Terrible family lawyer

Had Kelsey had as our lawyer in family court last year. After spending over 60k to get absolutely nothing after almost a year in court. We wasted time & money on a lawyer who seemed to be fighting for the opposite team. Do not waste your time or money. She had no understanding of our finances or trie...d to understand. Had to bring another lawyer in on our dime. Don’t make the same mistake we did.

Excellent work

I chose Lutz Law to assist me on a case with my daughter’s dad who has substance abuse issues and history of neglect. I couldn’t have chosen a better law firm. I had the pleasure of working with David Lutz for the start of my case and he was very attentive to my concerns and prompt with responses. Wh...en Mr. Lutz was unable to continue my case he passed my case along to Kelsey Morfitt. I couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer. The entire firm seems to have rockstars as lawyers. Kelsey was extremely responsive, considerate, professional and did an amazing job considering the time she had on my case. I could tell she reviewed my case thoroughly and was on it without me having to reach out. My case was out of THURSTON county. This was the most difficult two years, but I was able to stay strong through the support of Lutz Law. I want to thank their team and paralegals for never neglecting me or my daughter. A guardian ad litem was assigned and I was able through the help of this law firm ensure my daughters safety through supervised visits. I never felt like they were only about money which is what I hear often about attorney’s. They worked with me and I feel so blessed that not once did their professionalism or diligence ever waiver. I couldn’t recommend a better firm to represent families when it comes to such a stressful event. I highly recommend Lutz Law. I highly recommend Kelsey Morfitt as she was so knowledgeable and made herself available whenever I had questions that needed answers. David Lutz I would also like to recommend and thank for being such an amazing help when I felt helpless as we began that journey. Thank you Lutz Law!

Always Patient and Willing To Put Her Client First Over Money

Kelsey was such a huge help during my divorce. Not only did she help me receive what I needed in terms of alimony and military retirement, but she also helped me cope through the trauma from the divorce. Also she doesn't try to give false hope like other lawyers, she clearly states the facts of your ...case and what she can do for you. She was always patient with me and even found ways to where I would be able to save on certain costs while giving me as much help as I needed. I highly recommend Kelsey for those who not only need help with the legal problems they face, but also for the mental struggles that comes with it. She's humble, has integrity in a time where some lawyers look out for their best interests instead of looking out for their client, and is caring enough to check up on me even after the case is done. Thank you so much Kelsey!

Highly recommend!

Highly recommend! I contacted Ms. Kelsey Morfitt with a very emergency situation I was in, and I am so glad that I did. Kelsey was kind, knowledgeable, and on point. I was impressed with her quick grasp of the situation and sincere care. She is calm, but the professional skill of her exerts power a...nd is sharp like a two-edged sword, and is able to discern thoughts and intentions of the heart. I'm very thankful to Kelsey, Cassandra and the team of Lutz and Associates, P.S.  I was fighting a giant liar and they had my back..my child is in Safe right now...all thanks to them.
