Restored My Faith in Lawyers

I consulted with Kerri after having to fire my family law attorney in the middle of a spousal modification case. She restored my faith in family law attorneys--honestly! To be sure, she could have just advised me to sign on with a big retainer and continue the battle. However, she gave me sound optio...ns that came from a place of wisdom and authenticity--I felt that she truly had my best interests at the forefront. I have peace of mind after following her advice. I will recommend her to anyone in need of a family law specialist.

got my mojo back

Divorces are unfortunate, but I was incredibly fortunate have to found Kerri to be my attorney. Although my divorce was relatively low in assets, it was extremely high when it comes to the logistical complexity and emotional fraughtness of the issues to be resolved. In time I came learn that divorce...s such as mine are increasingly common as the byproduct of modern lives and families. And I could not have been in better hands. Kerri was incomparable in the depth and breadth of her knowledge and understanding of family law, her strength and finesse in legal representation, and most of all her personal character and integrity. She was as strong and eloquent in taking a stand in court (where she seemed to be universally liked), as she was patient and skillful around the negotiation table. And she worked absolutely tirelessly: even though she had many cases to deal with she always responded promptly and thoughtfully to my queries. Because of all this she successfully tackled a wide range of problems such as complex and unusual financial situations, international custody, extreme emotional and physical stress, and an erratic opposing counsel all at once. Looking back, I realize that Kerri somehow accomplished the seemingly impossible task of keeping us focused on the most critical issues at stake, while at the same time staying perfectly in tune with the various "moods" of a divorce as I experienced them. I was badly bruised at the onset of the divorce. Kerri and her team got my mojo back.
