displeased with results

Ms. Ridenour was my lawyer in a divorce case where I lost hundreds of thousands of dollars. I suggest you use her if you want similar results. She may consider this a win, or a resume builder with a high dollar case, that maybe I would have lost more in, but I am not sure. I have had my case reviewed... by two other lawyers since, who agreed that I could have made out much better. Also with parenting issues, Ms. Ridenour got steamrolled. My appearance is one that does not do well in an American (white) courtroom, with that background I make the following review: Ms. Ridenour also does not have an appearance or demeanor that does well in a courtroom. She is extremely pleasant and kind, but this is not what is needed. Also, based on appearance, she looks younger than she is. This does not help. At times I felt that I was being represented by a lamb in a lions world, and she was getting eaten up. When she was frustrated with me, she would send me an email CCd to her boss (Mr. King). She was maybe doing this to carry more weight, but since I know she could have just as well BCCd him, it unfortunately just made herself look more like she needs to be backed up by someone more senior. Like “I’m going to tell my daddy.” I really think Ms. Ridenour will do better in a different area of law (or different career altogether, I changed careers early on myself), because she is way to nice for this field. She was very methodical and by the book, like she is just out of school, but it was apparent that the opposing lawyer was using years of street experience to pull moves that he knew he could get away with. Ms. Ridenour does not yet have this experience. Sorry for this review!

"I have known Katelyn for 3 years as a fellow attorney. I endorse her because she really cares about her clients and has a broad base of legal knowledge in order to represent them effectively. I firmly believe she is passionate in representing women and men in their legal struggles - without getting sleazy like some family law lawyers. I don't see her with an over-emphasis on fees, either, like some lawyers tend to do. Give her a call and see if you don't agree."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
