Kathleen Bakergumprecht-Davies

Horrible from the beginning. Had to supply the same information multiple times. Finally asked to sign papers over a year after i went to court and the papers still haven't been filed with the courts 2 months after signing. The most ridiculous bill i've ever paid, I could've bought a brand new car.... Calling her a lawyer or her employees "support staff" is the biggest joke i've ever heard. She should be disbarred for her lack of legal work.

I hope someone reads this and saves money, even if I can help just one person by reading this and NOT hiring her maybe it'll do some good. Kathleen and her staff are so incompetent and expensive. My case should have been open and shut but thanks to this lawyer it dragged out a year and she knew what ...to do to get the most $$ out of me possible. She saw me coming a mile away. Interview a couple lawyers and you will see she is full of it. I could have got a better lawyer a lot cheaper. Not only is she ridiculously expensive I caught her lying to me multiple times, I felt like I was fighting 2 lawyers the whole case. Divorce was already stressful but this just set it over the edge. I have never rated anything in my life and am not getting anything out this so if you read this please please please take my rating into consideration and save yourself!!!!

I highly recommend Ms. Bakergumprecht-Davies lives up to her reputation as a brilliant litigator, with the ability to quote case law and family law section codes off the top of her head. If you have a complicated family law issue that requires an EXPERIENCED litigator - you really could do no bet...ter! She is thoughtful and well respected by her peers and the legal community. Her office is not always the most organized, timely in returning phone calls or paperwork, and proofing their work. However, being your own advocate, keeping copies of everything, and insisting on proof reading anything before submission solves all of that. These people, while nice, are not your friends or your therapist - they are your lawyers and you should use them as such. Do your job as a client to make their job as your lawyer as easy as possible. I felt her billing was fair, given her expertise.

Kathleen and her support people were amazing. When we got our final bill we thought there might have been a mistake, so we paid it and left as quick as possible. She was so obviously respected by the other parties attorney that we came out with the best possible deal, we wouldn't have even asked fo...r what we got, it was that good and we're on the Fraternal side, that never happens!
