Amazing Lawyer, Amazing Results

We were brought into the CPS spotlight as a result of vindictiveness of our grandson's father and his family. We have never even had custody of our grandson. We get to see him every now and then. But the accusations presented to CPS were of great severity. We knew that we, my husband and myself, need...ed not only protection against these allegations and having CPS in our lives (we are in our 50s), but that the lawyer had to be the best of the best. We hired Ms. Ketterman and we never heard another word from CPS, all allegations were ruled out, and Ms. Ketterman filled out our Role Removal from CPS Registry form quickly and we received it within two days. This lawyer is the best of the best. She doesn't play dirty or sneaky. She follows the law. I wouldn't be surprised if she has photographic memory, because NOTHING gets past her. We definitely recommend Mr. Ketterman to anyone out there being treated unjustly by CPS. We have also hired her to represent our daughter regarding custody. We have 200% confidence that she will prevail and all will be restored back to a peaceful loving environment. Bless you Ms. Ketterman, you are our "Court Warrior!"

Julie ROCKS!!!

I hired Julie in June of 2015 to get my son back home after CPS mishandled my case in 2013. Julie met with me, heard my story and had a sense of urgency when it came to getting my baby back home. In less than 6 months, my son was ordered back home without incident! I was also pregnant and had a beaut...iful baby girl. CPS did not invade themselves into my life or try to take my baby because of Julie. The Judge even took out the time to review my case and study the facts and the allegations of abuse or neglect against me were dismissed. Julie, thank you so much for piecing my family back together. Julie Ketterman at KHA Lawyers ROCK! I would recommend anyone to get a CPS attorney that will not hesitate to fight for your rights and that's Julie!

Julie Ketterman helped me and my husband to keep our baby

My husband and I had two of our children removed by cps. During this time I was pregnant with our 3 rd baby. Cps tried to take my baby and we were so horrified and scared. We would have not been able to handle loosing our baby too. Julie Ketterman helped us to keep our baby and have cps rule out any ...abuse or neglect. We are truly grateful for that. She also helped us to keep our parental rights to our other two children. We are trying to get our 2 oldest back home and feel confident that Julie can help us again. She is a great trial attorney.

Freaking BEST LAWYER EVER

Best lawyer ever! You do get what you pay for! That being said we had a baby lawyer spent 2500 dollars on him for him to sit in a Cps meeting to tell us to do what they said, EVERYTHING they said. We got Rid of him and got Julie, best money ever spent. For people who give her bad reviews it's usually... because they don't feel it's worth spending all this money for your kids back from Cps, and that's usually where I sit back and laugh at the fact that your even trying to fight for your kids back, i would have spent a million dollars for my step kids! She does her job and she does it well. She's only missed one court date for a emergency but sent Scott who was an amazing lawyer that still got us everything we wanted. You also have to remember some people who hire her actually did things the best lawyer in the country can't get them out of but Julie goes for the best outcome, if you do what is told!. She knows the law and knows it well. If you wanna actually listen, pay for a great lawyer and get the best outcome of the situation you need to hire Julie. If you don't wanna spend money on getting your kids back go to a baby lawyer. Pretty sure they will be glad to take a small amount of money to walk you thru to get you nothing. Hire Julie if you want the best outcome! By the way; our kids are home with us and will continue to stay thanks to Julie! :)

Julie fought CPS for me

CPS took my son away from me and Julie was amazing in getting him back! I was so scared I would never see him again but Julie squashed all my fears and dominated in court and I got custody of my son again. I am so happy I hired her as my attorney and will definitely be recommending her to anyone and ...everyone I know!
