Kim Lavone Kirn

Kim Kirn represented me in an employment case. I found her to be extremely helpful. She led me through a very difficult time, continually explaining to me each step in the process. I felt very comfortable with her approach and looked to her for expertise and advice. I would highly recommend to other...s.

I am an employment lawyer and Kim Kirn has acted as mediator in several of my cases. In each case, Kim was very knowledgeable about the law and developed a good rapport with my clients. This was critical to success of the mediation. She explained the process and discussed the strenths and weaknes...ses of the case with my clients in a way that was easily understood and (most importantly) objective. I highly recommend her.

Kim was assigned by the EEOC to mediate a claim against my prior employer. She was very professional, warm and courteous, asked a lot of questions to understand my side, and started the mediation with a very clear set of guidelines for both sides to follow. Her stated goal was to have the case resolv...ed, and she offered to do anything to bridge the two sides. At times when one side would stall, she would work with the other to find something else to keep the conversation going. My lawyer representing me was very impressed with her and at the end of the day, both sides had reached an agreement that was very satisfactory. I'm not a lawyer, but I walked away with the distinct impression that she had deep knowledge of the psychology of the lawyer of each side, very intuitive, and honed in on many subtle areas that turned out to be important. Definitely would choose her again if I ever needed a mediation!
