I highly recommend Fresh Start! Kathy and the whole team supported and worked diligently for me during a terrible time in my life. Always following up, always answering every question and concern with compassion and kindness. I didn't have to worry about anything. Now that it is all said and done, I couldn't be happier with the service I received from this wonderful practice. Thank you, Kathy and Team :)

If you're looking for an honest but fierce no-nonsense type of attorney, Ms. Lucas is your type of attorney. Her dedication to my case was apparent from the beginning. She is very resourceful, especially in situations like mine, when the defendant refused to provide requested documents. Ms. Lucas consistently followed-up behind the scenes on my behalf and kept me informed about the status of my case in a timely manner. She was also considerate of my time when it came to court appearances. I highly recommend her.

Ms Lucas guided me through every step of the divorce process. When we first met, I was scared, overwhelmed, and completely unprepared for a contentious divorce. She was supportive and encouraging, and helped me find the strength to fight for my rights. Ms. Lucas expertly negotiated a reasonable custody and property settlement. I wholeheartedly recommend Fresh Start Family Law!

Kathy was very helpful in getting my separation and divorce finalized. She was honest and up front about the expectations, so I was never surprised or led astray during the entire process. Made the whole ordeal way more comfortable than it could have been.

Kathy was a member of a law group I had used previously. She reviewed my court order from my divorce and then talked to me on the phone about my concerns and desires. Since I was in a different state than NC it was difficult for me to meet in person and all our communication was handled by phone or email. She is a very effective communicator and does not hesitate to tell the truth or present all foreseeable senarios and options. She also is quick to point out when she needs assistance and has many competent contacts in her legal arsenal. Kathy stayed on the offensive in my case and produced the most favorable outcome I could have expected. She is absolutely a wonderful lawyer and genuine person. She is reasonable, trustworthy, intelligent and professional. I would not hesitate to use her services again when the need arises. Steve

I HAD THE BEST: Listener, attentative, accurate, speedy, knowledgeable, competitive and most professional attorney for my divorce of a 32 year marriage. That's Kathy H. Lucas!!!

Kathy was an exceptional representative in our case. She took the time to understand our complex situation and was compassionate, understanding and in our case provided us w/ the best possible outcome.

Kathy Holmes is an attorney who comes in prepared and ready to aggressively represent her client. Her knowledge of statutes and case law is evident in the courtroom and I believe made a huge difference in my case. While she understands and respects the protocol of the courtroom, she was not intimidated nor reserved when it came to addressing the court on my behalf. I would highly recommend Ms. Holmes to anyone who wants strong and confident representation.

Kathy Holmes handled my legal affairs pertaining to my divorce, and she did a stellar job. This was a very hard time in my life, and Kathy handled my situation with professionalism, and did a fantastic job addressing all my needs and concerns.

I thought the process of a divorce was gong to be the worst experience of my life. Once I met with Kathy Holmes, that fear subsided. She is an amazing lawyer and friend. She even called me a few times to see how I was doing after the divorce was final. Kathy knows the laws and takes your input as to the extent you need her to fight for you and your needs. I have recommended her and will do so more in the future. If you want a quality, knowledgeable and friendly experience, you can't go wrong with Kathy Holmes.

I have referred a number of people to Kathy because she was very knowledgeable, understanding and wants the best for her clients. I'm glad I chose Kathy to represent me during my divorce! It was the best decision I could have ever made!!! Thank you!!
