Kathryn is great!! She helped me with family documents when I had unexpected health issues. She was extremely knowledgeable and thorough but more importantly she was kind and understanding of the situation.

Run and don’t hire. Their motto is over promise, severely under deliver and ILL advise you to run up their fees. They are great at over charging you for substandard service. If you are looking for an attorney whose says in court “I am sorry, I am confused” or “I get those confused” this is the place for you. Below is owner response after I posted the above on google: We are very sorry that you were unhappy with our services. We do wish you the best of luck with your future attorneys and would be happy to update who you hire next on the status of your file. Often what we hear at initial consultations and find out later in the case, changes our opinion of how the case will work out. In the end, you have more now in your case Here is the reality: After I posted the original review the response from the owner says she is willing to discuss "any charges". A month ago she would not take my phone calls and sent me an email stating she would not do any more work for me unless I paid my balance. I was in fact current on my balance and the next payment was not due until the end of December per her invoice, yet she demanded payment on Dec 6th. Previously I have given her a $4K retainer which was used up very quickly and I was double billed on my first invoice for the same day in court with one charge for 4 hours and another charge for 4.5 hours, I was over-billed right out of the gate on the very first invoice. I knew the $4K was used up or was going to be soon, so I gave her another check for $2K without an invoice or being prompted which in turn made me prepaid for another 2 months. Then towards the end I was being harassed by emails almost on a daily basis for the $ 660 that was not even due yet, payment was demanded before Thanksgiving over and over because "she was closing out her books" even though the invoice was dated to be due Nov 30th and her payment was scheduled to be paid on Nov 29th. I even received a payment email reminder on Christmas morning, shows how much they don't care about you and only $$$$. After all this is when she demanded payment or would not finish the motion. These attorneys obviously only care about money and I find it disgusting. In addition, I was told 1 thing by an associate and she had me sign a document that said different. That mistake in turn cost me another $ 6,000 I had to pay to opposing attorney, and when I asked how could this happen she said that is what opposing council wanted. Trust me you sure don't need a $300/hour note passer that is only going to do what the other side wants. Every move they recommended only cost me time and money to lose over and over again. She was 0 for 5 and I am $20K in the hole. Spindler Law Attorney Mon, Dec 2, 2019, 11:05 AM to me Joe, The answer to your question was sent in the email below on Friday. I started your motion and am in the process of finishing your motion today. pay your current balance of $1484.15 and I will file the motion Wednesday. Kathryn So at 11:05am she stated "started your motion and am in the process of finishing your motion today" her words above. THEN AT 11:22 when i ask when will it be done? Her response is below: Spindler Law Attorney Dec 2, 2019, 11:22 AM to me depends on the speed at which I can finish the motion. I will check on your payments. Kathryn I got 3 different answers within 30 minutes on when my motion would be done. On their description she says they are passionate, aggressive, and understanding of your legal needs. The reality is they are selfish, have delicate feelings when challenged and are complete push overs doing whatever opposing council wants. Either way they get a payday and that is their really their only focus, not your needs. Don’t be fooled by their description, it is so far from the truth and how they conduct their services your head will spin. Please don’t hire. They will only make your legal issue worse and take all your money.
