Legal Separation Nightmare

I obtained a legal separation from my husband. We agreed on specific financial terms that needed to be met for a specific amount of time. A few years later, my husband reneged on the terms of our Separation Agreement. That’s when I hired Smith Legal Group. Attorney Smith jumped on my case immediate...ly and got the court to enforce the original agreement. My husband hired an attorney to try to invalidate the agreement. I was scared to death. But Attorney Smith was able to calm me down and walk me through the claims made by my husband and how the court was likely to view and treat those claims. Turns out, Attorney Smith didn’t miss a trick. He wad exactly right about what opposing counsel was trying to do and what to do about it. The end result is that my Decree was enforced and I even got my ex to pay my attorneys fees. I couldn’t have asked for a better result.

Stellar Representation at Reasonable Pricing

So far Kurt & his team have been doing a great job with their preparation & representation. I can sleep a lot easier now knowing that he's not only an expert and a true artist in his craft, but he's also a realist and will not make promises he can't keep or speculate on what a judge might do...and he... will help keep your focus on what's right for your case & your family. I think a few of the bad reviews I've seen are pure sour grapes where people didn't pay for his well-earned services or can't understand a successful lawyer like his can't always get back to you at the drop of a dime any time you want, or simply don't follow his advice and it costs them. Or sensitive personalities who don't like hearing his frank & blunt candor. I DO appreciate it, because it helps ME. Thank you Kurt. Kurt doesn't yell, hot-dog & grand-stand like these typical lawyers. He is above that and it shows that he's earned the respect of lawyers & judges alike. He's calm, cool, collected -- yet will represent with the best of them. I'm so grateful that Kurt Smith & his team were referred to me. KURT, KELLEY, PATTIE & EVERYONE ELSE -- Thank you from the very bottom of my heart for your stellar help so far. These cases can be very ugly and hurtful as I have learned and he's been the beacon of hope for moving towards what's right for my family, while keeping it real. To the reviewer that complained that he yawned during consultation -- this man just worked on my response that we were forced to file at the last minute all the way to 3:43am this morning, and still showed up at 9am hearing with me and met w/ me later inpromptu when I dropped in his office @ 5pm the same day. I can certainly be empathetic if he's yawning or tired...he's a workaholic machine with many complicated cases, yet WORTH EVERY PENNY IF YOU ARE SERIOUS ABOUT PROTECTING YOUR FAMILY. His transparent rates on the billing statements are very fair in my opinion. They do NOT nickel and dime you and offer flat-fee retainer agreements which can actually save you a ton of money while getting amazing representation. A true good businessman who's compassionate and employs like-minded ppl. Kurt & team have earned a family lawyer from us for life and I I am beyond grateful for his help and very hopeful for the future of my loved ones.

Quick and Easy

Mr. Smith is a rock star. He also has a great team. I hired Mr. Smith to get me divorced. I got a great job offer in Canada and had to leave the country. My wife had a criminal record and could not join me. Mr. Smith made sure that everything was handled with the court so that I could accept the... job in Canada and not worry about what was going on here with my ex. Time was of the essence for me. I told him to contact me if there was a problem, no matter what time. A couple of times I got emails from him at like 2 or 3 in the morning. But he got the job done and I got the job I was looking for. I don't plan on getting married again any time soon. But I would definitely use Smith Legal Group for any legal need I had in the future.

Fantastic Attorney!

I hired Kurt Smith to help me get custody of my children. I live out of state and was getting reports that my children were getting into trouble. Mr. Smith and his team were amazing. They got right to work on my case, got me an emergency hearing, and got the judge to transfer custody right away ev...en before the trial. A trial was set for later that summer, but thanks to Mr. Smith's work, we were able to completely resolve the case without a trial. Mr. Smith saved me thousands. If you're looking for a great attorney that will get right to work on your case AND win, you have come to the right place.

The BEST lawyer EVER!

I cant say enough good things about Kurt Smith and his legal team at Smith Legal Group! I went through a very painful divorce with a TON of litigation. Kurt was with me every step of the way. He was amazing before all THREE judges I ended up appearing before, and out of the 5+ times we were in court... I won every single time. He was always on top of things, proactively calling me when something was up. And he was always there any time I had questions, taking his time to explain things to me in a way I could easily understand. I have only the best things to say about Kurt. He had been an amazing lawyer for me and a good friend. SO glad I found him. Thank you Smith Legal Group!
