Kathy M. Baker-Bowen

Kathy was very professional, honest, and fair. She always told us the truth even when it wasn't what we wanted to hear and made sure to prepare us for what would be coming at us next. There was no BS, sugar coating, or wasting our time trying for results she knew we couldn't get. She only charg...ed us for the actual time she worked and didn't just round up to the nearest hour or half hour like most attorneys. She always answered our questions in a timely manner as well. We felt as if she actually had a vested interest in our case and making our lives better. We won our case and would recommend Kathy's services to anyone needing an attorney.

Kathy is an exceptional attorney, extended knowledge in the laws and did a great job translating legal terms into language that I was able to understand. By far she exceeded my expectations when she represented me in my child custody case. She is a compassionate, honest and caring individual and a g...reat asset and representation of the legal profession.

We hired Kathy to represent my Daughter in her Divorce case. I must admit at first I was not sure because we needed a strong attorney to represent her. and I was unfamiliar with her. Her husbands family was well known in the community. She listened, was attentive and respected what we had to say ...and acknowledged my daughters feelings were important. Kathy was not the first attorney that we had interviewed. We actually had to lose a significant retainer with another attorney to switch and I believe we made the right decision. She provided us with helpful information and strong guidance in what was important and what we would just have to live with. She was honest and knew how the judges would react to our case and I must say she was spot on. Even if what she told us we did not want to hear she made sure that we understood and she let us make the decisions. She argued our case by what we wanted and not what she wanted. She was clear and concise in court and was outspoken when needed. She knew her facts and made the other attorneys look unprepared and stupid to the point that the judge had to question my daughters soon to be ex husband on his decision to keep his attorney. Yes, we wanted everything and no we did not get everything but I must say in doing research we fared much better than we could have under the circumstances. I really hate attorneys and I have had the unfortunate opportunity to work with many as a part of my job but I would not hesitate to hire her again if the need arose. I know that she would be honest and do her best!

Kathy was very knowledgeable and responsive. She took control of our entire situation and made our adoption so easy. She attended all of the court dates (without us having to be present for most) and kept us informed of each step. I have recommended her to three friends and she has handled all of ...their issues with ease as well. Kathy is your one-stop-shop for family law! -Tonya
