Simply Bombass

After a 3 year divorce and custody battle with my psychotic ex-husband and his mother, Kim was with me every step of the way. From late night phone calls to keeping me level when my situation was getting the best of me she was always there and always someone I could count on. We can’t forget her amaz...ing assistant Nicole, with her timely responses and willingness to help when Kim was not available, a completely seamless team! I cannot thank Kim and her team enough! I will forever be grateful for them and everything they have done for me and my family.

Bombass Attorney!

Kim is an absolute bombass attorney! After I was dragged into my partners custody case by her bitter baby mama, I mean ex-husband, Kim represented me for an unwarranted order of protection. Kim was confident, detailed, and responsive while handling my case. Kim was able to get me some bombass results... and the case was dismissed.

Big disappointment

This lawyer was awful. She ran through my retainer without anything towards my actual case being done. I asked her to meet in person with out side to discuss kids schedule & she refused to try. She came back from pre-trial with a poor outcome & claimed she would be talking to the judge about me when ...in court on other matters. Not a lot professionalism. I heard she is fine for animals or cs…. But please do not use her in your child’s parenting plan. Your kids are worth someone that cares about children & can meet in person to support a plan… this is not that lawyer. I believe I saved my kids childhood by not continuing with her. She also gave me a day to respond on a very serious matter. When I told her I wanted more time she told me that she has special needs kids & that I can read after my kids go to bed. She does not respect that other people put time & care into decisions for their kids. Very untrustworthy to put unnecessary pressure on clients. The only positive I can say is about Liz who works with Kim. Liz understands parents that care… Kim does not.

Great attorney!

Kim was able to help me in my parenting and child support case. Very professional and doesn't sugar coat things (doesn't tell you what you want to hear but tells you the truth). I'm a single mom and she worked with me financially too. I highly recommend her services. Thank you Kim!

Genuinely Cares and Excellent lawyer

I hired her to help with a parenting plan, and child support.She always answered my questions and truly cared about my situation.I was scared, nervous and as a single parent overwhelmed with the court system, she made it a smoother, less stressful to explaining legally of the laws, and she listened t...o me as a person, and we finshed things in court with a successful outcome.Thank you, so much!
