Phenomenal!

No words can praise this woman for what she does! After spending close to 7 years in and out of Family court, and using 3 different lawyers that made little to no progress, I reached out to Raleigh. I wish I would of used her long ago! Raleigh is caring, concerned, extremely knowledgeable, profession...al, understanding and knows how to present the facts! The Facts Win! And, unlike others, when she says she is there for you, she means it! Don’t waste your time or money on anyone else if you want action and results. Watching and listening to Raleigh in the courtroom truly was a honor! She ROCKS! I highly recommend her to anyone in need!

The best attorney for post divorce issues

Raleigh Kalbfleisch helped me with financial problems I was having, years after the divorce. I never had to remind her of anything. She was fantastic. She knows the law inside and out, has many ideas, stood firm for me in front of the judge. She was so fair in her pricing - there were never any surpr...ises.

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.
