I'm really shocked to read the bad reviews because Kelso is absolutely the most personable friendly caring lawyer I have ever met. He even gives you his personal cell phone number so you can call him at home! Not only does he care, he really knows what he is doing. Highly recommended!

The hospitality and warmth provided by Kelso and all the paralegals was top notch. I was overwhelmed with the support and patience from everyone. My ex-husband was a bully, I was afraid and was unsure what to do. Kelso stood by me and provided advice which helped me get out of my situation. My wish is that, if you feel stuck in a marriage the Advocacy Law Center is patient and professional, make sure you contact them. They will get you through your circumstance. It is because of the Advocacy Law Center, that I now have a new lease on life. I am not stuck in an unhealthy environment. Whilst I do not wish for people to go through divorces, if you do need a divorce lawyer, make sure you see Kelso at the Advocacy Law Center.

Kelso Lindsay is a knowledgeable, driven and upfront attorney. He is an excellent listener and asks relevant questions to thoroughly understand your legal matter. Camille, his paralegal, is attentive, kind, welcoming and detail-oriented. She is an asset to his practice. Kelso guided me through a complex legal matter which required me to hire two attorneys at the same time. He worked cooperatively with my other attorney and took the lead to meet an extremely time-sensitive deadline. Kelso devoted his weekend hours to my case in order to meet the deadline needed for both attorneys. He went above and beyond and continues to be there as a legal ear when I need him. My legal matter at times can still be confusing at times and I am at ease to have Kelso and Camille just a phone call away. Our time as client and attorney was brief in comparison to most legal matters, however, his extensive knowledge of family law was instrumental in guiding me onto the optimal path. He treated me like family and acknowledged my contributions to the favorable outcome we received. There aren't enough words to express the gratitude I feel for Kelso stepping out into muddy waters and navigating these unique times along with my unique situation. I would highly recommend Kelso Lindsay to anyone needing family law representation. Thank you Kelso & Camille.

I highly recommend Kelso. He and his team did all I could ask for and more. I only wish I would have listened more to his professional advise. He was very patient with me and was a very respectful help when it was really hard for me to see clearly. I will always appreciate what he did for me!

James was very personable treated me like I was his only case for the day. Treated me very respectfully. Saw I was a first time (very (Nervous) offender and walked me through the when where, and things I needed to do to stay up on my end of my penalties. I Never met my Lawyer. James didn't treat me like I was a bad person. I Talked to Ed once on the phone, and he treat me like a common criminal. And made me feel dumb. So thank you to James! Making this a easier very much needed learning experience!

Kelso and his assistant Tara were amazing! They both fought for me and looked past my mistakes to see the person I am now. In the end Kelso was able to reunite my oldest daughter and I despite the other parties outlandish lies and was even able to get the opposing party to admit he was untruthful while being on the stand! Even though this was a very difficult and stressful time for me I was able to pull threw because of this law office believing in me and not backing down, I am eternally grateful! Love them both

Mr. Kelso is the best. We hired him to represent my family. After talking to him on the phone, we knew he was the right fit for my husband and I. I have been to family court numerous times in the past, sometimes with an attorney and sometimes with out. We are so thankful we had mr. Kelso on our side. He was so up front telling us we could do this on our own or hire him to help us through it. Yes, I know we could have done this alone, but the piece of mind knowing he would stand up for us and deliver the facts and protect us in this stressful time is PRICELESS. He is worth EVERY PENNY. He knows the law inside and out. He also has a great sense of humor, which in stressful times really can lighten the mood. Tara the paralegal in the front office is a great teammate as well. She's smart and kind. We are so thankful we decided to hire a lawyer for this matter and that we literally hired the best. Mr. Kelso knows his way around the courtroom. I'm hoping we never have to hire another lawyer in the future, however if we do... you know it will only be the best..... and that is definitely Mr. Kelso. From the bottom of my heart..... Thank you Mr. Kelso for having mine and my husband's back in the court room 150%. I will make sure to tell everyone here to not waste their time with interviewing others. I did the research for everyone. Mr. Kelso is the Best of the Best!!!

Kelso helped my now wife finally get out of a very unhappy marriage. It was rather a complicated case with children and a lot of assets involved. He was there for us every step of the way making sure no wrong decisions was made. He is a very knowledgeable and confident attorney that cares about his clients. Would definitely recommend him to anyone

To All, When I contacted Kelso Lindsay regarding my divorce, we spoke on the phone for about 10 minutes, right away I knew Mr. Lindsay was a compassionate Attorney that was very knowledgeable and concerned. He asked me to come to his office, I said I would meet him there. Upon my arrival his paralegal Tara was very professional and attentive. Kelso and I met and I'm sure he knew he had an emotionally charged client! Mr. Lindsay and Tara were absolutely the best thru the entire process of my divorce and the 2 protection orders that were fraudulent. Mr. Lindsay is a very protective lawyer for his clients. Mr. Lindsay protected me and my concerns from a predator that would stop at nothing to demoralize and devalue me to protect her lies. Mr. Lindsay and his paralegal Tara is the best there is!!!! Mr. Lindsay is a pillar of a man that anyone can trust, he is caring, compassionate, genuine, and without hesitation, above all Mr. Lindsay has a big heart and is deeply concerned with his client. In my life I have seen very few Attorney's in action in a court room. However, Mr. Lindsay in a court room is a "Beast" he certainly knows his way around a court room and his professional etiquette is awe inspiring to say the least. Anyone seeking an Attorney in Idaho, need not look any farther, Mr. Lindsay is absolutely the best Attorney! Hopefully, I will never need an Attorney again, however if I do J. Kelso Lindsay is the only Attorney I will ever call. There are not enough words in the English dictionary that could pay enough accolades to such a stellar man!!!! Tara Bowden is without doubt an awesome knowledgably paralegal her integrity is just Mr. Lindsay it is unparalleled. Simply put these two are the best!!! Sincerely, Vance.

Finally, after being shrugged off by multiple Attorneys and spending the two years prior attempting to get my then ‘out of state’ husband to sign the paperwork I had drawn up for our divorce (at $250 a pop) only for him to throw them away, I Finally found Kelso Lindsay! Much to my Surprise surprise Mr. Lindsay was genuinely listening to my struggles and truly wanted to help me resolve them so that I might move forward with my life. Then there it was....... Finally a Divorce! Thank you Kelso Lindsay!
