Professional, Knowledgeable, Compassionate

I hired Kim Reid to help me with Domestic Violence Protection Order. I was scared and intimated by the entire process. Kim stepped in and made the process so much easier to deal with. Without her I do not think I could have navigated such a difficult situation. After the order was entered I hired Ki...m Reid to do my divorce as well. She was so professional and her Paralegal Cat was also amazing. Very quick to respond and kept me informed of what to expect throughout the entire process. They never lost sight of the fact that even though they do this kind of work often I was overwhelmed with the process. They explained the process every step of the way. Kim was amazing. I couldn't have made it through this process without her.

Kim is an awesome and personable attorney!

I originally learned of Ms. Kim Reid through a old friend of mine. Kim is very knowledgeable in her field. She was extremely thorough on my complicated 3 year case and in the end I got the results I desperately needed. On top of that she is very personable and easy to communicate with. I have alr...eady recommended 2 friends who are currently using Kim for different types of cases than my own. I would recommend her to anyone.

Thank You, Kim . . .

My divorce was the most stressfull and frustrating event I have ever lived through. My ex was bound and determined to completely disable and discredit me. Kim was there for me at every turn. Not only did she represent me fairly and squarely at court but followed up on everything I asked for. Ther...e were times when I was hitting rock bottom but she was there with the human touch that is quite often missing in attorney-client relationships. She assured me that life would go on regardless of the result. She didn't paint a rosy picture for me, but offered the clear facts and her personal advice. It was hard to take but, in the end, she was right on the target. I lost a lot . . . but that was inevitable -- I didn't have the money to fight it! Kim assured me that there was more to the battle than winning possession or investments or security. She convinced me that my life would go on with the settlement that was offered and that I would actually come out the winner -- I just had to be patient and believe in the process. She was right . . . three months down the line since the divorce was finalized, I have a new home, a new car, and my savings aren't completely at drop bottom. It could have been worse if I had followed my instincts to fight to the death. Thank you, Kim, and your wonderful assistant, Cheryl, for all the support and professional representation through this ordeal. I am happy and I am relieved and I am glad that I hired the two of you to assist me with my divorce. Hopefully, I won't need your services again, but if I ever do, I'll be back. I can attest to your honesty and to your professionalism and to your straight forward and upfront advice. Life isn't always a bed of roses, that's for sure . . . and sometimes when we are in difficult situations, that's all we want to see because we've been dealt such hard blows. Being able to explain the reality of the situation and to guide me through the dark times was key to my coming through the other end. Every time I lock the door behind me when I come home now, I no longer feel the strain of a bad marriage . . . my life looks a little different but that's because I gave up a lot to gain a lot more . . . and that was in large part due to you. I will always remember you pulling me through. Thank you, Kim!

Worth EVERY Penny!

I was caught up in the family law system for a total of 14 years. In the past, I felt all my money went to hearing being continued, postponed, and sent to mediation.-never any resolve. Ms. Reid put an end to all the non-sense and our family has had closure for 3 years. She is the most compassiona...te attorney I have ever retained. She listened, asked appropriate questions, and what I liked best is that if I was requesting something she thought was not appropriate she told me and explained why. She had my best interests in mind. Not to mention she took the bull by the horns and gave my family the closure we longed for.
