Kurt A. Smith

I needed some family legal help with extremely shorty notice. I had no idea who to reach out to and had limited time to figure it out, which felt overwhelming and stressful. I reached out to a few recommended lawyers but got no reply in the time frame I needed, so I randomly looked up family law. ...I called the number for Smith Family Law from Google, and managed to get a free consultation over the phone. I initially spoke with Kurt's assistant who then directed me to speak with Kurt. I expressed my legal concerns and found Kurt to be thorough and direct, which I appreciated. Kurt was very honest and told me my options, including a route I could take to save myself a ton of legal fees. I was able to have Kurt draw up the legal document I needed in less than 12 hours and he had the document waiting for me first thing the following morning just as he had promised. The legal document covered everything and more, ensuring all went smoothly with my next steps. I was so pleased and wound up saving thousands of dollars by taking Kurt's advice. It was clear to me from there on that Kurt will always be a family lawyer I will trust for any future needs. Everything was easy after that. I don't know what I would have done without Kurt's professionalism, and in depth knowledge of the family legal system. The stress relief felt like a huge weight off my shoulders. I highly recommend Kurt to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable lawyer, who will get things done at the drop of a hat and cover more than you even expected. Kurt, I cant thank you enough!

I had some pretty severe legal issues and hired a big name lawyer here in town. He was worthless. Then I hired Mr. Smith. Not only did he run circles around my last lawyer, he completely finessed the system, got me minimum consequences for the issues that I had, kept me from getting into additiona...l trouble, and worked legal magic like I have never seen before. I would definitely hire Kurt Smith for any case that he was willing to take for me. He was more than just an attorney for me. He became a friend.

I referred Kurt to a friend of mine that he and his office represented very well. But my review is mainly to tell you I was in Shock and Aww when one day I had to go to Family court and didn't have a lawyer and Kurt saw me sitting there and asked what I was doing and when I explained the story he rep...resented me for free. I couldn't believe it. Never in my life have I ever seen a lawyer do what he did. I can't thank him enough for taking his busy time to help me. Something I will never forget. I want to thank you and let society know - He's a family man himself and has a heart. So when your looking for a great family lawyer I would highly recommend Kurt and his firm. They have great communication skills and stay on top of your case.

Handled an out of state child custody case for me. Was up against a prominant attorney in Las Vegas with much more experience. Mr. Smith came out on top in court 5 times in a row. Was able to restructure and renegotiate an unequitable situation where 2 other attorneys could not. I would use his firm ...again for another issue. Very personable and likeable and is clear and concise about what the options are. Reasonably priced.

Kurt and Mr. Woo both lacked empathy and understanding. I’ve paid $11k and in return they did… nothing really. Trial lasted 5 minutes! I file for joint physical and legal custody with child support being offset to determine the amount. Felt like it would be fair. Defendant does not provide a FDF. I ...kept asking Mr. Woo, attorney who works for Kurt, to push for her FDF. Before trial they asked both parties for updated FDF’s. Defendant had nothing to update to begin with and she does it AGAIN! She does not provide her FDF! What in the tarnation is going on?! I’m am paying my attorney’s so much and they can not get the other party to provide her FDF. Kurt or Mr. Woo never called to provide me with updates on my case. Only calls I received were from the assistants to collect $500 every month that was it. My son is 12 yrs old no issues in the past until recently when she finds out about her 4th and last settlement received January 2024 the other 3 she received it back in 2018. She then files for child support a way she can continue receiving income. This is because she no longer cares to work. She intentionally quits her job. Her claims were about receiving money and mine was about more time. Kurts action showed no interest. He allows the defendant be awarded primary custody when she never said I’m a bad dad and who does not care if I’m involved in our son life. I become the non-custodial parent who is now broke. I would not recommend this firm to any truly honest fathers out there. You will lose time with your child. Hiring Smith legal group not only was a mistake that I made it also made life difficult and complicated for me. When we have the Nevada state law leaning towards awarding both parents in shared joint custody of the child, no history of DV, I never seen a jail cell, no drugs involve and never neglected my boy. What did I do wrong that I Kurt could not help in being awarded joint custody?! I seriously don’t know what to say but I am disappointed, upset and feel cheated. $11k gone with negative results. During the process I was providing support but incorrectly. When I asked Mr.Wu if send her money through zelle was ok he said yes but to put child support but I decided to write her personal checks just trying to show I’m a responsible parent.I find out that it was incorrect I was misinformed.I had to go through the agency for payments. The Defendant who, taking the personal checks, had knowledge but decided to stay quiet because I now have to pay arrears paying her a second time. I have no choice but to pay. When I gained knowledge of child support i find out what I did, in the eyes of the law, is provided her with a “gift”. I did not think that my situation can get any more worse than with everything that has happened to me. IT DOES! I recently discover defendant received 4 different settlement 3 back in 2018 and the last one in 2024 and said nothing about! The settlements was from a negligence-auto case. She received in February 2018 she $40,398.50, March 2018 she received $42,096.59, May 2018 she received $12,337.92 and in January 2024 she received $76,944.30. After receiving the last settlement she intentionally quits her job! Her reason was that she was bullied. I had a feeling she wasn't being honest about it. I’m struggling and being pressured to pay support! I’m not avoiding payments just trying to finish with the arrears! Kurt and Woo has misrepresented me due to negligence and providing false or misleading information to the court that has me titled noncustodial parent. We would have known about her financial situation and seen evidence that she is currently sitting on lots of money if they did not fail to exercise the level of care that is expected of them and not lack in oversight or inadequate research. Life is more difficult for me and now broke. I have to watch the defendant get away with murder. How is this “what is best for my child” a good thing? I do not recommend Kurt to any honest parent.
