This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

This firm is more interested in earning money

At the end of the day, this firm is more interested in earning money off of families than in assisting them navigate painful divorce proceedings. I strongly suggest that you look for a lawyer who is concerned with the best interests of you and your kids, not simply their personal financial gain.

Save your time, money, and energy

Save your time, money, and energy—there are plenty of family law professionals who truly care about putting children first. Katie Lewis and her team are not among them.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Communication was poor

Despite voicing concerns about the impact of the proceedings on my kids, I felt like my questions and worries were brushed aside in favor of pushing forward with costly legal maneuvers. Communication was poor, and I often found myself in the dark about what was actually happening with my case.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

I felt more like a client they could bill endlessly

Throughout the entire cases, I felt more like a client they could bill endlessly, rather than a parent seeking help. My concerns about my kids’ emotional well-being were dismissed or ignored, and their focus seemed to be more on finding ways to extend the case for as long as possible. I never felt li...ke anyone on the team was genuinely invested in finding a child-centered solution.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

They pushed me to set up a recurring credit card payment for their services

They pushed me to set up a recurring credit card payment for their services as one of their first actions. Although this initially sounded strange, it soon became evident that their goal was to bill as much as possible regardless of the case's progress or outcome. Instead of genuinely assisting me or... my kids with the process, the amount of time spent on pointless paperwork, phone conversations, and emails—often with little to no progress—felt more like a means of accruing fees.
