Very unprofessional!

Kathryn does not return telephone calls nor text messages and has zero communication skills. I made a request for a refund of a portion of my retainer fee and she went off on me and told me I was only doing this to insult her. This is CRAZY! I paid her $2500 for what is now going to be an uncontes...ted divorce so I asked for $1500 back as she has done nowhere near $1000 worth of work and she went ballistic on me and actually hung up the phone on me. WOW!

Family law is very emotionally charged and we cannot guarantee a particular outcome. When someone comes to us with an already preconceived low opinion of lawyers it can make representation difficult if not impossible as was the case here. We were threatened with a negative review if we did not yield to unreasonable demands and he made good on that threat. This began as an uncontested matter that became contested and we did what we were hired to do. The many positive reviews here reflect the seriousness and care we take with our clients, unfortunately, the Internet is often and too easily used as an "anonymous" weapon.

My experience with Kathryn L. Hudson.

My divorce began May 2014. With three minor children involved, there was no room for error. Upon a reasonable retainer, Kathryn immediately went to work by filing a motion for an emergency hearing. My estranged wife had made many false accusations about me, as for her reason for holding our kids f...rom me until the hearing date. Long story short, Kathryn caught my ex in several lies on the stand. She knows what she's doing in the court room. That hearing resulted in taking my kids home. The judge ordered split custody for the duration of the divorce. Throughout the divorce I dealt with much harassment from dhs. My ex's grandmother knew people in dhs, so we were fighting them off left and right. They would suddenly show up at my house with new accusations about every month to every other month. Each time they did, I felt the need to call my attorney, Kathryn. Kathryn had a real sense of urgency when working with me. She always either answered the phone, or would call me back within less than five minutes each time. She never hesitated to help with advice. Never did she rush me through a conversation. I truly felt I could tell her everything; I was comfortable doing so. Kathryn went to battle dhs with an appeal hearing to take my name off a registry that was false and unjust. Just like at the initial hearing, she knew what she was doing. I felt at ease having her with me. I eventually obtained full custody of my three children, thanks to Kathryn's work and guidance. To describe this attorney, Kathryn L. Hudson, I would say 1. She is thoughtful - thinks about what her client is dealing with personally and considers it when going about her work. 2. Kind but straight forward - Kathryn is a very kind person, although she will not sugar-coat anything, she tells it like it is. 3. Not afraid to stand up against power - Kathryn keeps strong principles that she will not back down on, and not afraid to put her own neck out for a client if she truly believes that her client is being done wrong...by any authority. 4. Believes in Family. Thank you, Kathryn, for all of your hard work in my case. I am ever grateful to have hired you to represent me in such a time of crisis for my family.

Very Satisfied Client

I hired Kathryn after having 2 previous attorneys on my mother's estate. The first deceased and the 2 nd would not respond to contact. Case has been in probate 4 years. Kathryn was so nice, reasonable rates, and assures me there should be no problem getting this case approved within the next 4-6 week...s. I am so happy with her!

Couldn't be happier!!!

Both Kathy and Justin sat down with me and discussed my case in great detail. I was an absolute wreck initially and it definitely showed. I prevailed in the end due to their support and knowledge. They were always ready to answer any questions I had. I cannot thank them enough!!!

Very Dissapointed

Ms. Hudson did a very poor job with my case. She was frequently unavailable in response to how the case was progressing, Provided documented information that quite frankly, was very inaccurate and did not refused to fix issues post hearing that have continued to cause issues, which as a result, a new... attorney had to be retained.

This person is not a client and is attempting to harm my reputation and my law firm's, the poor grammar should be a red flag.
