THE BEST YOU WILL FIND

I was refered by a friend, she is a friend for life now. Mr. Kay is always professional, kept me informed at all times. He was supportive, and forceful when needed. He would not let me give up. He knows what he is doing, was always looking out for my best interest. I never had to see my now ex the en...tire process, which made it so much easier. He was always a phone call away. At first it seemed like a small case, but as he dug in he found more, much more. I would not have gotten the settlement I received with any other lawyer I am sure. Mr Kay was like a dog with a bone. He never let go. He worked long and hard on my case. I can not say enough wonderful things about this man. He is not just a outstanding lawyer, but a good honest person too. When I found out about this website I could not wait to log on and put my comments. If you use this man you will not be sorry. Great lawyer. I thank God every day for bringing Mr Kay into my life. It made a sad time in my life more bearable. Thx u

Representation on student loan debt (related to divorce decree)

My Kay won all (there were several) student loan NCSLT cases related to my deadbeat ex, and saved me north of $50k in debt that was originally agreed to NOT be paid by me. He was referred by a colleague of my divorce enforcement atty as he has been successful defending people in cases by National Col...legiate Student Loan Trust.

Incompetent

Aged, slow and unable to keep up with opposing counsel. Lost my case because I went with this guy. Learned a lesson about the saying you get what you pay for.

4 Retainers & 2 Years Later..

At first, I had high expectations that Mr. Kay would and could jog me through the divorce process as a ‘turn and burn’. 1: He absolutely forgot to file for my Temp Orders hearing, so months passed for nothing. 2: When I did actually get to talk to him, vs emailing his secretary, he was consistently ...arrogant and interrupted me- he even yelled at me a time or two. 3: During TO hearing, he even irritated the judge! 4: Ultimately, I had to pay FOUR retainer fees total, which was over $14k (I am still paying back loans for). No ‘turn and burn’ case for me- over 2 years to finish. I was too invested to switch counsel though. The only one who got me what I wanted & deserved, was God with life’s plans. = Full custody of my kid(s). However, Mr Kay and my ex got a LOT of my money, and neither one deserved that.

Dropped the ball

Mr. K was opposing counsel for my modification case. He never filed the paperwork for our hearing and a year later we had to go back and try again, Only to have the hearing postponed once again because Mr. Kay didn’t know we were to be in court in person. Much of my time and money was wasted due to m...istakes on his part. I’m glad I wasn’t paying him. I would be even more furious.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I had the pleasure of serving as opposing counsel to Mr. Kay during a divorce case. The clients were very emotional and assets being divided were relatively high. This is usually a recipe for lengthy and expensive cases. Thanks to our mutual efforts, we were able to work out a great conclusion for our clients that kept much of their estate in tact without the need to pay high attorney fees. Mr. Kay was courteous and respectful to everyone, even when we didn't see eye to eye. I was so impressed with him that I have stayed in contact since that case and consider him an outstanding member of the Austin and Georgetown Legal Profession. I know to stay on my guard when he's the opposing attorney, but he is is very efficient and effective for his clients."

  • 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.
