What recent reviews say

Andrea King and her team deliver solid family law outcomes for clients who work well with their streamlined, online-first approach. Many praise her divorce negotiation skills, quick responses to queries, and genuine, direct advice. However, a vocal minority report frustration with the Base Camp app replacing phone calls, delayed edits to documents, and particularly, aggressive follow-up to critical feedback. Unresolved trust account funds and disputes over complaint processes have left some clients feeling unheard and vulnerable.

The firm succeeds with straightforward matters and clients comfortable working asynchronously online. Those expecting phone access, hands-on hand-holding during complex family disputes, or transparent dispute resolution may find the model limiting. Andrea's responsiveness to praise stands in sharp contrast to her handling of complaints, raising questions about consistency and service resilience under pressure.

Common questions

Yes, Genuine Legal offers a 1-hour free initial consultation to discuss your legal matter and next steps.
Does Genuine Legal offer fixed fees?
Yes, fixed-fee options are available for straightforward legal matters. The business notes these work best when the issue is clear-cut, though family law can be unpredictable.
