Forrest Law Office, LLC

I have used Kathleen Forrest for 2 cases now. In my opinion and from my experience, I would highly recommend her to anyone. She knows Family Law! She always returned my calls and messages in a timely manner. Sometimes I would send her an e-mail on a weekend, not expecting an answer until Monday. She responded even on a weekend! As a male, I was hesitant to use a female attorney to represent me in my divorce proceedings. There was no need for concern. She represented my interests fully. She is completely and totally trustworthy. She will tell you what you NEED to hear, not just what you WANT to hear, and to me, that was invaluable! Thank you Kathleen for a job expertly done!

Well, I say just flat out no. Do not use Kathleen if you are a couple who want something done. She treated us like we were getting divorced, when all we wanted was help getting a trust set up and work through some areas on how the financial side would be distributed. She was very kind to my wife, very rude to me. She only listens to one side and didn't care to hear the other side. She asked pointed questions but would not allow anything more that just a yes or no answer. She treated the questions as if she was in court. She was hired to represent both my wife and I, but she only wanted to represent my wife. Kathleen is toxic for couples in my opinion. Stay far, far away.

Kathleen really helped me through a rough 6 months of divorce procedures. While my ex-husband and I were still living together throughout the process and many things we had figured out already, there were many issues we couldn’t agree on. Kathleen took the “bull behind the horn” so to speak and made sure that I was being protected and received what I should have in my divorce. She calmed my fears in many ways, told me when I needed to suck up and deal with issues I didn’t want to, and encouraged me through the whole process. This is not to say we didn’t have our disagreements on how things should be done. I had very specific things I wanted to be spelled out to protect myself and my child because I don’t like ambiguity and I know my ex would take advantage of that. We prepped as if we would be going to trial, however, we were able to mediate the last of what needed to be decided. Kathleen ended up having to draw up our final divorce papers, because after 3 weeks my ex’s lawyer, Joe Frick, still could not get the final divorce paperwork right and it would take us less time because they needed filed. I would (& have) recommend Kathleen to anyone who is looking for an attorney. I’m grateful for all her hard work and helping me to understand what to expect and getting me through the last 6 months.

Thanks attorney Ms. Forrest, who is elegant and proficient in law. She has provided me with high-quality legal services.

Just shockingly poor!
