Case Dismissed

Kathleen is an effective lawyer and she will be 100% real with you about your legal options from the get go. Her paralegal Bobbie is also very nice and very knowledgeable. Kathleen was able to get my case dismissed after I successfully completed a mental health diversion program which she had recomme...nded to me when we first talked. Although the diversion process took longer than I wanted too I’m glad that it ended in a dismissal. I felt that I was adequately represented and got my moneys worth. The best part was that I didn’t have to appear in court at all except once virtually for a zoom meeting for the arraignment. Hopefully you won’t have to be in a position where you need a lawyer but if you do and you’re in Humboldt County call Kathleen Bryson you won’t regret it.

Excellent Attorney

Kathleen Bryson is a kind, compassionate person and an excellent Attorney. We are from the Michigan and our son was arrested in California. We were not able to be there for him due to the pandemic, forest fires and the cost of traveling across the country. Kathleen went out of her way to help our son... through a very difficult time. She kept us informed and treated us with respect and consideration. We appreciate all of her time and work on behalf of our son. We highly recommend Kathleen Bryson to anyone seeking an excellent Attorney. Thank you again Kathleen.

Wonderful Experience!

From the time I walked into Kathleen's office with a hundred different questions, she was calm, collected and knowledgeable. Both Kathleen and Bobbie were punctual and quick to return my calls. They gave me clear information and answers that made me feel so much more confident as I faced down three ...separate charges. I am happy to report that three felonies have become a single misdemeanor, and I will soon be able to regain a clean record. This was absolutely money well spent!

Edward 5-9-20

I'm a disabled combat veteran who suffers from pretty bad PTSD. The police were called to my home late at night because I was yelling and shouting. Long story, short... I was arrested for a felony domestic violence and child endangerment. I had neither assaulted anyone or endangered anyone, especiall...y my children. I have never been in any legal trouble...ever, yet it was a felony. I was scared and confused....until I met Kathleen and instantly I got a feeling that everything would be ok. She took charge and began pressuring the DA to reduce my felony to a misdemeanor. Even during the height of the covid-19 outbreak she put her health at risk rolled up her sleeves and got my bogus case thrown out.... No criminal record still... I thank you Kathleen and my family thanks you. Hope I never need a lawyer again but if I do it's no question who it would be.

  • 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.
