Both Courtney and Bronson are very professional and responsive. They will make you feel like you are their only client. They are very competent, kind and compassionate. When things do not turn out how you thought they would, it is nice to have someone caring and compassionate in your corner.

Courtney at Howell and Kidd Attorney was SUPER helpful in a legal guardianship case. She was quick, easy to talk with, and accessible all through the process. I would recommend her to anyone wanting legal help!

Courtney and Bronson took all the worry out of my divorce process. They handled the majority of the communication so that I did not have to make contact and made sure that I received a fair settlement. I appreciate how smoothly things went!

Courtney Kidd prepared my pre-nuptial agreement quickly and inexpensively. She took the time to explain every aspect of the document and answer my questions. I highly recommend Howell and Kidd Attorneys.

Courtney Howell-Kidd, J.D. - Wow! What an "AMAZING" attorney! I am a physician and I found Courtney to be very professional, honest, fees were reasonable, she met with me on a weekend at least 3 different times, very prompt with e-mail responses, convenient east end location and to top it all off, my divorce was resolved quickly! THANKS Courtney, you are THE BEST !!!

I deeply regret having to write a bad review. I am a man who will still give a $10 tip when receiving bad service while out to eat. This is something that has to be spoken of. My girlfriend hired Courtney for her services regarding visitation to her child. She was given a $1500 retainer fee. Before filing visitation documents, my girlfriend was served papers for her daughter to be adopted. Courtney would NOT take the adoption case, she stated "They are not the same case." (Same child same mother) I will not rant to long, because I could write a documentary about the poor services my girlfriend received. Not one time did Courtney ever show up in the same courtroom with the client that hired her. The Affidavit that was created by her was a joke, it looked as if a child had wrote it. Very poor professionalism, very disappointed about the law practicing services. Since Courtney never done anything for my girlfriends case, she asked for a refund. Courtney charged nearly a thousand dollars for services she did not provide.
I. There was moments where Courtney questioned representing my girlfriend because she knew the other attorney on the case.
II. Courtney suggested things for my girlfriend to do, which made her look foolish and dull-witted inside the courtroom.
III. Did not send detailed billing statement (by law she is required too)
IV. Never showed up to court for her
V. Nearly one thousand dollars for an underwritten affidavit.

Very poor services.

She was recommended to me by more than one person. They talked very highly of her. I called when I was going through a divorce almost two years ago and was told to email her. I thought why have a receptionist if they aren't going to set up appointments or do anything. I was once again recommended to use her. I thought I'd give her another shot. Once again I was told to email her my situation and she'd get back to me. It took her several days to return my email. I immediately returned hers and I'm still waiting on a response.

Courtney Howell-Kidd is amazing! We adopted from Arizona and she handled a complicated adoption case like a BOSS. Her advice is honest, she is quick to respond to any questions or concerns, and her prices are fair. She really took an interest in our family and that meant a lot. Our final court proceedings went off without a hitch and now our daughter is officially ours! My husband and I would recommend her to anyone adopting a baby and needs a lawyer to represent them!

Courtney Howell-Kidd is a an excellent lawyer. She listened to my concerns and helped me develop a strategy for dealing with my child support issue. On a personal level, I also feel that she guided me to make some good decisions for the future of my daughter and that type of genuine concern is hard to find these days. I would highly recommend that anyone seeking family law advice contact her.

Courtney is amazing!! Not only was she prompt in responding to me and setting up a consultation she was very easy to talk with. I went in feeling helpless and had high anxiety and just a few moments with her I was at ease and knew I wanted her representing me. She actually cares and proved it when she told me she would make some calls because I might not need her services. Sure enough she was right and notified me the next day. On top of all this she still kept in contact with me about my situation. I am so thankful to her and glad I know an honest and caring family attorney. Thank you courtney

I met with Courtney Howell-Kidd regarding a custody issue. I am very happy with the service and care I was given by both her and Bronson. Before coming to Courtney I was in the dark on what to do with a custody battle. Courtney not only talked me thru each step by step process but gave me valuable information on steps that we could take to prevent an actual custody battle in court. My daughter's father and I were able to come to an agreement and come into Courtney's office together and mediate without fighting. I appreciate all the work Courtney put into our case and couldn't have done this without her. I recommend Howell & Kidd to everyone!

