Phillips, Kitchings, & Smith

I highly do NOT recommend Katie Bates as an attorney. I hired her in my case and she legally misled me to believe something that wasn't true, I emailed her law firmed multiple times and got NO response, I called continuously after receiving a drawn up court order from her law firm that was wrong and got no type of communication. Then after the drawn up court order was used against me I decided to terminate her services. I requested my billable hours and she had in fact charged me for the calls that I made, the wrong drawn up court order, and even the FREE consultation. I didn't receive the drawn up court order for a little over 3 weeks after the court appearance. She says that I called multiple times but left no message (which is true). She had no rebuttal for the court order being drawn up super late or that it was wrong neither did she have a rebuttal for the multiple emails I sent that were ignored, but I was charged for them reviewing them. Bates Law Firm put me in a impossible situation and took no accountability after causing so much unnecessary confusion and drama. She made my case about her own personal situation. This Law Firm should not be trusted. Don't walk, RUN far away.

I retain this law firm for a contempt of court case they help me out. I had a few issues with the receptionist and not understanding a few things, but the lawyer did do something very unexpected that she surprised me. She seen me during another court case, and stepped in and helped me when she pretty much could’ve told me, good luck buddy for that I would use this company again if needed, but I would gather more information for my own understanding

Katie was an excellent attorney I should have hired her the first time, the outcome probably would have been different. You may not always like what Katie has to say but she is simply advising you the best she can outside of emotions.

If I ever need an Attorney these are the folks, hands down. I know them well. They have helped me in the past. Awesome Attorneys and staff. Can'not say enough good things about this law firm. Very professional, strong and knowledgeable, they get it done.

They helped me in a timely manner, did not break my pockets, responded to every question and concern I had and were very professional. I am very happy, thank you!
