Kimberly D Brown

Kimberly was my attorney for my long and difficult divorce. Though I had been a stay at home mother for 17 years, my ex didn't seem to think I deserved a fair settlement and insisted on taking me to trial - twice - and refused arbitration. Kimberly helped me handle the emotional challenges of dealing... with a narcissist who harassed me over the year-and-a-half it took to get my divorce finalized and she is an extremely competent lawyer, both in dealing with my ex's attorney, the mediators and experts we worked with along the way, in the courtroom during both trials and, ultimately, during settlement negotiations. I was fortunate enough to have a judge who saw that there was no reason to be in trial for my divorce (again, not kidding when I say my ex demanded we go to trial in his attempt to prove he made less money than his W2 said) and told Kimberly and my ex's lawyer to mediate and settle outside the courtroom - where Kimberly skillfully (and with integrity) handled the negotiations until we reached a settlement agreement. She responded to motion after motion from my ex's attorney and is a skilled writer. She powerfully and succinctly makes her points with grace. She is also a direct and clear communicator when negotiating and working with others. When working through issues she processes so quickly that I frequently had to catch up to follower her thinking and yet she had the patience to explain her thought process when I asked her to. I'm not a religious person - and I feel truly blessed to have had her as my attorney. She was exactly the type of lawyer that I needed. Compassionate, caring and competent.

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."
