⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Exceptional Attorney Working with Kerry Slade, Esq. over the past two and a half years has been outstanding. She guided me through a complex legal dispute with my ex and exceeded every expectation. Kerry is thorough, professional, and incredibly dedicated. She took the time to fully understand my case, communicated clearly throughout, and made a stressful process much easier to manage. Her negotiation skills were excellent, securing a strong settlement without ever needing to go to court. I’m grateful for her hard work and the results she achieved. I would absolutely work with her again and highly recommend Kerry to anyone needing a reliable and genuinely caring attorney.

 
Residential Real Estate

Kerry reviewed a purchase contract for a house that we were attempting to buy without a real estate agent. It was a time-sensitive process and she was able to review the purchase contract the same day it was sent. She caught several errors in the contract, including the absence of a mortgage contingency that we had agreed upon with the seller - the contract as written obligated us to purchase the house even if we were unable to get a mortgage. Catching this error was huge, as it turned out the house violated a zoning ordinance and could not be appraised without what would have been significant time and expense. We really appreciated Kerry's promptness, attention to detail, and professionalism.

Having worked on a significant litigation matter with Kerry, I can give her an unqualified recommendation. She is very knowledgeable in her areas of practice and returns phone calls quickly. She is also focused on getting to the bottom line quickly which reduces costs to the client.
