Kathryn, NO JEED TO SEARCH FOR ANOTHER ATTORNEY!! KATHRYN is incredibly knowledgeable, has set her own precedences and every penny you pay her is worth all her fight and hard work. I heard her 1st hand fight and get my daughter's custody rights back. She is not afraid of any Judge or Attorney!!! She fight tooth and nail for you. Our fanily went through 4 Big name Attorneys who supposively had good reputations. The problem was going to a larger firm gets your money nothing but bigger bills. We respect Kathryn and appreciate her hard work and Thankful for all she did! My daughter after 5 years fighting got her rights back!!!

Kathryn has been an excellent resource! She's one he'll of an advocate for her clients! Despite the few negative reviews, she has integrity, honor, and common sense. She is very assertive; because she knows the law, and she knows how the "system" really works. She will tell you if you don't have a chance of winning instead of wasting your money and giving you false hope. Highly recommend her!!!

We got off to a good start, once my retainer was paid in full everything started changing, at first she made it seem like we had the upper hand in the custody battle and property dissolution but as time went on I realized she didn't care about the outcome after I refused to lie about the past history and behavior of my ex husband. I ended up hiring a different attorney and to this day have not received any of my retainer money back. The moment I hired a different attorney communication inproved with my ex husband and his attorney and we were able to settle and agree. Kathryn is very unprofessional and rude, does not let me finish a sentence and during our last conversation she hung up on me twice. She wasn't supportive of communicating with the opposing party and only cared that we went to trial.

I called the office this morning 425-316-8090 to try and confirm they office address because I had a 10am appt. I called in and was greeted with: “I’m on the phone I can’t talk.” I had to look at my phone to make sure I had called the right number. The person didn’t give their name, and I said “Wow that’s a rude way to answer the phone to a potential client.” The lady, I believe it was Katherine responded with “well wouldn’t it be rude to not talk to the person I’m on the phone with?” I responded with “no, you should have just answered with - This is so and so, I am on the other line can I give you a call back when I’m done?” So her being extremely rude, wasted my and the other clients time. I was looking forward to working with the firm, but was told I’m not wanted as a client because I called back on a secondary number 425-316-8080. How am I supposed to know all lines lead to Katherine? I only know it was Katherine because the second time calling she said her name.

This lawyer is a total joke, way too expensive never get's anything done just sits in the chair making rude comments. This lawyer will make you lose. She will argue with a judge and get your case thrown out. No ethic's she would back Hitler if he paid her 300$ an hour.. She thinks she should be able to decide what's best in situations that she really knows nothing about. For a price she would make sure a kid ends up in a terrible home over a good one as long as the terrible parents the one payin
