PROFESSIONAL, RESPECTED, AND EXCELLENT ATTORNEY!!!!!!

I hired Kelly to represent me in a custody case because I had heard many good things about her from people. She proved to be an excellent choice and I was very pleased with the results of my case. I write this review for two purposes: 1) to send a message to others about a great attorney, and 2) to... combat the negative reviews of her. There is no doubt Kelly is a very busy person and not always readily available at the time of your call; however, there is a REASON she is unavailable - she has many clients for whom she is working extremely hard. I learned to understand that my case is not her only case and I needed to be patient. She will respond. She is trustworthy. She executes her plans for your case, effectively and efficiently. Her fees are more than reasonable. She is well-respected in the area and by her clients, the judges, and other attorneys. DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THE OTHER REVIEWS! I proudly attach my name to this review, whereas the negative reviewers do not. Makes you wonder whether they are actually clients! I think it's fair to assume that the negative reviews are from non-paying clients and/or the opposing party to Kelly's clients! You will make a mistake if you do not hire Kelly in your case, trust me.

Excellent, respectable, and high-recommended attorney!

I had the pleasure of working with Kelly in a very difficult divorce and time in my life. Kelly is very knowledgeable of the law and the court system, and she provided me with a plan of action for my divorce, which was strategically carried out in a professional and successful manner. I have read t...he other reviews about Kelly on this website, and it truly bothers me. There is a common theme with the "poor" reviews - they are all non-paying clients. Perhaps, if these people actually paid for the services provided, they may have had a different result. It's too bad that people believe they are "entitled" to representation. Kelly provides a service in a difficult area of law, and it should be expected by clients that divorces will cost money. I always found Kelly's bills and charges for time reasonable and more than fair. On a personal level, she is easy to speak with; on a business level, she is a strong presence in Court for her clients. I was more than happy with my experience with Kelly and I highly recommend her services to anyone who may find themselves in a divorce, custody, or similar situation.

An Attorney Who Cares, Your not Just another Case!

Kelly is an excellent attorney, very knowledgeable, a good listener and an attorney who will go to bat for you if she knows you are telling the truth and are honest with her, was my guardian ad litem for my kids, and helped me get my kids back even though my now ex-wife put me thru hell, I believe in... what goes around comes around, so Thanks to Kelly and her sister I can move forward, Thank You so Much Kelly, I will never forget what you have done for me and my kids!

VERY satisfied!!!

I had the opportunity to bring Kelly on my case two years ago and have had nothing but great results! Kelly is very reliable, very responsive and has provided outstanding legal advice and representation....she has faced and continues to face my VERY difficult ex-husband including post-appellate cour...t proceedings...and we are extremely pleased!!! I am very confident, knowing things are taken care of with Attorney Vecchio on my case and would highly recommend her !!!

Kelly Vecchio is great!! Very knowledgable and competent attorney!! Highly Recommend!!!

Kelly Vecchio has been an incredible help and has done an amazing job for me in the last few months, during a complicated divorce case. She continues to follow through as she says, is VERY competent and knowlegable in her profession, and will tell you the facts. Many attorneys will push matters to ma...ke money and just tell you what you want to hear, and in the end you have spent a large amount of money for the same result. Kelly does NOT do that, she will be very honest and up front with your case. She comes highly recommended and is very professional. The office has always been courteous and efficient with emails and correspondence. Highly recommend Kelly Vecchio!!!!
