Kyle is so knowledgeable and understanding. He really listens to what you want and gives the best course of action. I love that he is straight forward and lets you know all the possibilities. He works hard for your desired outcome and really cares about his clients. I?m so glad I had Kyle on my side through my divorce and I would highly recommend him to anyone.

The Short Law firm was great to work with, while other law firms wouldn't even take the time to review our case, Kyle Short quickly responded to my call and responded confidently about taking our adoption case. Kyle takes the time to answer all questions, and meticulously lays out the process so there is no guess work. Kyle is very personable, understanding and a great listener. I deeply appreciate his expertise and diligence in helping us achieve our adoption goals.

Met Kyle Short to see about handling my divorce. Kyle was up front and professional with the processes and steps I needed to take. He ensured my needs were not only addressed but met and, in some instances, exceeded. Kyle was always there to answer questions and stay on top of my case. What should have been a simple divorce case became anything but routine. Very thorough and saw my case through to the very end. Kyle Short and his firm was the right choice.

Kyle did an outstanding job representing me in my divorce. He was highly competent and very punctual. He is also highly ethical and caught mistakes my ex wife?s attorney made that would have affected the outcome for her. Kyle helped me get everything I was pursuing in mediation. If you find yourself in the unfortunate situation of divorce I can?t think of a better person to have on your team.

I initially hired Short Law Firm in April 2010 to response to two(2) frivolous lawsuits filed by my ex-wife. Kyle Short defended me very well and won both cases. I was very pleased with Kyle's attention to detail and legal strategy. I was so pleased that 10 years later in 2020 when I needed representation to sale a house that I owned with my ex-wife, Short Law Firm was my first call. Again, Kyle won my case. I would not hesitate to hire the Short Law Firm again if I ever need legal representation. If you ever need legal representation, I encourage you to call Short Law Firm first. Carl Hunter

It?s not pleasant to be in a situation to need a lawyer. However, Kyle was a pleasure to work with and we?ll use him again if the need arises. He?s a great communicator, deeply knowledgeable of the law, and was very efficient.

Kyle Short was a pleasant surprise. I was recommended to him, being told he would make it as simple as possible. During such an emotional time we all can lose are focus and get caught up into the drama. Kyle did a great job keeping me on target. When my emotions would start getting the best of me he would redirect my thought process and help me remember what the goal was. I always felt his concept was to make the divorce process as short and fair as he could. As much as I give him rave reviews, I truly hope I never have to use him again. That is being said as a positive humorous statement.

Kyle and his team have been AMAZING in successfully getting everything we asked for regarding my son getting custody of my grandson. He walked my son thru what the judge would ask and made my son feel comfortable. From the very beginning of this long process (due to Covid and the snow storm of 2021), Kyle has made sure that my Grandbaby was the top priority.

Kyle just thank you. The day I talked to him he was on top of it and got me my son fast. I now have full custody of my son and on the birth certificate. Honestly don?t know what to do without Kyle. And I?m not the best person with responding so he was amazing with me and made sure I had my paper work and everything in order for my case. THANK YOU KYLE. Just thank you so much.

Kyle Is a people whisperer. He was able to negotiate things from my exwife and other people associated with my case that I would have not thought possible. He has the touch of the common man. I never felt that he talked down to me.

Kyle came highly recommended to me by a good friend to handle my divorce, and he did not disappoint. Kyle put me at ease from the moment I met him, and made the entire process as painless as possible. I couldn't be happier with my decision to hire Kyle.

He was very intuitive and readily accessible. With the quarantine, things needed to be adjusted do to the enacted rules, he was able to develop a plan and we were able to push forward with my case and prosper.

"My family has had the opportunity to work with Kyle Short as our attorney for over four (4) years, including numerous court and trial appearances, as we have had to deal with a divorce case, custody case, grandparent custody case, and a modification of custody case. Mr. Short has always been extremely professional, while still making us feel completely taken care of. He is accessible, responsive, knowledgeable, and detailed, passionate about our cases, and produced great results for us time and time again. He also has a wicked sense of humor and is really handsome, but also very down to earth. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Short to anyone seeking counsel for any type of legal issue, divorce, or family law case."

I highly recommend Short Law Firm! Kyle was very helpful and informative during my divorce process, and he always responded in a timely manner. Going through a divorce is not easy and very difficult, but Kyle made the entire process as smooth and easy as can be. I was so fortunate to have Kyle as my attorney every step of the way!

Highly recommend. I have known Kyle Short for 13 years now. I knew within the first few minutes of that initial consult that he was kind, caring, and invested in guiding me through the legal process to understand my options and rights. He included a custody clause in the divorce decree that helped my situation and has come in handy multiple times since then. When my thoughts turn to negative what if thoughts in fear, he refocuses me on the facts, the positives, and that my job is to protect my child & give him a good life, and that I am only legally required to abide by what is in the divorce decree. Bottom line: He listens, he knows the law, and I trust his judgement in times of legal turmoil.

This man just takes your money. He is full of lies and highly unknowledable. He even shows up late and rarely answers calls or emails? Find better options, stay far far away

We did not represent you, you have never been a client of our firm, and you and our firm have never had any contact, written, in person, or on the telephone, and further there is no record of your name in any county where our firm practices, so your fake negative review is just for the purpose of harassment and would be completely untrue IF we actually did represent you.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
