Kate Elizabeth Gillespie

I consulted with Ms, Gillespie for a situation where I had been living with an individual for 14 years. There had been admitted infidelities by him and possible health implications. There were also financial dealings that were worrisome. She was outstanding in her empathy toward my situation. ... I felt like I was listened to! She advised me of the health risks and to take the necessary tests to give me peace of mind. She advised me to stop all communication with him so that I would not be swayed by him and go back to more abuse by him. Ms. Gillespie is an astute, highly qualified attorney who knows human behavior and will work so that an individual will not only get excellent legal help but psychological guidance in dealing with very difficult and draining situations. I highly recommend her. She really was an awesome representative for my situation.

My request to divorce occurred within a heated domestic situation. After removing myself from the immediate danger I called my sister. My sister is an attorney but does not practice family law and she selected Kate through her reputation and colleague recommendations. Together we called Kate and s...he walked us through all of our next steps. I had no idea what to do and neither did my sister, parents, nor friends. Family and friends are essential for support, but they are not equipped for the legal complexities and unpredictability of divorce. Kate was direct and confident in what specifically needed to be done to secure my safety and initiate my legal footing. My whole life was uprooted during this time and I needed someone who was prepared to handle all of the legal matters and emotional distress associated with the splitting of a 19 year relationship. Processing the emotional toll, dealing with the uncertainty of the future, all while continuing to work was overwhelming. I couldn’t comprehend the actions taken against me. Kate dealt with the threats, random demands, and protected me financially, legally, and emotionally. My trust and confidence in her got me through this crisis
