She's really amazing. She lifted a burden off my shoulders by assisting with my court paperwork for Family Court in SC. I could not have gotten through these hearings without her

I can absolutely tell you if you’re looking for a top notch, quality, all around power house that does whatever takes to get the job done…look no further! Kia did an incredible job from start to finish.
No complaints, super positive & on point! I can tell you the next time I’m in need of a Notary or Paralegal it’s a no brainer! On top of that, I have to say being a Notary & a Paralegal is an amazing combo when your having a legaldocument that need to notarized… there’s no one I would rather have notarizing that doc than my Attorney or a Paralegal! Think about it… when you hire Kia, you truly get the best of both worlds! Having someone that actually knows the law inside & out… notarizing my docs…what else is there to think about? Do you want someone notarizing that important legal doc that passed a test to get a license or a true legal professional who not only passed that test, but also dedicated years of her life learning the law inside & out? It’s almost silly when you think about it like that… no brainer correct! Apples & Oranges!
Thank you Kia for doing all you did & handling it like the absolute professional that you are! Truly appreciated more than I can express!

Kia immediately responded and made a same day appointment. She was very personable and efficient. She quickly executed the documents and yet didn’t make us feel rushed.

Kia was absolutely amazing. She was so patient with us as we figured things out as we’re from out of town and tried to plan around the weather. After rescheduling 3 different times and places we finally decided a place and she made sure she was available to accommodate us. Even last minute we moved the time up 2 hours. Kia was so sweet and amazing.

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My typical process for working with a new customer is to send them a message and then follow up with a call. I listen to the details of their needs and come up with a solution and appointment date and time to get it done. I do not collect any fees until the work is completed.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been a paralegal for 15 years, I am a notary, and I am registered with the State of South Carolina as an Immigration Documents Specialist.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I began my work as a paralegal after a personal situation in my life and my lack of knowledge on how the law and the system works caused me to do a lot of research. After that I was intrigued, I applied to a community college and landed my first job as a paralegal in 2008. It has been onward and upward from there.
