Katie was very helpful and explained everything in detail from the consultation all the way through to the end. Katie answered my question in a very timely fashion even while on vacation, which was above and beyond. She kept reassuring me everything was going to be fine. I highly recommend Katie!!! Thank you Katie
Katie met with me, very clearly laid out my options and made recommendations as to how we should proceed. Her advice was very good and she was collaborative in her approach. She then represented me in a highly effective and efficient manner. Not only was she an effective advocate, Katie was an empathetic and compassionate person. She made an experience that no one wants to endure very tolerable and successful in the end.
Katie VanDeusen was very professional. She took the time to promptly respond to all my questions in detail. I appreciated her thorough preparation for my case. I would highly recommend her to my friends and family.
Katie VanDeusen is truly an amazing attorney, if I could rate her more than 5 stars I would. I hired Katie for post divorce issues and she went above and beyond to help me. She was honest and always kept me informed. I highly recommend her to anyone!
Highly recommend Katie as your Divorce Attorney. She is very committed, professional, compassionate and detailed. Katie was always on time for phone appointments and responds quickly to your inquiries.
Katie filed on my case twice. She was a great help and very down to earth, understanding woman. I highly recommend her!
Katie is very personable and professional. She puts her client’s best interest as a top priority. I always felt that I could contact her with any concerns and she would respond in a timely manner. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for great representation at a great value.
Katie was wonderful to work with and made a tough process easier for us. Communication was excellent, she was very responsive, and got this done quickly for us.
Katie provided me with compassionate counsel during an incredibly difficult time. She was responsive to me, respectful of my circumstances and thoughtful about how to navigate my legal options. She helped lay the groundwork of what was feasible in a clear way that gave me confidence in the difficult decisions I had to make.
I was warned by friends and family early in my divorce journey “make sure you hire a good attorney”. With that said, I wish I had hired Katie years ago. To my own determent, and to the determent of children, my first attorney was terrible. I agreed to things that thought I “had” to agree to (despite having nearly 50/50 custody) that should have never been on paper. As my kids grew older and times changed, the financial burden of original divorce agreement became nearly crippling. My former spouse refused to negotiate outside of court and actually demanded MORE. I approached Katie with my original divorce agreement, and she evaluated it and all the substantial changes that had occurred over the years since the original agreement was filed. She built several arguments around the facts and made a case for a modification. This was not “homework free” on my end. She provided clear directions on actions that I had to take to further prove cohabitation and a modification of child support. Order modification cases can be messy and time consuming and mine was no exception. The fee structure at her firm was a relief…no nickel and diming me for calls and billable hours. For a lump sum, Katie her team stuck it out with me and were just as responsive on last day as they were on the first. At the end of the day, a strong case was made to end maintenance and modify child support. The facts were presented at pre-trail hearings. Soon after, my former spouse settled outside of court to nearly every one of my demands. This was a huge relief. If you’re looking to get your divorce right the first time, Katie is your person. If you’re look to modify your divorce….run, don’t walk ,to her office for a consultation.
