Posted by Andres | July 24, 2021 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent legal team. Will get promising results.

Kiele Pace and her legal team at her firm are very thorough and knowledgeable in their defense and managed to get both of my domestic violence cases dismissed with out me making any type of plea. They went above and beyond to dismiss my cases, and are willing to take on stubborn prosecutors who don't... like to lose.

Wish she lived closer

Consulted with the attorney, who went out of her way to help me. She explained where I was in the criminal process, what was likely to happen and the best steps I could take. Unfortunately, she didn't live in my district so I couldn't hire her, but that didn't stop her from researching and providing ...advice on a myriad of concerns I had. If she worked that hard on someone who couldn't hire her, just think what a tremendous resource she would be to her clients! This is the type of lawyer people pray they retain when one is needed!

She is AMAZING!

Ms. Kiele literally answered every question that I had without judging my lack of knowledge. She has been amazing and if it were not for time requirements needed to be met to take my next step, I would be able to fix my issue due to her advice an knowledge. Thank you so much!

She is very experienced and takes the time to listen to your concerns and questions. Better yet, she relates your experience to what she has dealt with both as a former prosecutor and criminal defense attorney.
