I'm certainly impressed by Ms. Kivett, from her professionalism, to her ability to gain deep…read moreknowledge of a complex case, to how she interacted with other attorneys, to her performance at trial before a judge with high standards, and lastly, to how she sincerely cared about the welfare of my children. My case crossed into another jurisdiction, so I was involved with other attorneys and judges. I have also worked with other attorneys on this same matter in the past -- but without complete resolution -- so I was able to compare her work with plenty of other good attorneys, and I can say she is phenomenal. Yes, her rates are higher, but her work is worth it. I would recommend only going to her if your case is just, though: Her ability to be remarkably candid where others waver brings out hidden truth. She will tell you boldly if you need to get your situation in order, too. Her ability to quickly navigate the conversation to the essential information, but also to help clients who are going through difficult emotional situations, left me with a feeling that I was in very competent hands throughout. When I was looking at several attorneys early in the case, knowing that I needed the best, I asked someone who works with attorneys all the time what he thought of her, since he was recommending another. He said, carefully: "You should know this about Amanda. She... is a warrior," almost as if that was more than I needed in my situation. I could see his point, but instead, I knew that was exactly what I wanted, since this was the second encounter in four years. I wanted to conclude the case once and for all, if I could. That is what happened. When the case was completed, and the judgment was what Ms. Kivett predicted would happen (even though I was worried about other possible outcomes), I knew what the warrior comment meant: Her trial presentation was fierce, intelligent, well-informed, and persuasive. Not someone I would want to go against. The temporary order from the judge gave our side what Ms. Kivett had requested, and later, the full order went into all the details Ms. Kivett had provided, to make clear why the judgment was so strongly in my favor.

Met her in her office despite the pandemic going on. I was pleasantly surprised. The office was…read morevery clean. Had to call when you arrived and have a mask when you entered. They have masks and hand sanitizer readily available as soon as you walk in the door. We met in a conference room while social distancing. Everything was very professional and well thought out to be convenient yet still conscious of the current situation. Now to Amanda the lawyer. She was great. Again, very professional, listened, made sure to understand my point of view, candid with her responses, and very knowledgeable of different strategies to try and accomplish what I wanted. She was worth every penny, even though her rate was more than fair. Would you highly recommend.

I hired James Thompson of Edelman and Thompson to handle my accident case. The whole experience…read moreexceeded my expectations tenfold. Having never required the services of a lawyer before I didn't know what to expect. James and his team kept me in the loop while taking the stress and uncertainty off my shoulders. They handled dealing with the insurance company so it was one less thing to me and my family to worry about. James and his team were compassionate and honest, I felt I could place my trust in them to handle my case to the best degree. If I or my family members need a lawyer again it will be an easy decision who to call. I recommend James to anyone unsure whether they need a lawyer after an accident. My opinion is that it can't hurt to call because the consultation is free. Personally, my experience with Edelman and Thompson was positive and now I know I was better off with a lawyer than without. They really went above and beyond for me.

She was incredibly helpful, taking the time to explain the differences in process and pricing between a trust and a deed. I especially appreciated her diligence--she even took the time to consult with Attorney Nathan Williams to double-check the details and ensure the advice she was giving us was solid. After they realized my mother lives in California while the property is in Kansas, Jo went out of her way to help us find a lawyer licensed in both states. Even though we didn't end up needing their services for this specific case, the honesty and effort Jo and Nathan put in were outstanding. It's rare to find a firm that puts the client's best interests first like this. Highly recommended!

When we first spoke, I was very happy, as Mr. Quitmeier is very pleasant in conversation. I…read moreexplained my situation with a car dealership and he said it would be easy to write the letter I was requesting. He seemed so confident and acted as if it were no big deal, so I sent him an e-mail with all pertinent pieces of information, including a good deal of research I'd already done, and I half-expected to have the letter the next day, based on what he communicated during our conversation. Fast-forward two weeks, and I've heard nothing, so I get back in touch to see the status, and I'm passed off to a paralegal, who asks me for some information I've already provided and wants to set up a phone meeting. I explain it's much easier for me to converse via e-mail, and she agrees, then days go by without receiving the questions via e-mail. Three more months of this sort of interaction transpire with her saying she's going to e-mail me or setting up phone appointments that she no-shows after I've arranged my day around being available to her. In the end, they submitted the letter directly to the dealership without first having me review it. It contained typos and did not include the demands I asked for in the beginning, which I have in writing that Mr. Quitmeier agreed was the right approach. Instead, they called the dealership a few more times and were apparently ignored, so they claimed they'd done all they could, and informed me it was not safe to take my vehicle to that dealership anymore, because we've angered them. I ended up with no money, a lot of wasted time, and now I can evidently never own a Honda without driving 25 min to have it serviced at the next dealership. Our last interaction was in January, when I asked for a document stating what calls were made to the dealership, but have yet to receive it. Mr. Quitmeier and his assistant were always pleasant when speaking to them, but their performance did not come close to matching their conversation.

After switching from another firm, I finally felt like someone was genuinely fighting for me.

What impressed me most was how hard they fought for me. They went above and beyond and secured a significantly better settlement than my previous law firm was pursuing. I truly felt like they were invested in getting the best possible outcome for me. I'm incredibly grateful to Nathan Troutwine and the entire team at Northland Injury Law.
