Posted by anonymous | February 25, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Ms. Prendergast has been fighting and Winning for me for 6 years!

When I first consulted with Kim 6 yrs ago, I was a mother of 3 living in an abusive (physically & emotionally) marriage of over 10 yrs. Kim was extremely empathetic to all of us and worked very hard on my case, which was very complicated. My (ex)husband was Not cooperative at all which resulted in h...im receiving Move-out orders and an order of protection for me and the children. Kim and her team were able to stay composed and in control, even after courtroom outbursts and receiving personal threats from my Ex. Because of her efforts, the children and I were granted the legal protection we needed throughout the entire 2yr + divorce process. Kim and her staff handled the situation with sensitivity, empathy and caution, reaching out to other attorneys and researching law enforcement advisement when necessary. She was always available to me, and even though the bills added up, I feel she worked way beyond what I was charged for, and in the end it was worth every cent! My dissolution of marriage resulted with me receiving both full legal and physical custody of the children and my ex was ordered to a psychiatric evaluation, anger management and an alcohol evaluation. Non of which he completed in order to have supervised visitation. The original order of protection expired after 5 yrs, so I contacted Kim to renew and advise. Kim filled all necessary paperwork perfectly, guided me through the process and I now have Permanent Orders, but more importantly have peace of mind and have been able to move on and thrive in life. Unfortunately my kids do not have a relationship with their father, but we are Safe and Free from worry of harm. I owe my LIFE to Kim and I am forever grateful to her.
