Services
Family Law Attorney
Adoptions
Adoptions in New York State require court involvement. There are times when adoptions arise in the context of a contested custody dispute where one parent has effectively disappeared, but usually they involve adoption agencies and happier circumstances.
Boundary Disputes
Child Custody Disputes
Child custody disputes can arise as an element of a divorce action or as a separate proceeding brought before the Family Court. Among the issues the Court may address are decision-making authority for the child, a parenting time schedule, grandparent visitations rights, and occasionally third-party.
Child Custody Matters
Contested Custody Dispute
Child custody proceedings can be quite involved, and touch upon several areas of the Family Court Act, Domestic Relations Law, hundreds of decisions by the appellate courts, and nuanced rules of evidence when these matters proceed to trial.
Contested Divorce
When spouses decide to part ways there are a number of matters to settle prior to the issuance of a divorce decree. This is usually done by one of two ways: by executing a separation agreement for legal separation for a period of time or by opting out of the marriage immediately.
Contract Review
A contract is a legally enforceable agreement. It is because of this enforceability that all small business owners should have their contracts reviewed by an attorney prior to agreeing to any terms.
Criminal Defense
Contact Kimberly M. Wells, Attorneys at Law if you have been charged with a crime.
Criminal Matters
Custody Proceedings
Divorce Matters
When spouses are simply unable to agree on the distribution of their property, custody of their children, or ongoing support obligations, litigation may be required in the Supreme Court for equitable distribution under the laws of the State of New York.

Law Child Custody
The role of your attorney in a support proceeding is to highlight any reasons for deviation from the formula to ensure that the amount in any order for support is fair. After some time, and under certain circumstances, the court can be re-petitioned to adjust the amount of support.
Legal Separation
Living Wills

Matrimonial Litigation
Neglect
A child neglect proceeding is a civil matter generally brought within the Family Court. In New York, a parent can be found to have neglected a child under a great number of circumstances, many of which are open to judicial interpretation.
Real Estate Law
To ensure a smooth transaction of property it is best to hire an attorney soon in the process of buying or selling your home. From the sale contract, to inspecting the title, to the various items requested by the bank, and to documents required to be filed with the county and state.
Real Property Law
Boundary disputes are settled by bringing an action to quiet title before a court. If there is a boundary dispute or adverse possession claim against your property it will be extremely difficult to sell the land until these matters are taken care of.
Spousal Support
New York and Federal Laws require payments for the support of one’s children and spouse. The amount of those payments are determined by statutory formula. If proven, certain factual considerations permit the court to adjust the payments up or down from the baseline amount.
Title Searching/ Insurance
Kimberly M. Wells, Attorneys at Law act as agents for the issuance of title insurance. When you are purchasing property we will be able to handle all of your title needs in house without the need to involve a separate agent. Our attorneys also offer title searching and examination services.

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness
I’ve always had a great experience with Kimberly Wells when having to create and then several times having to change my Will. Kim is not only professional but personable when taking my concerns regarding my Will into consideration. She asks the all right questions and gets me thinking about situations that I would have never thought about. Her team drafts the documents in a timely manner and gives me a feeling that I am well taken care of. You are certainly in good hands with Kim, I highly recommend her services.

So here we are 4 1/2 years later from our post 2 years into this process, to now 2 1/2 more years to still have this simple, uncomplicated estate not completed.. We have heard excuses, apologies, but no results! It has a feeling of underhandedness about it. We are not sure why, but Ms Wells has a gift for ignoring those who she deems not worth her while, at least in our experience. Consider carefully before you choose her services!

I would like to thank Kimberly and her staff in handling my first time home buying experience with her law firm. Her and her staff were very polite and very professional. She even took the time to explain to me page by page about some documents I received from the seller, which by the way it was on her spare time to answer all of my concerns about those documents. She responded on every email and text that I had questions and concerns and I got answers. The closing went smoothly and on point with all of the documents that had to be signed. Kimberly made herself accessible and told me if I have any other closing related issues pertaining any documents to give her a call. Thank you once again on doing a great job. I would highly recommend Kimberly and her firm.

Was assigned to my daughter as a law gaussian in a family court custody case. Served the pourpose and that’s about the extent of it. She didn’t ease my daughter’s mind a whole lot.

My husband and I have been trying to work with Kim on getting paperwork sorted out for land that has been gifted to us by my mother in law. She was recommended by my mother in law. It has been months and we have been unable to get the paperwork signed or even confirm that it is ready for us to sign. My husband has been calling the office since January this year to arrange a time to go in to take care of the paperwork and has only been able to speak to this attorney once, and is STILL waiting for a proper response on when we can finish the paperwork. I understand these things take time. But it’s been over 3 months now and I am very disappointed in how we have been treated and frustrated. Will be seeking out other options.

Had two appt with her and she cancelled both on the day due to ” unexpected closing.” In all fairness, she offered to move the second appt up during the day, but my time is also scarce and valuable Ms. Wells. Not very professional.
