Finding relief and confidence in an attorney.

I wanted a strong, capable, and experienced attorney to represent me. Finding Kim was a huge relief. She was quick to grasp my situation, as well as my desire for fair and equitable resolution. She made sure I understood the laws, the local norms, and the attitudes found in the courts. Kim kept me ...informed of the process and progress every step of the way, educating me on various aspects to ensure I was able to make informed decisions. At the same time, I never felt like she was seeking to add unnecessary billable time. I found her rates very reasonable, without any hidden surprises. I am extremely grateful for Kim's excellent guidance and representation, and highly recommend her.

Highly Recommend

I would highly recommend Kim. She has been a great attorney in helping us revise our current child support order. We are still going through the process but Kim has kept us appraised of the filings, has responded to filings timely, honestly and thoroughly. She sites appropriate cases in support of... our case and is very articulate in her filings. We have also had Kim represent us in a prior divorce findings hearing, she was very clear with us about the situation, the positives and negatives about our case and the potential outcome of our situation. She did very well representing us and did very well at the hearing. Again, we would highly recommend her to anyone.

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.
