Kelly was Amazing

"I can't say enough good things about working with Kelly Robbins during my divorce. From the very start, Kelly brought a level of compassion and understanding that truly made a difficult process feel more manageable. She was not only professional and knowledgeable, but also genuinely caring. Kelly li...stened to my concerns, offered thoughtful guidance, and always made sure I felt heard and supported. What truly stood out was how incredibly effective she was in dealing with a very difficult opposing attorney and my ex-partner. Kelly navigated potentially volatile situations with remarkable calm and skill, diffusing tension and guiding everything toward a positive resolution for everyone involved. I’m deeply grateful for her expertise and her kindness through it all. If you’re looking for someone who brings both heart and skill to the table, I wholeheartedly recommend Kelly."

Very negative experience.

Kelly was highly recommended to me by someone I trusted. My experience was awful and very expensive. She was arrogant, dismissive of questions, didn't know the judge at all (I did more research than she did), basically ignored my case until I hounded her office regularly (this is after my paying he...r retainer and being given timelines that were regularly blown) and, frankly, when we got to court, didn't seem to know what she was doing. We had two days of long cause hearing scheduled, and I ended our engagement after the first day. There was no time for me to represent myself in the second day of hearing. The judge spent the entire time frustrated with her, and I clearly saw why. Finally, I spent an extraordinary amount of money going back and forth on documents and correcting key details multiple times that I had communicated, again, multiple times, prior to going to court. In the end, my ex won and I was forced to settle. My child is the one who is negatively impacted. I would never recommend this firm.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
