Kimberly was my voice in court

Kimberly gave me a voice in court after years of uncertainty, loss, and frustration. I felt like I had an ally in a world where it feels like everything goes against fathers. I highly recommend working with Kimberly.

Speechless

I consulted with Kimberly Brown and was shocked by what I encountered. She is rude, unnecessarily combative, and focuses on going to battle; not finding a solution that's conducive to all parties involved. I could not get her to focus on anything other than being "out to get" my soon to be ex-husband.... Sure I can't stand the guy but we still have kids to raise together. Shouldn't we focus on them? Kimberly's only concern is going after people, not doing what will work best in the long run. I'm not someone who typically posts on these sites but was so taken aback by her lack of professionalism and open hostility that I had to say something. She's affordable but gives meaning to the term, "you get what you pay for."

Attorney's dont have an agenda for your life. There would be no reason for any attorney to be "out to get" anyone's soon to be Ex. No one wants a court battle (or the mountains of paper work necessary to engage it) unless absolutely necessary. If I was told a story that led me to believe that a potential client and the children were in need of protection and support then I'm going to recommend immediation court action. If I heard a story that lead me to believe that I am working with one half of 2 mature and reasonable adults that have mutually deciding to part ways - then my recommendation would focus on non-litigation means of resolution. My recommendations are based soley on the information I receive from the client. Attorneys aren't out to "get" anyone. We just do the paperwork and make the arguments based on the information that the client provides. Oh...and I'm not apologizing for making my services "affordable". I'm an attorney - not a brain surgeon.

Tenacity At Its Best

I have now known Kimberly and hired her over six years ago. I was getting ready to file for divorce at the time from my now ex-wife and I was shopping around for a lawyer. Being a man it was my intention not to become the typical ex-husband that winds up losing custody of his children, paying child s...upport and alimony all because my ex-wife woke up one day and decided she didn't like being married to me yet she would not divorce me nor would she work on repairing the marriage as well, finally I said enough is enough so I initiated the divorce. What I was looking for in a lawyer was one that would fight for me in the event things got messy and we had to go to court; I wanted the "big guns" in reserve if ever needed. I spoke to several lawyers and in the end Kimberly was what I was looking for. Being from east coast of the U.S., I am use to people telling me like it is--good or bad, also I am use to people being “aggressive” and by that I mean they do not back down and do what they have to in life for themselves or others in order to achieve a specific goal. After talking to several lawyers Kimberly was the one that stood out and met my criteria. Kimberly has always been up front with me and honest, her fees were always less than that of any other lawyer that I had talked to, she never nickeled and dimed me to death like some lawyers do, they charge you for every little thing, in fact we still keep in touch and over the years she has looked at documents and made some corrections for me, has given me advice and never has asked for a single penny. In the end everything was settled in a civilized manner and although the ex and I have joint custody of the children I was listed as the “primary” parent. If you want someone who will have your back Kimberly is the one to hire. Kimberly will always be my lawyer regarding family matters but I also consider her a friend.

best of the best!

When I was referred to Kimberly brown by a coworker after telling him about how brutal my divorce was going he told me how Kimberly resolved his never-ending divorce.I called her and met with her quick. I had already been engaged in my divorce for over 3 years and after the repeated cps claims I felt... that it was never going to end.she took charge and took care of everything. Kimberly was very clear about the strategy she would follow and kept me completely involved in the process. She helped me save money where she could when I was having trouble.when even my guardian adliedemam was frustrated with all of repeated false allegations she pushed back. The day Kimberly forced mediation so the couldn't hide anymore was like a massive weight lifted of of my shoulders. When I heard the words binding arbitration and a resolution was agreed (the ex left in tears )I never felt so great! I have a great parenting plan and the ex and I are done with the war! I Thank you Kimberly!

Do not Trust this Lawyer! She is not Professional in the Court House nor with her Clients!

Kimberly Brown needs to respect her clients and her adversary. As she tried to help me with my case in court for kids, she started yelling and interrupting the commissioner. I personally thought she has issues either at home or with her practice. Thank gawed the commissioner put Kimberly Brown in p...lace. Its hard to get a hold of her, and she loses cases after cases as I was told and looking at blogs and tweets. She was rude to her adversary talking back and putting them down. I could never hire her as a Lawyer. She made me lie in Court to make the other party to look bad for her to win her case. Pay extra for a professional Lawyer, Please! You will reap benefits in the long run for paying extra....

Each time I am advised by a peer or actual client that there is a negative review on this site - I am contiually perplexed by who writes these and the "checks and balances" on this site to ensure that these are written by actual clients and are listed for the right person. The above person is not a client of mine. I acutally believe that this review as well as the one below are written by an attorney who was previous counsel who I reproted to the WSBA and who is currently facing disciplinary actions. The only way you will actually know whether an attorney is right for you is to go meet with them and speak with clients that they actually represent.
