If only more lawyers were like Kayla!

Kayla is competent, kind and honest. What else could you ask for in a lawyer. If you read through her reviews they are almost all five stars for a reason. When I first saw all the five star reviews I thought they might be fake, but after working with Kayla I can tell you they are not. Kayla works inc...redibly hard and like many other people have mentioned she makes herself available. On average I probably only had to wait 2 to 3 days for a response. If it ever took longer it was because she was either in mediation or trial. Kayla even made time to talk to me over the phone when realistically we could have completed what we needed over email. If I remember correctly, 95% of Kayla's clients settle in mediation and my case settled in one mediation session. Had I hired any other lawyer I doubt that settling in one mediation session would have been possible. Working with Kayla was a very positive experience for me. Not only is she very easy to work with but she also is a very kind and carrying person. Divorce is such a stressful time and Kayla is very sensitive to your needs. She took the time to help comfort me and help me feel good about the decisions I was making. She is so competent that this comes easily and naturally for her. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better lawyer!

Some heroes don't need capes...

Though my case was daunting, complex and intense, Kayla Quam was only incredible. From the start through the very end, she and her amazing team exhibited unparalleled dedication to the law and commitment to me as her client. Kayla operates with the highest level of integrity, and communicates with a ...warmth and professionalism that is commonly wanting among society at large. She brings her best to her clients…and she literally worked miracles. Things I specifically appreciated about Kayla were her objectivity in keeping me focused on the things that matter, not letting me get sidetracked and into the weeds or lost in the emotion of the situation. She demonstrated sensitivity to the intricacies of my situation, and continually focused on how to best move forward. She has a vast knowledge of the law, a willingness to do whatever was possible within the law to bring about the desired results, and she stays calm under pressure, is never inflammatory, but absolutely shows up with power and confidence in all legal proceedings. She is a fierce and mighty force to recon with in court. My case was resolved in the most astonishing way imaginable because of her, and I will be forever grateful that I chose Kayla Quam to represent me. She is everything you would want in a lawyer.

You definitely want Kayla to represent you!

Kayla is hands down the best lawyer I have worked with. I have a fairly complex case, including domestic violence and a protective order, and I knew that I needed someone who could represent me well in those areas. She also came referred from another attorney in the field, as someone highly skilled i...n this area of expertise and is well respected and trusted. She was just what I needed. She is kind, passionate, and absolutely cares about her clients. She is a little more expensive than an attorney I used to work with, but worth every dollar. She is fair and open on her bills, going over in detail to make sure I felt each charge that came through was fair and well explained. I thank my lucky stars that I found Kayla! She will work hard to represent you and is honest with outcomes and reality of the process with what to expect. She worked extra hard to represent me and I had the best outcome in my case because she was on my side.

The Best

Kayla came highly recommended to me and I am highly recommending her to anyone seeking a well knowledgeable lawyer. What I admired most about her was that I was never kept in the dark. She explained every step of my divorce process. From the beginning she told me what the outcome would be and I was... never disappointed. At one point in the process I was ready to give up because of the negative stuff my now ex-husband was throwing at me, I was happy I told her my feelings. Kayla was not only my lawyer at that point but became my counselor. She was not all about the money but more about getting me what I rightfully deserve. Thank you Kayla and I wish for you all the best in the future.

Kayla was excellent to work with. My divorce was a hectic time in my life and it felt like everything was a maelstrom of events, taking care of my kids, work, and emotions that, at the time, were all overbearing to deal with. Kayla gave me excellent consultation initially, and, after I got advice fro...m my inner circles, I chose to move forward with hiring her to handle my divorce case. She made things very easy. I could tell she listened and really seemed to get a feel for what I wanted out of the divorce along with being sympathetic and understanding toward what drove the divorce in the first place. She gave me solid advice on what to expect, what was reasonable, and what to do. Most importantly for me, she and her team were able to answer the ever-so-frequent question of "What do I have to do next". With everything going on, that simplified the divorce process for me to the point that I never had more than one to-do item at a time for this process. Fortunately, my case never went to court, but interacting with the Mediator, she was friendly and warm. She kept me in the loop toward what they had discussed and had great advice in each of our counter offers. I feel that appointment went as close to reasonably best-case-scenario for my divorce and I believe it was her expertise, knowledge of various options, etc. that led us to the conclusion we came to. Hiring Kayla to handle my divorce was such a great decision. There was a trove of knowledge and experience with which I could answer any number of my, what felt like stupid questions. She was clear and consise on all points of advice, but also on billing and how I would be charged for her time (and how to maximize that). I truly felt that Kayla was fighting for me in this case. Not for a client or a paycheck, but the me she got to know and work with. I am ever appreciative of her help and how this difficult and complex time and my life was eased so much by having her on my side. Thank you Kayla!
