For one, Mr. Kelly took care of my father's will/estate papers with the utmost care and attention. He made it a priority to finish quickly as my father unfortunately did not have much time. Mr. Kelly also helped me with a very difficult divorce. With his extreme professionalism, expert knowledge and understanding the emotional toll it took on me, he patiently guided me thru and worked everything out perfectly. I find James Kelly to be now not only a friend, but even a family member, and definitely my lifelong attorney.

Retaining Russell Knight was the worst decision I have made for myself and my child…read more He specializes in conspiring with opposing counsel to add a GAL/Child Rep. This my friends is when You are paying two attorneys at the same time. Roughly $1025 an hour. When You stop being able to pay $1025 an hour he withdraws. You will hear "Good Luck, your Daughter will need You." I haven't seen mine in two years. Will Not meet clients in person. I would characterize and say to his face anywhere - You are a sleazy, lying bum.

If you are shopping for an attorney, do not hire Russell. My experience with Russell found that…read morehe's unresponsive, only gives vague advice in moments he is available, and continually makes excuses as to why he hasn't followed through (email stuck in drafts, phone died, never received info but actually did). I was supposed to have a simple divorce with a short marriage and no kids. Russell disappeared for weeks at a time, charged me for follow-up emails asking where he is and did not negotiate effectively on my behalf. The worst part, he did not seem to care that he is ineffective. The final straw for me was when Russell blocked my number and passed my case off to Victoria without telling me. I had to find out from my ex that Victoria was now handling my case. After 4 months and $4,000 of fees paid ($7,000 billed) for him to keep stalling, I finally fired him and hired a new attorney. Within one week of hiring my new attorney, she was able to negotiate a settlement that was more fair than what Russell was telling me I either had to take or go to trial. My new attorney used the same facts Russell had at his disposal for four months and kept telling me he "didn't know" what I was entitled to without hiring an actuary. My new attorney figured it out in 24 hours by asking two follow-up questions to OC that Russell never bothered to do. If you're still reading this review, and are considering hiring Russell, proceed with high caution and low expectations. The read I got on Russell was that he was purposely dragging out this simple divorce so he could charge as much as possible. For a skilled no-nonsense attorney that will advocate on your behalf, I highly recommend Rebecca Walsh at Muller Law Firm as she got my divorce done in one day and saved me significant money in the process.

I achieved the result that I wanted by working with them and following their advice (and obviously by not asking them to promise me results that would be impossible under the law).

We were firing a gazillion questions via email and calls daily! Ian took the time to truly listen to our concerns, explain the options clearly, explain the law and build a strategy that was tailored to mom's situation. Throughout the entire process, Ian was consistently responsive, transparent, and patient with any and all questions. What impressed me most was his balance of strength and empathy. In the courtroom, Ian was sharp, prepared, and unwavering -- a true advocate who fought for moms' best interests. Outside the courtroom, he showed genuine care for all of us as a people, not just clients. Expressing empathy and true kindness when we needed it the most. That combination of legal skill and human compassion is rare . I highly recommend Ian to anyone facing a divorce or family law matter. He is not only an outstanding attorney but also a trusted ally. Ian was an incredible source and shoulder for my mom and for my sister and I, always armed with information and strategies. His readiness, clarity, and steady communication gave us all peace of mind in an extremely stressful and tumultuous situation. When Ian was unavailable his assistant Jan, made sure to get all messages and information to Ian immediately! We couldn't have asked for a better attorney to help our mom through such a difficult time. After 3 attorneys in this ordeal, I only wish we had found him first!!! Thank you Ian!!!
