He really cares!

I'm really shocked to read the bad reviews because Kelso is absolutely the most personable friendly caring lawyer I have ever met. He even gives you his personal cell phone number so you can call him at home! Not only does he care, he really knows what he is doing. Highly recommended!

THANK GOODNESS FOR KELSO LINDSAY

The hospitality and warmth provided by Kelso and all the paralegals was top notch. I was overwhelmed with the support and patience from everyone. My ex-husband was a bully, I was afraid and was unsure what to do. Kelso stood by me and provided advice which helped me get out of my situation. My wish i...s that, if you feel stuck in a marriage the Advocacy Law Center is patient and professional, make sure you contact them. They will get you through your circumstance. It is because of the Advocacy Law Center, that I now have a new lease on life. I am not stuck in an unhealthy environment. Whilst I do not wish for people to go through divorces, if you do need a divorce lawyer, make sure you see Kelso at the Advocacy Law Center.

"Kelso Lindsay is an excellent attorney who deeply cares for the needs and concerns of his clients. He is very intelligent, outgoing, and is an outstanding litigator. I have personally observed his success both in the courtroom and in his day-to-day practice, working with clients, opposing counsel, and the opposing party to achieve very positive results for his clients. I endorse this lawyer and would refer my friends and family to him."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"As opposing counsel on a matter, it was a pleasure to work with Mr. Lindsay. While of course working as a vigorous advocate for his clients, Mr. Lindsay exhibited high standards of ethics and professional courtesy throughout our case, and was willing to work to a successful resolution in mediation rather than trial. It was a pleasure working with him."

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.
