Kathleen not only negotiated the legalese and dumbed it down for me, but more importantly was an empathetic and caring touchstone. Always available just to hear me vent and help me pull it together. And then insure that on paper, at the end of the process, I was treated fairly and came out feeling good about moving forward in that regard and emotionally more whole.
Seems kinda odd that the first Google review of my lawyer – Kathleen Wells – is initiated by my soon to be ex-wife pre trial. Does that strike anyone else as being oddly vicious? I think Kathleen must be doing a great job. Tour free to draw your own conclusion.
Thank you to the entire team! David, Lianne, Kathleen and especially Cora-I will forever be grateful for the kindness you have all shown me. Thanks for making the hardest thing just a little bit easier. Take care.
The other professionals that Kathleen has put me in touch with (therapist, High conflict parent support, PN8 assessment) have been amazing. I could never have made it without these 4 amazing people.
She knows how to get in there and fight for you and she knows how to give you a hug when you need it. There is no one like Kathleen!!
We felt like we were her only clients as she was always there for us, answering emails telephone calls and making every effort to be available when we needed her. Kathleen took our rambling thoughts and frustrations and put them into affidavits and documents in such a clean and concise manner they were hard for opposing counsel to argue against. My family and I highly recommend this bright, dedicated, and insightful lawyer. You would be lucky to have her on ‘your’ side !!