Courtney is an amazing person! My husband and I really enjoyed working with her! Her heart for making a difference and loving people makes her stand out from all the rest! She was there for us whenever we had a question and guiding us through our whole process . Her prices are resonable, but her love and compassion for others shines through her countless hours of work she devotes to you! She is truly the best attorney in Louisville!! If your looking for someone who cares, loves, works hard, honest, professional and is thorough making sure your case wins, Courtney is your choice ! She is an inspiration to all who get to work with her!

I simply can’t say enough about Howell and Kidd. Courtney handled my dissolution so well. I received a recommendation for her from a friend, and I would never consider using anyone else. I have recommended her to family, as well as friends, who have been more than pleased with her services. She is friendly and more than fair. She always goes the extra mile for her clients. She provides prompt responses and thorough answers to questions. This little lady is fierce but carries herself with such class, dignity and integrity.

Courtney has been a "go to" resource for me throughout my career as an attorney and I frequently refer conflict cases to her. She is attentive, good-natured and very knowledgeable. Courtney is definitely a trusted professional for me and you can be assured that you will have competent representation at the highest level.

Cortney delivers. She knows law. She is able to discuss a situation with the opposing side, people she knows through her career, and come up with resolutions that can change your life.
Resolve problems to bring sides together. She is someone you can talk to and she, not only listens, she hears you. I’m thankful we chose Howell and Kidd!!!

I found Courtney nine years ago when I initially went through my divorce.Over the years I continued to consult with her about child support issues.She eventually introduced me to her brother because he had tremendous knowledge on that particular subject.I'm always impressed with how prompt that they are at returning my emails.Love the family practice.They even have their mom in on the action as their receptionist.I feel so good knowing they're there for me and my children..

When it comes to any type of family law concerns, Courtney is who you want to have in your corner! I went in for my consultation a complete mess and shed many tears, by the time I left I felt as if my troubles had all been washed away. She made me feel heard, she made me feel supported and she gave me a comfort that is hard to find when speaking with attorneys! At my mediation, she fought for me, kept me assured and didn’t leave until I WAS comfortable (even missing her dinner reservation with her fiancé!). She communicates quickly and is always very friendly. I cannot recommend or praise her highly enough! If you are needing any kind of legal advice/support-contact her. You will not be sorry!

Courtney walked us through our inter-state adoption process from start to finish and was amazing! She is responsive, organized, enthusiastic and is passionate about serving families. I would recommend her for any and everyone who's even thinking about adoption.

My wife and I are foster parents and in the course of our fostering, we made a connection with a family who asked us to adopt their newborn son. Since this was a private adoption outside of the foster care system, we had no idea where to turn for an attorney and we feared we would never be able to afford the expense. After reaching out to several family attorneys and being discouraged by outrageous fees, phone calls not being returned, and conflicting advice on how best to proceed, our adoption agency recommended Courtney. Our experience with her has been amazing. She was quick to respond to texts and emails, is extremely knowledgeable about the adoption process and was able to answer all of our questions, and her rates were much more reasonable than the other attorneys we had spoken to. She always made us feel like our case was a top priority, and we were told by many observers that ours was one of the fastest and least expensive adoptions they had ever seen. We were very blessed to have Courtney as our advocate in this process and we would highly recommend her to anyone in need of an adoption attorney.

Courtney helped my husband and I with the adoption of our son. Working with her was a wonderful experience. She was very knowledgeable and patient in answering all of our questions. She was also so responsive and available throughout the process. It was such a relief to work with someone who knows what they are talking about and knows people to help speed the process along after just having waited so long to match and bring our baby home. She helped us overcome the legal side of things quickly and efficiently. We will definitely use her again!

I was referred to Courtney by a friend, and could not be more grateful! She is extremely professional, yet easy to talk to. From the start, she focused on my situation as unique (though I'm certain it is not;); applying her knowledge of family law with veracity, giving me a clear response as to what to expect going forward. Courtney answers every concern, every email in a timely manner. I feel much more comfortable with my ongoing situation knowing I am represented by Courtney and her firm, which means the world to me. As an added bonus, she is very expedient with the services she provides so as to keep costs down. I will recommend Howell & Kidd Attorneys to to anyone!

