Kate Elizabeth Gillespie

I hired Kate after much frustration with my first lawyer, who is a terrible human being, knows nothing about your case, has no strategy in place and wants nothing but your money. Kate is the exact opposite: she knows your case, cares about you, responds in time to answer your questions, advises you o...n all aspects related to navigating your life during a nasty divorce. When you find yourself in the unfortunate position to have to fight for your life and fend off the constant attacks in court, Kate is there, as a great human being and friend first and then a very competent lawyer, to hold your hands and escort you to safety. Forever grateful!

From the first meeting I had with Kate, I knew she was both knowledgeable and professional and not only helped to clarify the process going forward and all options, she also was kind and reassured me, not only with her confidence, but her kindness. Her mediation skills were excellent and we were abl...e to settle my divorce case without going to court. Kate's communication was excellent. When dealing with opposing council she was direct and assertive when needed. She has a calm demeanor that helps her clients during a stressful process. Kate is an excellent attorney!

Kate Gillespie is a very talented attorney and an expert in all matters pertaining to family law. I hired Kate three years ago when I was unable to get a custody agreement from my ex-wife and Kate worked diligently and effectively to accomplish my goals of obtaining equal custody of my children and ...a fair support order from the Court. Over the past few years, Kate has defended me on several additional matters against my ex-wife and has prevailed on each one through her skills and honesty. Without her hard work, determination and kindness I would not have equal custody of my children. Kate charges market fees for her services and as a client I always felt she was available and responsive. Her attention to detail, counsel and advice on tactics and strategy are a great value for a client seeking either a mediated settlement or to prevail on a motion before a family court judge. Kate has done so much for my family, I would highly recommend Kate to any person who needs family law representation without hesitation.

I was referred to Kate and immediately knew I liked her! Extremely professional and knowledgeable yet super easy to relate to and very KIND! My husband and I were divorcing after almost 24 years of marriage and I was in the darkest place imaginable. It was the worst time in my life and she made me ...feel like someone was on my team and promised "we" would get through this... and I did, thanks to Kate. I never felt alone. I always felt better and confident in this process after speaking with her. She always assured me I was going to be okay... I was and I am! I'm very foreign to the legal world and she held my hand every step of the way. Often having to repeat and explain to me in ways that I could understand. This was a very emotional time for me and she had the patience of a Saint! Believe when I say she knows her stuff! Very powerful with a strong punch but in such a caring way. There is no doubt I could have gotten through this without her, I would recommend her to anyone! She made a horrible time much easier. I cried hugging her as we left our last and final meeting. Not sure because we were done and she did an AMAZING job or because i felt like I made a friend... I think it was both!!! I can't thank her enough! Very proud to say I know such an INCREDIBLE person/attorney!!

I hired Kate at probably the worst time in my life. My husband had left me and my kids in a horrible position. Kate was understanding and she helped me through everything. She talked me through each step and gave me the pros and cons of each choice I made. I felt confident with Kate by my side. ...And, I'm happy to say -- we made it! I am officially divorced and retained custody of my kids. She is the best, and I would recommend her to anyone. In fact -- I have! She is now helping a co-worker, who has the same reviews as I do. Great lawyer.
