Best experience ever...

My experience in working with Kimberly (Kim) Scheuerman was way more than what I had expected, and took away the fear of what you hear most people say, 'the attorneys are only in it for the money.' Consulting with Kim was so comfortable...she understands and relates. It was easy to sit down with her ...and to explain my situation. With the information provided to Kim, she worked with me to explain what options were available and walked me step by step through what the process would be and the steps that would have to be taken. As mentioned in a previous review, she may be expensive, but what attorney is not? My children are my world, therefore, I didn't consider, nor discount the cost of my attorney as I wanted an attorney I could trust to be on my side and fight for what was best for my family. If ever I need an attorney again, I will not hesitate to reach out to Kim. It is good to walk out of the office or hang up the phone knowing that who you have hired to take care of you is actually taking that time, and doing it with compassion and honesty.

Visitation modification & domestic violence

Before hiring Kim I had to fire a different attorney. Kim was more expensive but So worth it. Money is tight but is nothing compared to my child's safety. Kim was more prepared than I could have ever imagined. My previous attorney did not do half of what she did. She went above and beyond and ultimat...ely changed the lives of me and my little one. So grateful for her dedication and mostly for keeping my baby safe! I highly recommend her! If needed I will use her again in the future. She is kind, understanding, straight forward and always keeps the child's best interest in mind. She also fought for my safety as well. Couldn't have had a better experience. Thank you!

All about the money

My husband and I had Kim represent us for a custody battle. When we went in for our initial consultation, Kim had our hopes high by suggesting we go for sole to keep our child safe. We paid her a decent retainer as expected up front. However, prior to court we noticed Kim was changing her original pl...ans and trying to force us into settlement. Mind you we were told by several attorney's that they were aware that the judge we had is one who would push and prefer the parties to settle. Considering the Respondent was a drug abuser that was mentally and emotionally abusing our child, we knew we had it all. To top it off, the Respondent filed a false police report and was founded by the judge to have told several lies in court. Our biggest problem was less than 2 months of having Kim represent us, she changed firms and demanded a second retainer a long with a 3rd and separate retainer for the case regarding the false report. During this point, Kim would give legal advice to the Respondent under our dime and force us into agreements that put our child at risk. Before the final trial we had everything going for us until Kim decided to take our case into her own hands and force us into giving the Respondent what she wanted. Which of course ended up being more than what she started with. She also rudely demanded a 4th retainer before trial and was against our feelings. We were ecstatic when Kim quickly withdrew. She took advantage of our family. Thankfully, our child has been seeing a therapist who helped us get sole legal and sole physical custody by aiding an attorney who didn't cost a quarter of what Kim did. In my honest and fair opinion, Kim is not the attorney for you if you are a male and fighting for your child.