Sometimes, life hands you lemons and all you can think is "what do I do with THIS??".
Courtney Howell-Kidd can answer that for you.
For me, it was a divorce. The dissolution, the house, finances, almost everything (kids were not in the picture) ... Courtney helped with it. Diplomatic and practical; she listened, proposed, drafted, and submitted everything for a flat fee. Months later, she is still answering my little questions with speed and professionalism I wish more lawyers should emulate. She usually answers the questions within a few hours. Certainly within a business day.
Recommended by a friend, I will certainly recommend her to anyone needing Family Law advice or services. Take the 30 minute consultation, you won't regret it.

I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer. Courtney was regularly available via e-mail even at odd hours of the evening and morning. I am now living in the Indianapolis area and Courtney worked with my schedule so we could conveniently meet in Louisville. After 13 years separated/divorced, my ex-wife and I went through mediation for the first time. Courtney was spot on guiding me through the process. Courtney was on time, prepared and helped negotiate fair resolutions to our differences. I cannot imagine utilizing any other attorney to protect my interests. - Josh VanWagoner

There are times in one's life that are so stressful that it's difficult to move on. Having been at that place I knew that I needed an attorney to guide me into forward motion. What a brilliant choice I made in retaining Courtney Howell-Kidd! She combines professionalism, intellect, knowledge of the law, and attention to detail with honesty and a strong and genuine sense of compassion. Her expertise and support enabled me to trust her advice completely and finalize my divorce. She was always quick to respond to a telephone call or email, always attentive to me during our appointments, and definitely on and by my side. I will definitely engage her again if I ever have a need for an attorney. She's the best!

I recently read great reviews about this law office and was looking forward to calling for a consultation and possibly hiring their services. I called and the receptionist asked "what kind of case". I briefly explained and she brashly responded "we cant help you" and hung up on me as I was asking if she could help point me in the correct direction.

I was really dumbfounded and taken aback considering all of the nice reviews especially about Mrs. Howell. I called back only for her to answer with a rude "Yes" and I let the receptionist know that her actions were a representation of the office and she really brought it down greatly. How important our front desk people can be when left with the task of representing your brand. I hope she does not continue to pull down their great reviews.

I HIGHLY reccommed Courtney, she may be a small package but she packs a HUGE punch! Courtney goes above and beyond for her clients. I went into the whole divorce thing completely unsure of what to expect. She was there every step of the way fighting for me and my children to make sure that we would be taken care of once it was said and done. She is quick to respond to emails and never once left me in the dark about the process. Thank you Courtney for being there when I needed you the most!

Courtney and Bronson went above and beyond. They when as far as going and seeing my ex husband in Indiana jail to get him to sign papers. Too helping me stop my child support after my sister and brother-in-law adopted my kids. They did a great job in making this as stress free as they could. I will be telling everyone about them. Courtney and Bronson, you all are awesome. Thank you for everything.

I'm very satisfied with my experience using Courtney Kidd for my dissolution and property settlement. She was successful motivating the opposing attorney to quit dragging his feet and bring this action to a timely close.

Her associate and her staff were friendly and helpful, as well.

I wish that I could give more than just 5 stars. Courtney is an amazing attorney and worked so hard to get my case resolved. She is a very kind and hard-working person and whenever I had a question, she responded right away. Courtney always had my back and never tried to talk me into settling; she always made sure to relay to the other attorney exactly what my offer was. If I ever have another legal issue, I will forever refer Courtney. Additionally, she helped my grandmother and grandfather a few months ago. My grandfather is a mailman and was bitten by a dog when delivering mail. The owners would not turn the dog over or tell my grandfather where the dog was to have him assessed for rabies. Before my grandfather had to have the horrible shots for rabies, Courtney helped reach out to the owners and persuaded them to have the dog assessed. She did such an amazing job and kept this from getting any uglier than it could have. Courtney is friendly, respectful, and very fair!

