Not Recommended

I had a pretty disappointing experience with this lawyer. She seemed to have a strong bias, and honestly, it felt like she assumed all Muslim men are abusive. That's just unfair and really concerning! I wouldn't suggest anyone, especially brown or Muslim guys, to work with her. It's just not a good f...it. Feel free to tweak it further if you'd like!

Lack of communication

I had a really frustrating experience with this lawyer and her firm. After I signed the retainer, it was like I disappeared. I could never get a hold of her—my calls went unanswered, and my emails were ignored. When I finally did get to speak with her, it felt like she didn’t care about my case at al...l. It was a huge letdown, and I wouldn't recommend her to anyone looking for support.

Posted by anonymous | November 08, 2013 | Divorce & Separation

Kay prevented false allegations from keeping me separated from my children.

I took care of our children for 5 years while my wife worked weekends. She insisted that any job I found must have weekends free so I could take care of them. On the day she filed for divorce, she made an allegation that I was a danger to the children even though she had never said, implied, or hinte...d that she was afraid I might harm them. The court had to decide if this allegation was true or not before I was allowed unsupervised visitation. Kay represented me and got the supervisor I wanted for visitation appointed rather than the one my wife wanted. This appearance before a hearing officer lasted 5 hours due to the determination of my wife to have her desired supervisor appointed. My wife promptly fired her attorney and hired another. The judge ruled in my favor for unsupervised visitation without even hearing the testimony of all my witnesses. She heard the testimony of only my wife's chief witness before saying she was not buying what the witness was saying and told my wife and her attorney to settle because they could not win. Kay's cross-examination showed the bias of this witness. Kay won each and every point that was contested between the parties. Kay proved to the judge that the allegations were false, and my wife and her attorney were not allowed to keep the children from me due to these false allegations. Yes, I recommend her to one and all.
