Our Clients’ Experiences

Kim and Ed represented us during the adoption process at the Kansas City Family Court. We adopted our son who was born in California. Our case was out of the box because we’re a same sex family and therefore, Ed and Kim had to tread new ground as this was probably one of the first cases of the kind in the state. Kim and Ed were very methodical and provided us with excellent expertise. We felt from the start that they knew what they were doing and we always felt comfortable during the process. It was obvious to us that they were very experienced at their job and knew what they were doing and we always felt comfortable during the process. knew the court system and all the stakeholders, including commissioners, very well. We would recommend Kim and Ed again because they are empathetic and know their business, they’re reliable and very easy to talk to. If the occasion arises to use their legal services again we would not hesitate to call on Kim and Ed again.

Kim and Ed represented us in the private adoption of our seven year old son. My husband and I were adopting our second child through a private adoption and we reached out to contacts in our community and the response was overwhelming that we needed to work with Kim and Ed. We would absolutely recommend their legal services to someone. Kim and Ed immediately made us feel that we were a priority and the desire for us to build our family was their #1 focus. Their communication and guidance throughout the process was unmatched and we felt comforted knowing that they were there for us along the way with our best interests at hand.

Kim represented us to petition the probate court for guardianship and custody of our granddaughter. She was very professional and knowledgeable about the legal system. She recommended a course of action to help save two of our grandchildren from a horrible home life and put in a lot of work on the case. I would absolutely recommend Carrington and Moore’s legal services because they know the legal system well and have lots of experience in almost every position in the court room. I think they are the best at what they do. Kim’s professionalism, concern for client’s welfare and vast experience are why I would choose her again anytime I am in need of these legal services.

Ms. Carrington represented me in a contested adoption case. I was seeking to adopt my twin cousins who were in foster care and their foster parents were also seeking to adopt. Kim and Edward were always professional and really cared for my family and I during this time. They provided legal representation that represented what I wished to accomplish in court. I was never pressured into a decision I did not want. They were always honest and sincere; giving me information I needed and wanted concerning the law and my case. Although this is not a case that ruled in my favor, Kim and Ed represented my interest fully, never backing down and provided excellent representation. I would not have chosen a different team to represent me.

Kim and Ed represented my family in 4 adoptions, all of them different, from abandonment to contested by both sets of grandparents. I can honestly say our family would not be the same without all the hard work and dedication to details in the cases they handled for us, and that is what helped us win the custody of two of our children. The case was a severe case of abuse and neglect that took its toll personally on all of us, but never stopped Kim and Ed from putting in all of the necessary resources to make it happen. I consider them to be the best adoption attorneys in the area and I thank them for making our family complete. I would absolutely recommend them and have done so, even in requesting a reference to an attorney outside their scope of work. The reason I would recommend them is for their reliability and dedication to each client they work with.
