Exceptional Lawyer for a primary-caretaker man of our kids whose ex-wife was trying to limit…read morevisitation options. You can do no better than with Shelley Kester. She was incredibly diligent, detailed, and her examination and cross examination was simply spot on. She was able to uncover the falsehoods and bring to light the truths. All of my ex-wifes "Witnesses" essentially ended up being my witnesses and strengthening my case. This was all due to the incredible thoroughness of Ms. Kester and the way she builds her case to present to the Judge or Referee. Meticulous & Textbook. None of the witnesses could know where any line of questioning was going and so they all ended up being unprepared for what they were supposed to say and ended up speaking the truth about who I am as a dad. Each witness shoring up my position and revealing the twisting and manipulation of reality that had been going on while old friends and family were turned into people who now seemed to dislike me. Above everything, Shelley Kester is about getting down to the truth. Backround: Our tale of family destruction is not new although it was a bit unilateral and was a surprise to everyone not know as my ex-wife. In the end people deserve to be happy in life and I don't find fault with wanting a new start. But such new starts are better when there is some level of discussion and things are less abrupt. Joint planning would have been better. Obviously, this began a year and 1/2 dispute as my ex-wife decided to drag things into the court rather than use the existing mechanism of arbitration provided by our signed agreement. So hell was unleashed unilaterally upon both sides of our family once more. And the lives of the kids became a purgatory of uncertainty and perpetual stress. My case is extraordinarily different in the sense that I am a man who is fighting the mother of my kids for them to have more right to see me. But what makes the extra difficult is that I also live in an entirely different state. Yet even with such a normally heavy lift, we were able to prevail in the case. Truly, you can do no better to get at the truth and bring back balance in your family than by working with Ms. Kester and her team.

I hired Paul Jarboe in 2011. His actions still haunt me 7 years later. He left me broken. I had the…read moreevidence to prove my innocence to the judge. I just needed someone to help me speak. Instead, Paul silenced me. My innocence was EVERYTHING to me but irrelevant to him. Instead of defending me, he threatened me w/ 6 years in prison but then offered to take it away again if I plead guilty (& paid him thousands for his retainer fee). Later, when I tried to stand up for myself his partner physically prevented me from showing my evidence to the judge. She made me leave it on a chair in the back of the courtroom so that I wouldn't take it up to the judge. Whatever their motives were, they were NOT in my best interests. I JUST NEEDED A VOICE! Instead, I was silenced from telling what happened and punished for something I didn't do. Now I'm suffering with symptoms of PTSD. I'm a broken human being now.
