These comments are deeply troubling. We have a full time receptionist staff and our phones are answered from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. In the event of an after hours emergency, if someone in need leaves a voicemail message, real time alerts are received via cell as well as via email. We pride ourselves on accurate billing. If anyone ever has an issue with an entry on a billing statement (which is actually quite rare), we address the issue and make any necessary corrections. My passion and my life’s work has and continues to be helping those in need. My staff is beyond dedicated, often reaching out to clients after hours and on weekends, simply because they are concerned about someone’s well being. Lastly, our firm does not advertise as this commentator tried to assert. The vast majority of clients are referrals from previous clients, other attorneys and professionals in the area.
"I have had a number of interactions with Ms. Kelly over the years. I find her to be highly competent and interactive. I am happy to endorse her."
"I have known Melissa for many years and had the pleasure of woking with her on Family Law cases over the years. I find her to be kind as a person as well as skillful and effective as a lawyer. I would recommend her to anyone."
