For some reason I couldn’t reply on the review I wrote but I only asked for a price estimated range because I wanted to be prepared which is a common question anywhere you go not everyone is going to know how things like this work or if it’s worth something so you ask questions to make sure to be prepared. The lady continuously kept cutting me off as I spoke that’s rude no need to leave your number because I’m not calling back to this place another firm actually reached out and I was treated with respect and they answered my question with no problems about the price estimate and was very respectful and herd me out on my concerns. Take notes mabey you’ll learn how to be respectful to ones that come for help to your firm.

Months into working with Denis, I received an official court document in the mail that stated if I did not complete a court requirement (a simply online course) in SIX days, my case would be CLOSED. I was able to complete this requirement any time after 10/11, and it needed to be completed and submitted by 12/11. Denis did not notify me of this requirement one single time, and I even had a video meeting and exchanged emails with him on 10/11! The only reason I was able to complete the requirement online is because of the notice the court sent- NOT because Denis instructed me to. He was made aware of this, and has still not even acknowledged this or apologized. On top of almost costing me my entire case, I don’t know that the man answered a single one of my questions, would go missing for weeks at a time (the longest I did not hear back from him was 6 weeks), did not hand in MANY necessary documents to the courts on time, and still has not returned my voicemail from September, that I even reminded him about via email.

Mr. Kitchen has handled many legal issues for both my family and our not-for-profit ministry. He always handles himself with professionalism, excellence and kindness. I've never felt like he was in judgement of my choices, decisions or concerns and always treated me more as a friend than a client. His commitment to serving others is evidenced by the pro-bono work he has done for our ministry as well as others. It is an honor to have him as President of the Board of Directors because of his leadership qualities, his quiet confidence and his wise counsel. Both my wife, Cheryl and I recommend his legal advice across many issues.

Denis Kitchen truly helped me with a personal financial problem. He answered any questions I had and directed me thoroughly through the process! Also, our family had an emergency where my mom became sick fast and needed nursing home care ASAP. I called Denis Kitchen quite upset because we needed a power of attorney for my mom quickly! Denis Kitchen was very compassionate and met us at the hospital to get the paperwork completed! He often goes above and beyond the call of duty! I would highly recommend Denis Kitchen!

I had the worst experience with Arthur at this firm, who despite several phone calls and emails never once responded to me regarding his client's case. I would be wary to hire any firm that handles financial affairs of their clients this way.

Kelly helped my boyfriend go from custody every other weekend to full emergency custody. She took a lot of initiative in court and in researching my boyfriend's ex-wife and other cases involving her. She was kind and thorough.

Hired Kelly who seemed very nice and helpful. She carried my case all the way, able to get custody against my ex, and child support as well. I was hoping to keep things amicable, but unfortunately, Kelly seemed to escalate everything in court, from insinuations to allegations which I did not request her to make.
I am appreciative of what she did for me, but it really made co-parenting with him impossible. Things are now not amicable making things impossible for me to communicate with the father of my children.

Kelly was wonderful during this whole process with me, she explained the law and followed it. Shes a wonderful, friendy person to work with I highly recommend her. I was in a custody/child support case with her with my ex who was very bitter towards us, she took her own time out on the side to tell and explain what was going to happen, what I was entitled to and followed threw with everything....I love her she was the best compared to the other lawyers I talked to before I chose her.

Getting divorced isn't an easy to go through but Dan helped me every step of the way which made it a little easier. Dan is an excellent lawyer, he always had time to answer all my questions in a way that I could understand. He even gave me some great advice on a bankruptcy i was going through at the same time.I hope I never need another divorce attorney but if I did, I would use Dan again in a heartbeat.
Please don't hesitate to give Dan a call if you need a divorce or bankruptcy attorney.

I’m embarrassed about it, but I was a victim of scam. so I asked for advice. Even though I’ve given them the contact information of the scammer’s email address and telephone number, they never contacted the scammer. I was still receiving several emails and texts from the scammer, but the attorney said just ignore it. Later, I received letter from the attorney regarding my case. It was written my case was closed. What’s more, it dated one months before I received the letter!! Nothing was resolved in the end.

Frank does not care about minor cases but will take your money. He does not return calls and would not provide me with updates on my case. Had to drop him and hire a lawyer who actually wanted to help me. He did not care that I dropped him. Frank is more concerned about big profile cases that gets his name in the news.

"Paragon of Justice and an Epitome of Truth." In the realm of law and justice, the role of a just attorney carries profound significance that transcends mere legal representation. A just attorney, bound by ethical principles and a commitment to fairness, stands as a pillar of integrity with the legal system.
By upholding the principals of justice, such an attorney not only safeguards the rights of their clients but also maintains the delicate balance between truth and the pursuit of a just outcome.
The defense attorney, in particular, assumes a crucial role as the shield between justice and truth. In a legal proceeding, it is the defense attorney's duty to rigorously challenge the prosecution's case, to scrutinize evidence, and to ensure that the rights of the accused are protected.
By zealously advocating for their clients the defense attorney ensures that the truth is unearthed through a process that is thorough, fair, and just. Without this safeguard, the pursuit of truth and the delivery of justice would be compromised, undermining the very foundation of the legal system.
Thus, the role of an attorney, especially the defense attorney, is indispensable in upholding the principals of fairness, integrity, and truth in the pursuit of justice.
Ms. Emily Trott, Esq., was one of the very first attorney's this writer encountered that is defined as a resilient shield between truth and justice.
