Great family attorney! Highly Recommend!
I was referred to Kimberly a few years ago from a friend when I was getting ready to file for divorce. From the first moment I met Kimberly I knew she was the one to represent me! She is down to earth, sincere, caring, and extremely professional. It was very emotional process for me and she did an am...

Very Helpful, patient and informative attorney.
Kimberly Brown has been the most patient attorney I have met. When I first got divorced I had an attorney that did not explain anything and just did the fast route to get me divorced. My orginal attorney did not look for the best for me. When I found Kimberly Brown and explained my frustration of how...

Unprofessional
I hired Kimberly Brown to represent me in my divorce.. She was highly combative and rude when I asked questions pertaining to my case. She verbally berated me and was highly unprofessional. I had paid her a huge retainer upfront so needless to say, I was stuck with her. She is knowlegeable, but do ...
Note to Public: This is not a client of mine. I do not charge a "huge" retainer (in fact my retainer is about 1/2 the going rate). I believe that this "anonymous" posting was posted by the same disgruntled opposing counsel that is being disciplined by the bar association for unprofessional conduct. The timing of the post conicides with a case I had with her. The general public should be aware that of the over 400 clients that I have, I have withdrawn my representation from approximaatley 6 case. The others remain clients of mine to this day. If you want to know what type of attorney I am - please contact me and I would be happy to provide a free consultation. You should obtain referrals from actual clients. Ask your friends and family for a referral. Do not rely on sites that are open to the public and allow anonymous postings. Pubic forum posts can be from disgruntled ex's, your local competition or someone who lost to you in court last week. The best way to select an attorney is to meet with them.

So thankful for Kimberly!
When I realized my marriage had fallen apart and I needed legal representation, I asked around to trusted friends and colleagues, Kimberly came highly recommended more than once. Scared, upset and hurting, I met up with her and instantly, my worries were lessened, and she gave me incredible peace...
