I can't praise Kelly enough for the great work she did for me and two kids who I love. She came onto my case after I had to dismiss my first attorney, was positive from the beginning, and completed my case in a short amount of time. She's kind, intelligent, cares deeply for her clients and the work she does for us, and I am so grateful that she was recommended to me by another of her client's who rightfully praised her to me. I would recommend her to anyone who needs help with a family issue. Thank you, Kelly, from me and the kids!

Kelly listened to our needs and concerns, and worked with us proactively to come to the best possible resolution of our legal needs. She identified opportunities to streamline the process and avoid the legal system - which ultimately meant that her additional work (and her fees) would be less than they otherwise would have been. She checked in with us along the way to assure all our questions were addressed and make sure things were going as planned. We were really satisfied with Kelly's approach, her demeanor, and her outcomes.

Kelly Staples is an excellent lawyer who helped me and my daughter through several scary and difficult situations with my ex-husband. She provided me with timely advice and support over a long period of time and was ready to act quickly when I needed legal action in an urgent situation. She is smart, kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, and tough as nails when she needs to be. She looks out for the best interests of the children and the family as a whole and stays with you for as long as needed. I would highly recommend Kelly Staples to any friend or family member in need of a great family lawyer.

We hired Kelly for my boyfriends parenting time case. We found her after doing tons of research on father's rights and knew she was who we needed. She helped us from start to finish and the entire time she answered all of our questions promptly and professionally. I cannot imagine how things would have went if it weren't for Kelly, she helped us see things from another perspective and pointed out things that we didn't even know we're important. In a time like that we were blessed to find someone that was fair, open, and trustworthy.

I found myself in a position no one would want to be in: My ex-wife was not letting me spend time with our son for our scheduled visitation periods. Unfortunately, I was unable to resolve it directly with her and found myself in need of an attorney. Luckily, I found Kelly Staples!
Ms Staple was an amazing attorney to work with: She carefully listened to my situation, showed incredible empathy, and clearly laid out my legal options. I made my choice and engaged Ms Staples. Long story short- with Ms Staples help, I was able to secure compensatory time for all of the parenting time I missed out on and my ex-wife is once again adhering to our parenting agreement.
Her fees were very reasonable and the quality of her work was amazing! Ms Staples has checked in with me a few times since winning our case— just to check in and ensure things were still running smoothly. I will definitely use Ms Staples for any and all legal help I may need in the future.

Kelly has represented both my husband and myself in a very long drawn out custody matter that's led to many many hearings. Kelly has always been more than available and helpful with her work for us. Shes truly been a light of hope during a dark situation. I would recommend her to anyone dealing with a contentious family court situation

I’ve had Kelly representing us for approximately 3 years now. Kelly has given honest feedback regarding our situation and any steps we could or couldn’t take. One highlight I’d like to share was an incident that happened while she was on vacation that involved the law. Not only did Kelly respond while on vacation but provided great guidance and as much help as possible while being 1500 miles away. Kelly checked in during her vacation and once she returned circled back to see where we were at. I’d recommend Kelly to anyone in a child custody/family law situation looking for quality representation.

Kelly is a fantastic attorney to have on your side. I was going through a messy divorce with children and advised to hire legal representation early on in the process. She explained the process clearly, advised appropriately, followed through with my wishes and most importantly, allowed me to focus on my children and myself while she took care of the legal aspects. One way to put it is, she became the buffer between me and my spouse/his attorney. Another way to say the same thing is, Kelly gave me my life back. I don't know what I would have done without her expertise and understanding through a very stressful time in my life.

I hired Kelly to represent me in my divorce, which was a very complicated case. I’m so thankful I went with her! She was calm, patient and extremely helpful anytime I needed my questions answered she was available. She went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and educated. I can’t imagine going through this case with anyone else!

Kelly helped my family with a difficult and frusterating custody matter. Kelly skillfully and tactfully helped us reach a fair agreement despite the other parties' lawyer's attempts to delay and stall mediation. We were impressed with Kelly's
professionalism, prompt responses and ability to articulate effectively.
We feel very lucky to have found her!

I hired Kelly because my friend found her through a search for men’s rights advocates and that was appealing, but it turned out not so much the truth. I have met and know many lawyers throughout my life and she is the first lawyer that would not share her cell phone number with me. She blocks her calls every time and will only corresponde through email and then an occasional call from the phone in her husbands office that she used to meet with clients. She was very rude when I told her I was going to represent myself and she was being relieved. Snide offensive criticism continued email after email as I was told I would receive a refund check for the balance of my retainer it has not shown in 2 weeks since the day she said it was in the mail. Kelly has the nerve to blame me in the last email stating it was probably me lying about the check not showing because it was beneficial to my case in someway. She has a few things going on in her personal relations ability that are fairly immature and I was offended by her criticism and assumptions. Seriously thinking there may be misconduct here. She is out of line in my experience.

Kelly represented me for an order of protection and ultimately my divorce. She helped me understand the legal process and was extremely patient and helpful during such a stressful time. I'm so very pleased with her services. She was prompt to reply, flexible with scheduling and her rates were 100% transparent. Definitely recommend her.
