A Steady Hand Through a Difficult Divorce

When my marriage ended after 22 years, I was overwhelmed and fearful about the financial and custody implications. From our first meeting at Henson Efron, Kathryn Graves provided the calm, experienced guidance I desperately needed. With over four decades of practice, she expertly demystified the legal process, explaining my options with clarity and without judgment. Her background in family law mediation was invaluable; she skillfully navigated negotiations, avoiding a protracted court battle while fiercely protecting my interests and my relationship with my children. It’s clear why she’s been consistently recognized by Super Lawyers. Kathryn didn’t just handle my case—she helped me rebuild a foundation for my new life in Minneapolis. The outcome was fair, stable, and achieved with a level of professionalism and genuine care I will always be grateful for.
