Ms. Orr's representation

I recently enlisted Ms. Orr to represent me in a divorce proceeding. I shopped around to find someone I felt was experienced in the court room, understanding of my situation and of course, specialized in family law. After the initial interview, I came away feeling she was very knowledgeable about the... law and explained the process that needed to be undertaken to adequately represent me. I feel that I could not have made a better choice. My phone calls were returned promptly, she was well prepared for court and I received a better than expected settlement.

HIRE HER

Kathy Orr was awesome I had the pleasure of working with her this last month and all I can say is that you want to hire her. You do not want to be on the other side and not have her as YOUR attorney. She is awesome she went to bat for my children and I and got them what they needed. She does not play.... She is very blunt and to the point I love that about her. I would recommend her to everyone. She helped me last minute in my time of need and i appreciate this. I'm so glad we got my case resolved quickly. HIRE HER you won't regret it i didn't.

The Best Lawyer that Cares

Kathy was recommended to me by St Marys Law School and she was a god send when she was. I was in the middle of a very complex custody battle and she came in with a bang and stepped up to the plate and did not let anything get past her. She is very knowledgable of the law and never lead me into hopes ...of what I wanted but what the likely hood of what could happen or not happen never gave me false hopes. And when I did get false hopes she would let me know that that was not likely to happen or it was if it could be. This is a very long and complicated case and she still works just as hard today as she did the day she started, if not harder. She takes a personal interest in all of her clients so that you know she cares and it is not just a job. I never have to play with trying to contact her she doesn't avoid her clients but instead makes them feel that they are worth her attention. She is very much into the details of everything and points out what you might have missed. She is a person who looks at her clients as her equal not someone beaneath her ... she talks to you not down at you like a lot of attorney's do. The best thing I can say about Kathy is that she makes you feel better in your times of need. I would recommended her to any and everyone that needs an attorney. And now that I have her as mine I will always feel my back is covered and that I have a friend as well. Thanks Kathy for everything
