				I hired Mrs. Kessler to represent me in my divorce and paid approximately $30,000 in legal fees. My legal name change was discussed at the time of hiring and throughout the divorce process.

Despite this, the name change was not included in the final divorce decree. This omission was never communicated to me. I only discovered the issue later when attempting to complete the name change.

Nearly two years later, I am now being told it will cost an additional $400 to correct something that should have been handled during the original proceedings. I am extremely disappointed in the lack of attention to detail and accountability, especially given the amount paid for representation.

I would not recommend this attorney to anyone expecting thorough follow-through on agreed-upon matters.

				I have known Shelly and her team now for a couple years dealing with my custody case. I can speak only the truth when it comes to the time and dedication they put into my case over that time period. If Strength and passion is something you or someone you know needs in your corner, that’s what they represent. We felt heard, cared for and supported on all our interactions and they were able to support me and my wife in ways I don’t think others could. I am forever grateful for Shelly and Lacey. I feel god places people in your life when you need a wing to hang on to in rough times, and they were our wing.

I am forever at their side, and recommend them to anyone.

				I cannot say enough great things about this firm. I have finally neared the end of an absolute nightmare of a divorce. I honestly don’t think I would have gotten through this without the help of Shelly and Lacy. Shelly is an amazing lawyer and so good at what she does. I know my divorce was not an easy one for them and they helped navigate the process and were professional and have so much knowledge. They were both available when I had questions and they were on top of everything. In the end, settlement was fair and I am happy with it. Shelly fought for me and I cannot express my appreciation enough. I HIGHLY recommend this law firm, you will not be disappointed!

				Mrs. Kestler has been one of the best lawyers Ive dealt with. I searched and searched for months and came across their law firm online. When I met with her she was very professional, empathetic and understanding. She has helped me gain custody of my children, helped me get through the court process without a worry. They handled everything professionally and tentatively. I'd highly recommend her and her office. I had allot of questions, called all the time and they helped me through the process and gave me knowledge about the laws of custody and how things work. I truly appreciate her and her team for everything they have done for me. If you're looking for someone who will fight tooth and nail for you I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!!!! Mrs Kestler is the best in the county and will help you wholeheartedly. Thank y'all!!!
