Kathleen Margaret Smith

Kathleen was highly recommended to me for post-divorce issues, and now I am in turn highly recommending her to you! From the initial consult, immediate return calls/emails, to the judge's ruling in my favor, Kathleen clearly had my best interest at heart. She is forthright, professional, and an abs...olute rockstar attorney.

Kathleen Smith represented me during my divorce. Based on my experience, I would not recommend her. I did not feel adequately protected, prepared, or guided through the process, and I walked away feeling like major issues were not handled with the level of care and strategy I needed. Divorce and c...ustody matters are stressful enough without feeling like your own attorney is not fully prepared or advocating effectively. I ultimately felt disappointed, unsupported, and like I was left dealing with the consequences long after the case moved forward. This review is based only on my personal experience, but if I could go back, I would have chosen different representation.

I would not recommend hiring Michael Gauthier or Kathleen Smith for high-conflict divorce cases. Based on my experience, they did not meet the standards of advocacy I expected, particularly in a case involving challenging dynamics such as alleged criminal perjury, violations of court orders, and mani...pulation. Despite providing documentation that demonstrated clear evidence of criminal misconduct and intent by the opposing party, Kathleen Smith and Michael Gauthier failed to take meaningful steps to protect me or my children from these actions.
