to be extremely responsive, ( even responding to emails on the weekend and after hours ). She was always professional, polite and just very easy to work with. We had been married 22 years and this is a difficult enough process without having unnecessary bumps in the road. Allison made this a smooth process and every step was made clear. We were able to make payments until the bill was paid off too. I would recommend her to anyone going through a divorce or really any legal needs that a person may have.

100% AWESOME

Posted by

I have had different attorneys throughout the years of fighting for child custody. I was beginning to think that it was more about the money than helping a child but then I had met Allison and this was not the case anymore, Allison was willing to listen and fight for not only myself but the best interest of my child. I now have full physical custody of my daughter. I have recently referred some friends to Allison, two in which has hired her. One who has just received full physical, sole, legal, custody with the help of Allison and both that I have recently refered to Allison are very happy with the services she is providing. I am beyond happy with the work Allison has provided and is still providing. Its diffucult to need an attorney and not know where to start. Allison is worth more than she charges. She is a great attorney, always giving it her all. She's quick to return emails and phone calls and she's all about her clients and what's in their best interest. You don't have look anymore. I highly recommend Attorney Allison Greenlee Korr for legal services.

Excellent Attorney

Allison has great experience in both family law and bankruptcy. She is a person of trust and makes you feel comfortable. She gets involved in a case from start to finish, analyzes all the information she is given and does not overlook details. She will help you in handling the follow up details of your case as well. She is always very punctual and professional. I would highly recommend Allison as your attorney.

Allison helped me with my divorce and I would like to recommend her to others. She was very professional and seemed extremely knowledgeable. She was able to answer all my questions and put my mind at ease. Everything was done in a timely manner. As an organized person, I really appreciated that she is the same! Essential in an attorney!

Lee Thompson, Divorce and separation Attorney on Nov 11, 2013
Relationship: Other

While I do not know Ms. Korr personally, I have had the opportunity to read her answers on this site in the area of bankruptcy and family law. At one time, I did a great deal of bankruptcy but stopped in 2005 so, like those writing in seeking legal help, I too learn from the assistance she gives others. It is always a credit to an attorney expending the time and energy she does helping people the way she does at Avvo and, I have no hesitancy in endorsing Ms. Korr as an attorney.

Bret Nason, Bankruptcy and debt Attorney on Nov 10, 2013
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I endorse Allison. Her work in the Chapter 13 trustee's office means that she is intimately familiar with the local practice and procedures. Although I haven't met her in person, I know Allison through our common membership in national bankruptcy listservs. I would have no reservations in recommending her to a family member in need of bankruptcy representation.

David Axinn, Social security Attorney on Nov 8, 2013
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I endorse this lawyer. She is an experienced bankruptcy lawyer, whom I know through her participation on AVVO, and the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Lawyers. She is a knowledgeable and caring, and can provide excellent representation to someone in financial difficulty.
