Domestic violence and child support case

This case was caring on far too long due to my abuser manipulating the system he does continue to do this but Kathleen dong was very helpful with concluding what the objective was and moving on from appearing at court so I am greatly thankful for this she also has been very attentive And supportive ...when I have any questions involving my interactions with my abuser when it comes to our son

Awesome lawyer

Kathleen is an awesome lawyer. She made herself available very quickly when I reached out to her for help with my family law case. She guided me through the process and helped me get the results that I asked for. I couldn't have done it without her.

I was Lucky that she was my lawyer

She does care about clients and their children's safety and right. She has lots of knowledge and passion on DV cases. If you are a Domestic Violence Victim and looking for a lawyer, i strongly recommend Kathlee Dong. I have hired many lawyers, but she is the one who sincerely wants to help her cli...ents.

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.
