Karen was exactly what I had hoped a divorce lawyer would be. She was kind, understanding and extremely thorough with making sure my assets were protected in every aspect with the divorce. She was easy to reach and answered all my questions in a way that a non lawyer would understand. I would highly recommend Karen for your divorce!

I heartily recommend Karen as a collaborative divorce attorney and mediator. I am impressed by her knowledge and attention to detail; she makes sure that her clients have a clear understanding of even complex issues. She is compassionate. Karen cares about the needs and concerns of her clients. She provides the focus and structure that help her clients develop and reach an agreement. As a divorce financial specialist, it’s always my pleasure to work with her.

I found Karen’s legal representation as an attorney to be effective both from a results and value perspective. Karen is a problem solver, has good attention to detail, is a good listener and communicates with well with the client and the other attorney. She helps the client understand issues and have realistic expectations. She is pleasant to deal with, honest and trustworthy and works well in trying to resolve cases fairly out of court. Karen is a leader in Collaborative Divorce and is one of the top Family Law Mediators in Arlington and Northern Virginia.

There is no way to sugar coat it - divorce is hard. I had two consults with Karen before retaining her and she made predictions during those consults that played out over the course of a year. She's fair-minded, thorough, has an analytical mind, is compassionate and listens to you. She always responded to my emails and phone calls in a timely manner. She talked me off of the ledge many times during the process. We all know that there are times when we just want to lash out in anger but she calmly explains to you why it's not in yours or the children's best interest - even if it's not what you want to hear. I interviewed three lawyers before I retained Karen. Save yourself some time and hire her.

I have worked with Karen Keyes many times - as a mediator, as my opposing counsel, and as a legal resource. I always recommend Karen when my clients ask for a good mediator. She knows the law and is fair and reasonable. Highly recommend.
