Biography
My name is Kathryn Wiley but most people call me “Kat”. I have been an attorney for over 15 years. My job is to visit with people and help them get a better understanding of their options. Over the years I have helped hundreds of clients obtain a new start.
Over the years I have gotten to visit with numerous potential clients from every walk of life. My angel as I will forever call her, Jane*. Jane came into my small office needing financial help but when she left both of us received a great gift. Jane had recently left her husband. Her husband was not a very nice man and he keep a lot of Jane’s belonging in the separation. Belongings that had sentimental value to Jane. At the time, I had recently left my first husband under similar circumstances. Jane and I cried together but more importantly we both got a little solace in knowing we were not the only two people in the world who had gone through this situation.
Since this day I have helped many clients like Jane who were just trying to pick up the pieces of their life after suffering through a traumatic illness, divorce, or death. I enjoy helping people. I guess you would say I was reared to help people. My Mam Maw would always say your raise cattle, you rear children. Now that I have two small children I finally understand what she means by this phrase.
I have been around the legal profession my whole life. My father, older sister, and older brother are all attorneys. Growing up I got to witness how hard my father worked to help so many people in our small community make their lives better. So when I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life, all I knew was I wanted to help people. Since I saw that attorneys were able to do that I decided to go to law school.
I have a wonderful husband and two precious little girls. I enjoy playing make believe, card games, board games, watching movies, and just swinging in the breeze with my girls.
