Kurt A. Smith

Where do I start?! Kurt Smith delivered a miracle for my family and I! I went to Kurt broken, frustrated, and lost. I had been victimized repeatedly by previous attorneys and refused child support and fair custody times over and over. Kurt took my family under his wing and FIXED EVERYTHING ..... He i...mmediately acted, hearing ALL my concerns. In less than 6 months, Kurt won child support and fair custody times for me and my family! Kurt's knowledge, professionalism, tenacity, and AMAZING customer service restored my family's happiness! We got our lives back!!! Kurt's office family was also AMAZING! Kelley ALWAYS answered my questions with care and sympathy, and Christie handled billing efficiently and more than fairly! Thank you Kurt and the Smith Legal Group family! You are truly a gift from God, and we appreciate you!

I hired Kurt Smith to help me with a divorce. After presenting me with several options, I decided to proceed with a contested divorce. However, after a few months, Mr. Smith held a settlement conference with me and my ex husband. During the settlement conference, which took several hours, Mr. Smit...h convinced my husband to let me have primary custody of my kids. I got more child support than I thought I would and he even got me alimony. Mr. Smith did all of this without even having to go to trial. This man can charm the skin off a snake. And he did too.

I hired Kurt Smith to help me with a child support case. My ex wife was trying to collect money from me that I didn't owe. We were divorced in another country and the child support was set, but my wife was trying to get extra money from me plus interest and penalties. I tried to go to court by mys...elf to resolve the issue, but the judge wouldn't listen to me. Thank god for Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith went to court for me and showed the judge exactly what I was trying to tell the judge, but in a way the judge could understand it. I went from owing thousands and thousands of extra dollars to owing zero extra dollars. In fact, the judge ordered my ex wife to pay my attorney's fees as a punishment for lying to the court. I have read some of the other reviews on this site and agree with some of the other reviewers. Mr. Smith is cool, calm, and confident. He has a reason to be. He knows exactly what he is doing and the judges seem to love to listen to every word he says. That is really funny because I got to sit in the back of the courtroom with Mr. Smith before my hearing. I watched the judge interact with several other attorneys. Some of the attorneys made the judge mad. Some of them it seemed like the judge didn't respect. But when Mr. Smith came to the table, the judge was all smiles. I was shocked at how comfortable Mr. Smith was with the judge and how comfortable the judge was with Mr. Smith. My ex wife's attorney didn't stand a chance. He tried to interrupt Mr. Smith several times. All Mr. Smith had to say was "Your Honor" and the judge would shut the other attorney down. This is my only case so I can only speak for my case, but I would absolutely hate to be an attorney on a case against Mr. Smith. When I first went to Mr. Smith's office, he told me he had a great relationship with most of the judges. I didn't know what he meant until we got done with my hearing. At least this judge seemed to absolutely love Mr. Smith. If he has that same relationship with all of the other judges, I can't see how this guy ever loses. Anyway, great attorney. I spent a few thousand dollars, but saved over $35,000 by hiring Mr. Smith. I can't thank him enough.

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.
