Employee Testimonials

We handle our team the same way we handle our clients’ cases – with care and compassion.

Shelley regularly checks in with me regarding my caseload and my needs for support. She genuinely cares about my work/life balance and routinely provides coaching and opportunities to ask questions. As a young lawyer, it is important to me that I work for a firm that values ethics, client-relationships, and legal excellence. I found that at Wilson Kester – the Empowered Divorce Source.

All of my coworkers are always ready to help, to answer questions if need be, and the environment is super collaborative. I feel like any ideas I might suggest for change within the firm or a new idea will be seriously considered.

Wilson Kester is a small company with an emphasis on empathy and compassion. It’s got a lot of people from very diverse career backgrounds, and everyone is focused on improving the organization and themselves. People are kind, and there’s none of the protectionism/defensiveness I’ve experienced at larger organizations.
