This is Who You Hire if You're Going to Trial

Amazing attorney
A few years back Katherine helped me get out of a very unfortunate situation. Throughout the time she represented me, she was very professional, aggressive and always on top of the case on my behalf. She truly cares about her clients and is willing to go the extra mile for them. She is ethical and c...
"Extraordinary feats are possible, but not with ordinary people. As attorneys, we're constantly networking. You can waste a lot of time. One of the ways I filter out the ordinary/ the average is to determine whether they do as they say. Kate offered to assist me with a very important information. I was surprised to find that she actually emailed me the info within 24 hours. Kate is very bright. She's nothing short of amazing!"
"Kate is a tenacious and fearless criminal defense attorney. She fights incredibly hard for her clients and is able to achieve amazing results for them through her zealous advocacy. I strongly endorse this lawyer."
"I had the chance to write a 995 motion under Ms. Hardie's direction while clerking for the Public Defender. She is an outstanding attorney and a thoughtful supervisor. She is respected by her colleagues as intelligent and effective."
