Kate M Forrest

Kate represented me during a contentious parenting plan case that involved an out of state parent. My child's well being was her number one priority throughout the entire process. Her caring, down to earth, and respectful demeanor helped to make an extreamly stressful event something I could bear. ...She gave me options every step of the way. The case went to trial where she efficiently and effectively advocated for the protections I was seeking. Thanks to her hard work and care, the court's decision supported what I wanted for my child. I was beyond blessed to have her by my side.

Ms. Kate Forrest is an extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, and detail oriented attorney! On day one of the free consultation I knew that Ms. Forrest was the right attorney for me. Ms. Forest, never rushed me during my meeting times or phone calls. Kate took my case and its unique needs and made s...ure all my future needs would be meet. I was not just a number or put into a cookie cutter case load! Kate would always ask how I was doing and was I ready emotionally to move forward each step of the way. Her concern that I always physically safe this speaks to her compassionate, and supportive nature. She was always accessible by email and got back to me to answer any questions, concerns, or problems that came up suddenly. Also, Kate is a very cost-effective attorney. She would explain to me different was I could save money during my case. I feel Ms. Forest is not a wasteful attorney just trying to run up attorney cost. Kate is a very knowledgeable, kind, patient, and supportive attorney! I know you don’t find that combination very often!! It was so nice to know when I would make an emotional decision that may not benefit me and my case Ms. Forrest would kindly, and factually explain the law and facts to me and let me make the final decision after I had time to think about it. I was in a long-term marriage and after reviewing my case Ms. Forrest and I made the decision a legal separation would benefit me better than divorce. Without her extensive knowledge of family law, I would not have received the settlement that I have today. I am very grateful and appreciative for Kate’s support throughout my case! Ms. Forrest is still working on my case and will keep in touch with me when settlement items are due. She doesn’t just settle the case and leave you hanging not knowing what to do next. She follows through with every detail of the case. Another, quality I apricated was her willingness to help me with other resources I needed in other areas of my life. She really cares about her clients! I hope this review helps you to go and meet Ms. Kate Forrest I know you will not be disappointed!

I retained Kate back in 2013 to deal with my second parent adoption/de facto parentage. As an LGBT military service member, it has been a legal nightmare to ensure that my rights were secured. Yesterday, I became a legal parent to my 5 year old son and could not have done it without Kate. I have b...een in the legal field for almost 20 years and seen hundreds of lawyers in and out of court. Kate is extremely competent and compassionate. As a sole practitioner, she is committed to her clients, honest and will fight for you until the end. If you are reading this, you're probably like me when I was searching for representation to trust while in a vulnerable state. You should look no further - I would highly recommend her to my friends and family for any family law issue.

I had a really rough, drawn out divorce and my ex is use to winning, she is a commander for the police force, and she had the money for an outrageously expensive lawyer that used every dirty trick in the book to win. The one mistake her lawyer made was to underestimate my Lawyer's knowledge of the l...aw and her intelligence. She caught him trying to file a modification without the proper filing and argued that point, so that intimately I won my last case! Honestly, intelligence, and goodness prevailed. She is a lawyer who gives your case her all no matter who she is up against!
