Life Saver

Kaitlyn is great!! Very professional, caring, responsive, informative, and smart. I was in a bad spot and she didn't beat around the bush. It was obvious to me she cared about getting the best possible outcome. I'm so glad I hired her. Thanks Kaitlyn! 10/10

Very fair, and tough!

I was up on a serious charge. I was facing a lot of jail time. Kaitlin was very informative. She really did help keep my worries at bay. If she can't be reached, her assistant was always available. Anyway, I received, curfew, probation and community service. Thanks again Kaitlin...

If you find yourself in trouble, hire her!

Kaitlin is the best! She took my case and always kept me in the know. I was very scared and one of the best decisions I made was to hire her! She put me at ease and was very professional. I can’t say it enough! The outcome of my case was amazing (case dismissed)! Thank you so much!

Kind, honest and amazing

Kaitlin was nothing short of amazing! I needed to hire a criminal defense attorney for my son. She is incredibly knowledgeable, honest and transparent. Kaitlin was very responsive to all of my questions and concerns, and she patiently took the time to explain everything that was going on, as well as ...what to anticipate so that I could be as prepared as possible for all outcomes. Kaitlin is absolutely fantastic! And in the end, we got the best possible outcome!
