Great Lawyer

Katie was in touch with me right away and always answered my questions quickly. Best of all, she got my case dismissed. Thanks Katie.

The best you will find

Katie was hired after court appointed attorney was failing us. She looked at our case and told us that she would be able to help us and her confidence gave us confidence in her. She worked very diligently and hard for us. She was able to come along side us explaining everything. Katie gave us hope wh...en we were down. We would recommend her to anyone at any time. We can’t praise her enough for what she did for us. Thank you Katie.

Katie quickly responded when we needed her most. She was easy to talk to and quickly answered our many questions.

Saved me just in time

Working with Katie was a miracle. Not only did she believe in me and that I needed to be treated better in my circumstance, she was FAST. She cared about my situation in spite of the fact she was very busy with trials and another case. She still took what little break time she had to make movement f...or me and saved me from a terrible situation just in time. I truly believe God put her in our path. Thank you so much Katie!!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
