Kathryn Renee Tolison

It’s difficult to hire an attorney and file for divorce in a county where everybody knows my ex-husband and I, but Katie made the process pretty painless- considering. She stood up against him for what I wanted, and fought for what was fair. she considered things regarding child support and division ...of assets that I’d have never thought of, especially long term. She encouraged us to hammer out the details ourselves to save legal costs- advice I appreciate! Katie came highly recommended to me, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others.

I was already divorced but ex was trying to stop paying Spousal maintenance and reducing child support. Kathryn was kind, understanding, and knowledgeable. She kept my overall fees down by having her paralegal do as much of the back and forth work as possible. She advised me on several options and... she was aggressive with my ex when necessary.

Katie and the team at Tolison & Williams represented me in a modification of custody case (years after divorce), that expanded into a fight over decision making rights, child support (including the need to impute the other sides income), the use of a Parental Responsibility Evaluator, a full day tria...l and more. She guided me through significant challenges related to the other side's over litigation of the case to include responding to and resolving an unnecessary forthwith motion, responding to and managing through the unnecessary issuance of discovery, managing and responding to an unnecessary records subpoenas, and strategically managing the generally aggressive litigation approach. Katie developed clear and concise strategies on how to approach every aspect of the case, how to respond to the actions of and motions filled by opposing counsel and provided great advice and support during the nearly year-long battle. This ensured that not only were we well prepared, but that I was never surprised by what was happening in the case. In the end, Katie secured my time with my child (increase to 50/50), preserved my involvement in his life through maintaining joint-decision making rights, successfully showed underemployment of his other parent, helped preserve my financial ability to provide for my son and the rest of my family, and disproved most of the other sides attacks, accusations, and claims. She has shown herself to a be a true professional, advocate, and expert. She achieved no less than 100% of what we sought going into trial and delivered exceptional results. In addition to her performance as a lawyer, she showed me great empathy during an emotionally charged time as we went through this process. Not only did this help her guide me through this time, but it also built a strong trusting bond that made this process easier to work through. I would recommend anyone who is seeking help with custody issues, decision making rights, protection of financial means to support a family, or any other domestic relations matter, reach out to Katie....I do not believe you will find better.

Katie was able to get me everything I asked for in my divorce. Including full custody of my kids and a hefty child support. Katie was kind and genuine and made me feel comfortable with the process. I would recommend her to my friends and family. Thank you Katie, for allowing me to get my new life st...arted.

Kathryn has represented me several times throughout the last 4 years for post decree issues such as child support adjustments and visitations. She is very knowledge and thorough. She truly cares, has compassion for her clients and has been a great advocate for me. I will continue to use her for all a...nd any issue that may arise in the future and I would recommend her to anyone!
