Michael D
Honest, patient, and genuinely on my side
I worked with Kay on a complex and emotionally difficult employment settlement earlier this year, and I can't recommend her highly enough. What I valued most was her honesty. From the first conversation, she was clear-eyed about the strengths and weaknesses of my position and gave me real advice rather than what I wanted to hear. When I was set on outcomes she thought were unrealistic, she said so. When she saw genuine leverage, she pushed hard. Her drafting is excellent, and her judgment about pace and strategy across a long negotiation was consistently sound. She was patient with me over months of back-and-forth, took time to explain her thinking, and let me drive the strategic decisions while making sure I had the information to make them well. Beyond the technical work, what stood out was her judgment on the human side. She noticed when I was making decisions under stress and gently pushed back when appropriate. She managed the pace to protect my wellbeing, not just my legal position. If you're facing an employment matter and looking for someone who will give you honest advice, work patiently through a complex situation, and treat you as a person rather than a case number, I'd recommend Kay without hesitation.
