Posted by Justin | September 19, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Amazing

My ex relocated to the state of Arizona. Shortly after her relocation, my son was removed from her custody by DFS. I had to fly to Arizona from Kansas and hire an attorney (Kina Harding) to remove my son from the states custody and allow him to return with me to Kansas. Kina knew exactly what needed ...to happen, and how to go about doing it. She responded to every email and phone call almost immediately, and kept me well informed throughout the process. I was back in Kansas a week after hiring her, thank you Kina!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Kina Harding is a no nonsense, results oriented Family Law advocate. Her character is impeccable and her legal acumen is exceptional. Kina's practice areas and mine do not intersect. As such, I rely upon her when my clients have family law or domestic relations issues that I cannot address. She has served my clients and others I have referred to her in a manner that is professional and commendable. I would recommend Kina's services to anyone searching for honest, affordable, and competent representation. My name is Obie Saddler Jr. and I approve this message."

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2022.

Reprimand issued in AZ, 2022

updated on 03/30/2023

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Admonition and Probation issued in AZ, 2016

updated on 03/22/2017

An admonishment means the attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. While on probation, the State monitors the attorney's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
