Going through a long and very messy divorce, during the consultation Mrs. Bates sold herself very well and said all the right things about how we could push this through etc. Fast forward a year later absolutely nothing has been accomplished, I can barely get her to respond to an email and she wont even call when I ask her to. It seems like she is more worried about being friends with the opposing attorney than actually doing what's best for her client. If I thought I could get my retainer back and get a different attorney I would do it in a heartbeat. If you want someone who cares or takes an interest in you and your personal well being going through a divorce, do NOT go with her!

Mrs. Bates, Has been awesome to work with. I am a Military member and was transition to a new location during my Divorce. Not once did I ever have to appear for anything and she was always very prompt when returning calls & answering questions I may have had. She helped me win my Divorce battle and I will forever be grateful for that!

Amy was always knowledgeable and honest about what we could and could not expect in court. She was the best at returning calls/emails and made us feel like we were important and our questions were important to us.

Amy Bates has been a huge help to me during my divorce. She was able to address any concerns that I had. And when there were loose ends concerning the details of my divorce, Ms. Bates worked quickly and diligently to resolve the issue. I am very happy and grateful to have her as a lawyer.

Amy helped me out on a matter that involved both criminal charges and contested divorce proceedings. She met with me several times, at each stage of the proceedings, for each case, and kept me up to speed on what was happening. She (and her office) stayed on top of filing all motions, and kept copies of all paperwork needed. Her manner was absolutely professional, and really gave me a sense of confidence at a time when I wasn't sure how things would go. That confidence was justified, too. The criminal charges were dismissed, and she kept a lid on what could have been very messy divorce proceedings. I was always able to contact her and get an answer to my questions within a day. Additionally, the contract I signed with her was based on the case, not on time, so I never felt hesitant to ask a question fearing the financial cost. I would definitely recommend Amy Bates, and the Kennedy law firm, to anyone needing legal assistance in Clarksville.

From the moment I stepped into Amy Bates' office I was welcomed and knew that she truly wanted to help me get the best care I can. She has been very dedicated and helped me every step of the way with my case. Very professional and knowledgeable. She follows up with me on a regular basis. Her support staff is top notch. I am glad that she was by my side. Amy I sincerely thank you for your support to my family during this trying time. I would highly recommend Amy Bates for any legal matter.

Well I think over all Amy has been an attentive , open and caring attorney Her attention to detail on follow up with my case has been great . She does very well with follow ups via email and phone calls She is agressive about attention to detail and activiley defending and going after the facts Well presented in court I feel safe and well represented by her This case of mine is emotionally draining It's still ongoing and I am confident she will do her utmost and "crush" And expose the garbage And protect my family Go Amy

Amy is a very personable informed lawyer. She represented me through a very stressful divorce. She was always available and returned an answer to my questions promptly. I highly recommend her for family/divorce representation. I appreciate the Kennedy law firm

Amy helped us get custody of my stepson. It was a difficult situation & one that we didn't expect to "win". Amy's professionalism & promptness made a considerable contribution to us winning our case. She was very diligent & continuosly followed up. We are grateful for Amy & her abilities.

Miss Bates represented me during a very heated divorce. I lived out of state during the whole divorce process which made meeting about my case difficult. Most of my contact with Miss Bates was through email. She would always respond to my emails and i never felt like my case wasn't a priority. I would often send very long emails with photos, screen shots, and audio recordings and Miss bates went through every single thing I sent, organized it all, and built a case off it. She also was honest about what to expect going into the court hearing. She never made any promises about outcomes she couldn't guarantee and made it clear that it's hard to tell what the judge will decide. Some lawyers just go through the motions but always felt like Miss Bates was on my side fighting for the best outcome. She was also very reasonable and understanding with payment plans and payment options. Even after the divorce was over and everything decided if i ever had any questions she made it clear that she would be available to answer them. If you choose Miss Bates as your lawyer you will for sure be in good capable hands.
