Great for newbies to the divorce process

Keri was recommended to me by a friend and I plan to use her if I ever need help again. She was so patient and kind while listening to my questions (even though I'm sure she's heard them many times). I told her upfront that I had no idea what I was doing and she helped me along the way the whole time.... My case was fairly simple and I didn't want much battle in the divorce. She listened and helped me achieve my goals but also suggested to me ways I could get a better outcome for myself. When I said no, she didn't try to convince me, she allowed me to make my choices but insured that I was informed of my options. She's great! ❤ prices felt fair to me!

Life saver

I was throughly impressed with the work the Keri did on my divorce case. She combined a tough sense of professionalism with compassion for me and my situation. Her response time to my questions was phenomenal, often within minutes. I felt adequately represented and confident that I was getting the... best possible scenario for me and my children. Keri took the time to talk me through complicated legal matters so I could always make the best informed decision. I highly recommend Keri Smith.

Divorce representation

I'm an aging woman who needed a lawyer who understood the issues of gray divorce and could work with a woman who had a voice. I hired Keri because she met all the criteria I had for hiring a lawyer. She is kind, compassionate, a strong communicator, a realist, has a broad knowledge of divorce laws an...d retirement issues, listens and validates needs and concerns, and more. I always felt supported, and knew I was working with a woman who would always have my best interest in the forefront. I needed a fair and equitable settlement with spousal support. I got it. I needed a lawyer who would treat me with respect and dignity and was someone I respected. I got it. I strongly recommend Keri Smith.
