Amazing attorney with an incredibly positive attitude!

Kayla was such a great attorney with with an incredible knowledge of the law. My divorce was a back a forth nightmare, not the typical way things are done. Kayla was so supportive and always had the right advice I needed for the crazy way my divorce went. Kayla was always so prompt at returning ema...ils and calls. I had so many questions and concerns throughout this process and Kayla always had a great answer to help me through it. I felt like I had the best attorney that I could have ever hoped for. I was very impressed with her knowledge and the ability to remember so many details of my case. Would recommend her to anyone that wants one of the best!

You wont be disappointed!!!

Kayla took on my post divorce case and handled it like a pro! I was nervous to have a younger attorney take my case but after our initial conversation I knew I was in good hands. She is a true professional and I was amazed at how she handled opposing council and the commissioner during our hearing.... At first I will admit I felt like my case was a lost cause but after giving Kayla all of the details she presented my case to the commissioner and we had very good results in court! What impressed me the most was her ability to understand, remember, and then present the case in court. She ran over opposing council at the hearing! Her ability to focus her attention on my specific case was impressive at a time when I'm sure she had many other cases. She never left me wondering what was next and I would recommend her to anyone needing a family law attorney.

Supportive & skilled - precisely what I needed for my divorce

Here are some things that made Kayla stand out for me as my attorney through my divorce: -She is smart. She taught me so much about the divorce process and always had an answer for my questions. I felt like she kept my case two steps ahead and advocated like a boss during my hearing for a protective... order and during mediation. -She is professional. She worked well with other professionals in the process (judges, lawyers, etc.), and she always was aware of being considerate and appropriate to all involved. I really appreciated that she never spoke disrespectfully of the opposing party and focused on the case itself. -She is kind. I consulted with several lawyers and felt sort of "rubber stamped" with many saying that everything would be split 50/50 including custody and finances. After talking with Kayla for just a few minutes, I could tell that she had no intent to do that but rather wanted to make my divorce something I directed as much as possible. -She is a listener first! So many lawyers I met with talked to me more than I talked to them. Kayla is a great listener and was always client-centered. Even during a difficult spot in mediation, she made sure to listen so that I felt fully heard. -She is ethical. She was very ethical in our interactions and in her interactions with opposing party, and it was very re-assuring to know that she was in compliance with the law while still advocating for my needs through the divorce process. -She is respectful. She was always very respectful of my time and my budget. That was so helpful financially during the process as well. I could go on about how amazing she is, but you probably should just call her and find out for yourself because she's exactly the lawyer you want to hire for any family law matters.

Every step of the way

Kayla was with me every step of the way during the process of my divorce. Not only was she always on top of every bit of information, keeping track even of what others had overlooked, she went the extra mile to explain confusing aspects of my case and to calm me whenever extenuating situations arose.... I highly recommend her!

Amazingly competent, knowledgeable, attentive, and through

Kayla entered my custody case during litigation due to a conflict with my former attorney. I have to admit my case was complicated, involved a divorce and modification from another state, significant conflict between my children and opposing party, and a myriad of other issues. Kayla was honest, dili...gent, feverishly fought for my children and I, always available when I had questions, and genuinely cared about my desires and goals regarding the same. Kayla never sugar-coated possible outcomes and worked in tandem with me as opposed to dictating what I should or need to do. She respected the law, the rules associated with it, and was always kind and respectful to all parties involved even when the same was not reciprocated. I have colleagues that are family law attorneys and I want to say if you have any hesitation regarding hiring Kayla because she is "young", I assure you she was leaps and bounds above many attorneys that have been practicing for decades. Kayla has a drive like no other and believes in the practice of fearlessly fighting for the welfare of children in contentious custody battles. I cannot be more pleased with Kayla's work and I will recommend her above anyone else.
