  I have been meaning to leave this review for a year! My divorce was final a year ago this week. No one wants to go through a divorce or anything involving child custody, but Kelli and Michael made the process much better than I could have asked for. They both are so kind and caring and not only kept me updated on the case but actually checked in on me and my emotional well being because they knew it could be emotionally taxing. Could not ask for better lawyers!

  I have worked with Kelli Haas and her team several times throughout the past several years and have always been pleased with her and her team. Most recently we worked with Michael Small. He was very professional, always explained the process thoroughly, and responsive to questions. I would highly recommend Kelli Haas and Associates for anyone needing family court representation.

  Kelli has been our attorney for more than 3 years now. She and her associates are great. They have helped us walk through some very sticky situations for our business AND personal interests. We not only feel they do their best to protect us legally, but also have a personal investment in our well-being and success. We could not ask for a better team!!

  Kelli Haas and her team have represented us several times over the past 3 years in both personal and business-related matters, and we could not be happier with her level of dedication and professionalism. She always puts our BEST interest first. IF you need a lawyer, she and her team are the BEST!

  Kelli and Michael helped our family through a really difficult, delicate situation with our daughter. They gave us wonderful advice and helped us stand up for ourselves and protect our daughter. They were both very easy to talk to, great listeners, timely in their response and appropriate in their action. If we ever needed legal counsel again, we wouldn’t hesitate to call them!

  Kelli and Michael took on a tough case for me and in a short time we got a favorable outcome. They were both extremely knowledgeable and willing to help me when I needed help the most. Don’t wait! I just wish I had hired them sooner.

  I contacted Kelli Hass & Associates to assist with a conservatorship for a family I was helping in a real estate transaction. After consulting with Kelli, we agreed to work with Michael Small. We were under an almost insurmountable time crunch and I needed a team that could make this happen. Michael was a true professional, and worked tirelessly to ensure everything was handled. There were times I grew frustrated with the entire process and all the challenges but Michael always stayed calm which helped to keep me calm. At times, it seemed the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution within our timeline would be impossible, but Michael remained positive and continued to power through. Not only was Michael able to assist this family with a conservatorship for their loved one, but he helped save their family home from a bank foreclosure. This family and I are eternally grateful and highly recommend Michael Small for legal help.

  Thank you Michael and Kelli for helping me with my legal matter. Kelli and the team was very thorough with explaining the my options in regards to my legal agreement.

  I am an attorney and can attest that Kelli and her team (Bill & Emily) provided me with excellent counsel and representation in a most professional manner. Kelli's response times to my needs in short order are most appreciated. I highly recommend this firm to anyone who might need counsel in the areas that they practice!

  I have been on the same legal side as KH a few times and it has been successful every time. They will not allow you to be overly optimistic unless there is sufficient reason to be. They are down to earth lawyers with some great experience. The "New Guy" from California is fantastic and is learning the language well. LOL I hope he is very successful here. If you need an approachable and easy to talk to law firm, call them first.

  Couldn't have picked better partners to help work through an agreed divorce involving minor children. They understood and supported my wish to keep the situation as amicable and level as possible, offering practical guidance throughout the process while making sure we didn't overlook any important details. I appreciated the expertise and professionalism of the whole team and, in particular, credit Bill's empathy and understanding with making a difficult life situation suck just a little bit less.
