Shelly Kay Perkins

I had Ms. Perkins for my divorce case. She comes across as a tough and knowledgeable attorney. But in reality she is a good sales person. When it came to handling my case, she has done some very serious mistakes that ultimately cost me a lot more money and I lost on those issues. I had to fire Ms. P...erkins after a few months of working with her and that was a smart decision I have made. If I were looking for a divorce attorney now, I would keep looking. If you don't want costly mistakes made in your case, keep looking for a different attorney.

Shelly was hired to represent my daughter and I in a hostile child visitation case. My first visit with Shelly was timely and prevented a possible child abduction by the non-custodial parent. Her knowledge and compassion eased our stress and we felt safe knowing that we finally had an attorney who ...cared and one who was willing to fight for us. She is a tough attorney who isn't intimidated. She gave us sound advice that has helped us maintain civil communication between all parties in our case. When we went to court, Shelly was well prepared and negotiated so well that we all came to an agreement without having to take the stand. Shelly never made us feel like we were bothering her with our questions and I have learned a lot because of her patience. I continue to hold a retainer with her and refer her to my friends and colleges, all of which are extremely happy with her services.

After 23 years of marriage this was my first and only divorce and need for an attorney. From my first consultation Shelly gave me very good advice about my rights to marital assests and posessions. There were times the unknown would drive me to the brink of insanity, and Shelly would calm me down and... tell me what to expect. At times just when I thought I couldnt take anymore harrassment and slander from the other attorney she would jump in with an email to stop them and I would feel instant relief. She is sooo good. I googled what to look for in a good divorce attorney and what to expect from one and she fit the bill from beginning to end. Shelly worked towards mediation and and out of court settlement when that was not recieved by the other side, she prepared her witnesses and I feel presented present such a strong well put together case. She was so much more professional than the first attorney and just better prepared and represented me way better than the second attorney hired by th other side. After the judges award, Shelly counciled me in making a deal to change some of the judges rulings to better serve me in the long run. I have reccomended her to several friends and family member.
