Outstanding Professional

Katie is very very professional, knowledged in the Her area of criminal law, kept us up to date on our case, and did so in a very timely manner. As a result of Katie's knowledge, keeping the consultants to provide documentation timely, she was able to get a release from registration for me. Thank... you Katie.

5 stars

Katie is the definition of professional. She did exactly what I hired her to do in a timely manner. Her communication, follow through, knowledge and professionalism are all 5 star. Would hire her again in a heartbeat, she is truly talented at her job.

Self defense case

Ms Kaufman and Mr Anderson have done a outstanding job for me. They gave me hope where I had none! They worked hard with little to no evidence on my case but fought there best. They both gave me a second chance at life and I am very thankful for that. I was facing 17 years and now I am a free man! I... highly recommend this lady to be your lawyer. An outstanding lawyer. Thank you for all your hard work! I very much appreciate it

Best Lawyer and Life Safer

I was under a tough case. Really concerned that I could do some time. Even though my case was from 2017 and my probation was ending the month of the incident happening. I hired Katie and let me tell you she is Reliable, Smart, Strong, Friendly, Dependable, and Trustworthy She does her research. ...Is passionate about what she does and is a joy to work with. I trust her completely. Is absolutely a 100 out of 10 lawyer. She does her work and it shows. Hire Katherine Ann Kauffman Incredible!!!

Excellent

Katie was able to get my A4 dropped via a civil compromise. She was knowledgeable, prompt with answering emails, and helped guide me through a court process I was completely unfamiliar with. Katie is worth the money and she was able to get my case taken care of in a short period of time. I am quite p...leased with the outcome and ready to move forward in my life. I'll be sure to pass her name along if someone I know needs help.

Thanks so much! I was happy we could get this dismissed for you so quickly - it's not very common/standard but very nice when it all comes together like this did.

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.
