Joe

Unprofessional judge doesn’t care and judge’s based on her perfectly life. An don’t care about real life situations. She doesn’t know how much damage she made on families and should not be a judge

Worst judge

She is perfectly OK sending a child back to a sexually indecent situation because she is "bound by law," her attitude stank from even outside the court room. Unprofessional. Don't even bother trying to protect a child if she is the judge. Cause she won't. Even when she spoke to the child she did NOTH...ING. Even said "they may run away but..."and then shrugged. Didn't acknowledge the fact that the child was completely uncomfortable returning to that situation. She doesn't care about children and protecting. She just wants to check a box and move on.

Worst JUDGE

I would give her zero stars if I could. Kate Stone is one of the most biased, pro mothering judges I have ever came across. My husband lost rights to his daughter when we had compelling evidence against the mother all because Kate Stone immediately didn’t like our attorney but was close to the mothe...rs attorney. My husband lost his daughter in court because of Kate Stone and her biased judgement when last I checked a judge is never to be biased. Kate Stone is remarried with a man who is a stepfather to her children so if your a dad fighting for your rights with this judge just know you will not win your case. No matter how much evidence you have against the mother. This woman should not be a judge nor will I ever refer to her as a judge.

Impressive!

Kates diligence and determination helped get me the best possible outcome in my case. She fought hard for me and impressed me on every level. I would highly recommend Kate to anyone needing legal counsel.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
