Issued a speeding violation in August 2019 on I-465 in Indy. 72/45 work zone/no workers present. State trooper was in traffic and did not use his radar. I disagreed I was driving that fast. I had automatic court date in Carmel, IN since I was over 25 mph above work zone speed limit. Reckless driving. I have a company issued car with very strict rules on moving violations. Had not had a ticket in 10 years. This would be a big deal with my company if not reduced. Secured Katie to help me. She was able to finalize this to a much lower violation and kept me from getting into trouble with my company. Thank you Katie. She can never make any promises up front but she took care of me. I would recommend her for any similar circumstance you encounter. Law firm employees very easy to work with and and above nice whenever I called. Again-- Thank you Katie.

I had one ticket with 2 offenses worth potentially 10 points. In the end, I paid fines but received no points. I never expected that kind of result, although I did feel there were mitigating circumstances. I would never have achieved that result on my own.

Just how lucky I was the day I walked into her office. I found out in court. She knew everyone and they knew her. A powerful presence and respect by her peers was obvious. While I am not experienced with attorneys or the court system this person is and has earned the respect you need in court. Retired veteran Construction worker

Katie is compassionate, efficient, and highly effective. Overall, she made me feel at ease and comfortable with all of the documents I signed. I highly recommend her. Additionally, the fees were very reasonable and my questions were answered quickly.

Katie handled a lemon law case that i had with my Saturn. She was very easy to work. I lived out of town and she was still able to get my case settled quickly. I would definitely recommend her for your cases.

I recently hired Ms. Kawiecki to complete a will and trust for my family. She was very thorough and explained all stages of them process. I had a lot of questions and she took the time to explain above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and fully understood everything. I highly recommend her for your will and or trust needs.
