Great attorney

Kelly was appointed by the judge to my case as our Guardian at litem. I felt she really did a great job for my child. She was always informed, she contacted my ex-spouse and I promptly, her office is quick to return calls, she spoke very calmly and politely with my ex-spouse's attorney (who was an ex...tremely difficult attorney to work with) and she was always courteous (but firm) in court. She truly looked out for my child's best interest and she made recommendations to the judge fully acknowledging requests from both sides - mine and my ex-spouse. Thanks to her, my divorce went smoother and settling on custody issues was much easier given her knowledge of the law and ability to explain it in such a way that a lay person like me could understand. I really highly recommend her if you have tough custody issues with your ex-spouse.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
