Went to Kelly with a complex custody arrangement with a disagreement, she was quick, efficient, and willing to fight for me and my girls, she fought and won. If you want someone to fight for what is right, hire her today!

Hired Kelly for my divorce case. She was very responsive and attentive. She always fought for me and was always prepared for court. Her staff was also helpful. So happy I had her in my corner. Definitely recommend

I couldn’t be happier with the way Mrs. Kelly Ridings guided me through my divorce proceedings. She is so knowledgeable and personable, and she is so on top of her work that I never had to worry about anything. She provided me great peace of mind in addition to her competence and I am very grateful to have had that through it all.

She went the extra mile to help me get custody of my cousin's little girl!! And to get her out of an awful home.

Mrs. Ridings and her staff are absolutely outstanding at what they do! I immediately felt like I had made the right choice when I met with her to discuss my divorce. They have walked me through the process step by step, reassuring me of the whole process along the way. They never hesitate to answer any of my questions, no matter how big, small or redundant they my be. She really does make such a hard process more bareable and easier to understand.

We got Kelly as our lawyer due to my step son being took from his mother over a year ago. The father did anything and everything he could to get him. Due to him being born without a pancreas he has to have 24:7 care and they thought the father couldn’t take care of him. So since we hired Kelly it took all of maybe 4 months to get him home. We got our pump training done and now he’s home. We got court soon to get full custody!

Kelly was fantastic to work with from day one. I knew that my divorce was not going to be cut and dry. There would be conflict in our divorce and custody, but Kelly helped to alleviate so much fear. I don’t know what I would’ve done without her. She told me very early on “no one ever gets exactly what they want in court.” And that may be true, but I am confident that our verdict was so much closer to what we wanted because of Kelly! She never put me on the back burner or made me feel like my case was just another case… I felt like she was fighting for me and my child. That to me is priceless. Also, her team was wonderful to work with. They kept me up-to-date on every change and I always felt that we were ahead of the game, because of their commitment to my case. I cannot thank them enough.

Kelly and her staff supported me through a hard custody enforcement case in Kentucky while I live in Arizona. I was kept informed of all actions occurring and any calls were answered within a timely manner. Kelly used her knowledge of the state law and experience to deal with multiple filings of false statements and squashed them immediately. Her responses left the court with no other choice to but to side with me. I was very pleased with the outcome and Kelly and her staff's help.