I was referred to Courtney and her brother Bronson through my bankruptcy attorney and they have been so great. I have two cases and I needed to focus on just one at a time. Courtney helped me with mediation on my current divorce even though she wasn't listed as my attorney. With that same case Bronson saw me in court for motion hour and came up to make sure I was ok. He wasn't there for me but it really touched me that he would come up, ask me what was going on and give advice. He told me I was doing the right thing and doing a good job. It made my nerves calm down and let me handle things so much better hearing that from him. They both are amazing attorneys and people. I would refer anyone to them. They are wonderful and so down to earth, easy to talk to and supportive. Not once have I received a harsh or mean word from them, even though I have done some stupid stuff.

I had searched around and spoken to two other family court lawyers before my parents reminded me of Courtney, who handled their living will. After speaking with her one time, I could tell that she had helped many previous clients in quite similar situations. Then I met her, and was more than impressed with her level of professionalism. She understood every concern that I had about my son and explained in detail the order of events leading up to mediation. In mediation, she was the best advocate for my son and I that I could ever ask for! She got me more than would be possible in court. Needless to say, the opposing party was less than thrilled. I am so grateful for her knowledge, patience, and passion. She is absolutely great at what she does! I have recommended her to all of my family and friends. Thank you!

Courtney is a phanominal lawyer! She really shows compassion towards her clients. After I was denied to see my children I came across her name and went to speak with her. Since all that happened she has went above and beyond to help me get my kids back. She is super easy to talk to as well! I had consulted afew lawyers before her and she was the only one who I could tell was actually listening to me instead of seeing me as dollar signs. One of my favorite things about her is she is easy to get ahold of, this is a major problem I had before.

Highly recommended!

Courtney drew up an agreement for me. I was in a rush and she saw me very shortly after a quick phone consultation. She was compassionate and professional. She told me what my options were and gave good advice. Courtney was always responsive and helpful when I had questions or concerns. I will continue to trust her with my business, and I will wholeheartedly recommend her to others.

Don't Let her Sweet innocent look and gentle temperament Fool you. She's A Beast!
Courtney knows the law, and she really knows "Family Law"! I went into my divorce very scared and blind. Thinking that a male had no chance in the court system! SHE PROVED ME WRONG! As a male, I was totally amazed how she handled everything. She fixed it that I would come out of the relationship WAY better off than I imagined. She works for you! She knows people! The Opposing Attorney probably will not have a chance. I strongly Recommend Courtney ! I thank God for putting her in my path!

I came to Mr. Howell via my mother June 2013, on a life changing immigration case that displaced my life for a year and a half. Mr. Howell learned I came to the USA October 23th 1976 and was NEVER documented as a child, until March of 2013. I was fired from my new job, leaving my newly college graduate child taking care of me. I'm devastated but I'm calm, I guess because Mr. Howell was a calming force that entered my life and told me everything will be okay. Long story Short, I'm now a Permanent Resident, a college student, Rehired by the same hospital that fired me, just celebrated 1 year, and I went home my birth country London England just this past February. I'm so blessed and I know Mr. Howell is partly responsible for that. God Blessed me with a great attorney who changed my life forever!! 37 years of NOT knowing, thank you for believing in me!! I love you and if I can do anything I'll be there always!! Maria

When I found myself in the unfortunate position of going through a divorce, a trusted friend referred me to Courtney Howell-Kidd. After a generous free consultation, Courtney gently and eloquently walked me through the difficult divorce process. She was always quick to respond to questions and concerns, giving me the sound advice I needed. Courtney said things I needed to hear to help keep me grounded.
Everyone in the office at Howell and Kidd was professional and kind to all who walked through the doors. I highly recommend the services of Howell and Kidd Attorneys.

I have had the pleasure of not only doing work for Howell & Kidd on a business level but I am also a client. Their office is very easygoing and has a laid back atmosphere. Courtney Howell has a way of making a person feel very relaxed and even though I had a lot of questions and felt my situation was complicated, she managed to talk me down and I left my first visit feeling like everything was going to work out. It also has been great that she is willing to meet with me on the weekends.

I was referred to Howell and Kidd Attorneys by a friend. I was under emotional distress of preparing to deal with family court and didn't know where to begin. I have worked mostly with Courtney, who quickly responded to my questions, gave me expert legal advice, and most importantly helped provide me with support, confidence, and courage to go through the legal matters at hand. She is incredibly fair with her prices and has always treated me with respect. I highly recommend Howell and Kidd to anyone that is looking for an attorney, as this has been the best referral anyone has given to me.
