Amazing team of professional women who I cannot recommend highly enough! I was referred to this office for a custody case and I’m SO glad I went with their services. Kristen is amazing, she’s been doing family law for over 20 years and her expertise shows - she knows exactly what she’s doing and the best way to help you with your case. I’m honestly SO happy I went with this office, I’ve already referred another single mom to them who is also already so happy with their services. If you’re a single mom fighting for your children, please go with this law firm. They are passionate about their clients and their cases, and they are extremely thorough.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Kristen Howard and her team. I hired Kristen after my last attorney had poor communication skills, lacked initiative and had internal staffing issues that felt like my case was not given the attention it needed when hard deadlines were approaching. Once Kristen and her team took over it was completely a different experience. I should of hired her from the beginning and I am so grateful I found her. Kristen kept me up to date on all communication from opposing counsel and made key suggestions that left me completely at ease. While the entire case was stressfull knew Kristen and her team were truly looking out for my best interest and my daughter's. The cost part was always a concern on my end, and I could tell Kristen was working efficiently and diligently on her end to keep my costs down. I was so pleased with Kristen and her team, that I rehired them for a change of orders knowing they could easily and efficiently take this on. If ever I need to hire another family law attorney I know I do not need to look anywhere else, but with Kristen.

There are not words to describe my gratitude to Carolyn Makupson. I was stuck in a divorce that dragged out for 5 years. I was so discouraged by the time I retained her and couldn't believe it when she got the dissolution of status with 3 months of retaining her. She knows the law and was a master at handling challenging opposing counsel. I am still in shock at how she handled everything so quikly. She is also handling my custody issues. What is refreshing and wonderful about her is how personally invested she is in my children's safety and well being. She knows all of the details of my case and regularly confers with her top notch legal team (Kristen Howard and Erika Scheideman). I was shocked that they all knew and cared about my case in an impromptu meeting last week. The concern and effort all of these women have put forth on my case is really overwhelming. Not only are they outstanding attorneys, but they really care. Carolyn has been honest about what to expect each step of the way and has been such a source of comfort at the challenging points. As if that's not enough... she also operates with such professionalism and integrity. Every invoice for services has been thoroughly detailed and time spent for each item was honest and reasonable. I have never worried about being gouged or over billed. Carolyn Makupson is worth every penny and I highly recommend her (or one of the other two VERY good/experienced attorneys in her office) to anyone in need of a family lawyer. I hope that I don't have the need for family legal services in the future, but if I do there is no one I would rather represent me. She has my 100% confidence and trust and I feel blessed to have been referred to her. She has made a huge impact on my family. We will be forever in her debt.

I probably had one of the most difficult cases. Going through a divorce with no kids, no assets, should have been cut and dry. Was I wrong. Being the respondent in the case is hard when you trying to get a divorce and other party does not want to sign. The biggest turn around in my case is when Kristen had the petitioner sign the dissolution paper for the current case. Open a new case change me from respondent to petitioner. This got the ball rolling. After that I was divorced in 6 months. Thanks to the whole team for helping.

Family Law is scary and incredibly emotional. My child was very young when we started which caused me tremendous amount of anxiety and stress. I decided to go with Kraig Kibble initially because of his close proximity to where my case resided. While working with him I felt more and more confident that I have made the right decision. He represented me well throughout my case and prepared me for all scenarios setting my expectations up for the best and worst cases. His demeanor in court is professional, precise, and confident in which the Judge responded to well. Even when the opposing party was going low Kraig continued to take the high road which enlightened my case and helped in the best way possible. Kraig didn't only play the role of my attorney, but he also supported my case as a mediator. He helped with some of the communications between myself and the opposing party, and provided me with various options on how we could respond or go about the matter (logistically and legally, if needed). I'm very glad I went with Kraig and would recommend him to anyone that is going through a child custody case. He knows the judges well and without fail will represent you to your fullest expectations and more. He is definitely one of the good guys, and will keep your and your child's best intentions in mind.
