I recently faced a life changing situation that was not only personally devastating, but also required the necessity of retaining an attorney immediately as my representation. Having lived in Raleigh for seven years without needing a lawyer, I panicked at the thought of finding someone who would help and give me much needed direction. After several calls based on my on-line search, I finally spoke to an attorney whose firm handled my specific issue. My conversation with him was both productive and reassuring. My mind felt at ease and I felt confident this is the attorney I need. Imagine my surprise however, when after detailing my circumstances, this kind gentleman, with unbelievable candor, recommended the law firm of Kelly Thompson and Associates. He explained that her expertise and experience in the sector of law that pertained to my issue was outstanding and her personal concern for her clients was second to none. I thanked him for his honesty and gracious concern and called the number he shared with me immediately. My call was answered by Ryan Mayer, an associate of Ms Thompson, who after hearing my case, not only calmed my fears of the unknown, he also reassured me that while the matter was serious, it was an area of the law that their firm specialized in and they would be able to handle the case on my behalf. Ryan's warmth, compassion and professional knowledge went a very long way in putting my frantic mind at ease. He even went as far as providing the necessary information I would need to correspond with the office should I need them over the weekend as all this took place on a Friday afternoon. I was overwhelmed by his expertise and ability to address all my concerns in an immediate manner. My next delightful surprise was my consultation with Kelly. Her manner conveyed both a personal and professional concern that brought relief and insight that calmed and reassured me beyond measure. Her attitude as well as Ryan's, proved that the main objective in their firm is not a financial one, but rather, the wellbeing of their client and protecting them and their legal rights. They absolutely exceeded my expectations in every way possible. In a world where greed and avarice appears to be the motivating factor in all areas of business, I consider myself so fortunate to have found Kelly Thompson and her team. Their support helped me in my time of need. Thank you Kelly and Ryan.
Kelly E Thompson represented me in the matter of custody for my son . I couldnt possibly recomend her highly enough . She provided me with the best support,advice and counsel I could ever hope for . My son now lives with me and is thriving and was delivered from a very dangerous situation thanks to Ms. Thompson . She stuck by my side for years seeing my son and me through a difficult case . Not only is she the finest attorney I could ever recomend she is one of the finest human beings I have ever known in my life . She truly cares about her clients ! She is super smart and literally my son and my savior . I wouldnt hire any one else on this planet ever . Hiring Kelly E Thompson is the single best move I have ever made in my life !!!
Kelly was my attorney for my divorce proceedings and I would not hesitate to recommend her highly. She is very knowledgeable and gave great advice.
This was a custody case. She filed the wrong draft in Court. She petitioned for a GAL which the Judge thought was not necessary. Her response time to my emails became longer and longer. She started emailing me things we already decided against. She stopped sending me monthly invoices early on in the case. A month before trial she emails me saying she has already spent the $5000 I paid her and she wants more money even though I was the one running around getting things for the case. Refusing to have a phone conversation with me, she withdrew weeks before trial.
