Supportive and Competent Attorney

Mr. Kelley was very supportive in my case and helped me get what I requested in my child custody agreement. Mr. Kelley and his team were great with providing information so that I could make informed decisions during my case and not walk away feeling like I lost something.

Highly Recommend

As my Attorney in a child custody case , David Kelley and Lisa both answered all of my questions and eased my mind every step of the way. They made me feel comfortable, confident , and explained the process to me along the way. I would recommend them and will be using them again.

Highly recommend

Mr. David Kelley and Lisa Gavia are great! From the start Mr. Kelley explained to me how my child custody case was going to be handled because I had no idea what I was doing. He communicated with me and provided quick feedback. The process was very smooth and quick. I would highly recommend to anyone... looking for a family lawyer. Both Mr. Kelley and Lisa were very helpful and kind!

Experienced and Knowledgeable

I was very nervous when my ex decided to file for full custody. During my consultation, I could tell Mr. Kelley was experienced and knew exactly how to navigate through my custody battle. These situations can be very scary, especially when you think about losing time with your child. Lisa Gavia and M...r. Kelley were always very responsive, answered any questions or concerns I had, and made this an easier experience than I was anticipating. Very appreciative of their help and support.

Mr. Kelley provided exceptional legal support for my divorce case. His law office was thorough, diligent, and timely with all work on my case. The communication was superb as they took time to help me understand my rights and options, and answered the many questions I had. I highly recommend Mr. Kell...ey's law office.
