About Kathryn

Biography

We provide expert legal support and compassionate guidance to help you navigate life's toughest family transitions. Our goal is to handle the legal complexities for you, enabling you to move forward with confidence and peace of mind.

We believe every child deserves a stable, loving home, and we are dedicated to making that a legal reality through expert adoption advocacy. We provide clear legal support to help you navigate stepparent, kinship, and custodial adoptions.

As parents, nothing is more important to us than our children. As child custody attorneys, we are well aware of this. We combine empathy with objectivity to advocate for the best outcome for your children and family.

Choosing to separate is never easy, but you don't have to face the legal path alone. We combine years of family law expertise with a supportive, client-first approach to handle the complexities of your divorce, so you feel heard and prepared for a stable future.

Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements are about protecting your future and creating financial clarity. We provide expert legal support to help you and your spouse build a secure foundation and clearly define your expectations.

Mediation offers a path to resolve family disputes with dignity and cooperation. We provide legal support to guide you through constructive dialogue, helping you reach fair, sustainable agreements while avoiding the stress and cost of traditional litigation.

Custody/Divorce

Katie and her team are amazing at what they do. Smart, efficient, driven while showing companion. I would and have recommend anyone and everyone to her. She has helped me with two cases. One for custody rights and the second was for a divorce. I hope to never need have another need for her services, ...but if I do, I won't hesitate to call her.

Amazing Divorce Attorney Highly Recommend

I hired Kathryn Tolison and her team to help me with my Divorce. The team was very professional, knowledgeable, compassionate during this difficult process. Kathryn and her paralegal Cindy took the time to explain each step, option, and possible obstacles along the way. If she was unavailable, her pa...ralegal Cindy was there to ease my mind as I naturally would get worried or anxious. The Tolison team worked hard to get me the best possible result with the best interest of my kids in mind. I cannot explain my gratitude for Kathryn,Cindy and team. I highly recommend them!!!! Would give more then 5 stars if i could.

Extremely Personable

Katie was incredibly amazing! I was very nervous to embark on this new chapter and she made the divorce process as painless as it could be! There were many times where she kept me calm when I would start to think about the worst thing and she would tell me to only think about what's going on right no...w and not worry about what might happen in the future. She was so kind to my kiddo and made me feel like I really mattered and my voice mattered. I would HIGHLY recommend her!
