Kyle E. Witherspoon is an experienced, aggressive, and thoughtful litigator who believes that family law clients deserve a better class of lawyer, and is determined to give it to them.  Currently accepting client enquiries. CLIENT TESTIMONIALS. Cate M., 5 Star Google Review:. "Kyle Witherspoon is one of the most credible and knowledgeable divorce attorneys I’ve worked with. In my professional life, I encounter legal negotiations daily and have worked with a range of law firms. Kyle has proven himself a rise above some of the perceived “greats” out there in his profession, making a name for himself by being honest, straightforward, logical and beyond hardworking. He pairs that with a true empathy for his clients and a desire to help them see what is in their best interest even when they can’t see it themselves. To say my expectations have been exceeded  would be selling my experience short. My expectations have been carefully cultivated through the guidance that Kyle has given me and he has the backing of a firm that regards him highly, believing in his assessment of how cases should be managed. How refreshing to not be nickel and dimed but trusted for what can be managed and working together as a unified team for what is best for my case. If you are ever in need of an attorney, call Kyle Witherspoon at PearsonButler! I highly and emphatically recommend him!". Donna W., 5 Star Google Review:. "Kyle Witherspoon is a phenomenal lawyer.  He absolutely knows what he’s doing. He always had my best interest in mind and is excellent against opposing counsel. I would be very confident going to court against anyone with him on my side. He was very prompt to get back to me anytime I needed him.  He is an exceptional lawyer. I would very strongly recommend him.". Kloey J., 5 Star Google Review:. "I never thought I would need an attorney, but life circumstances can easily change. Kyle Witherspoon is fantastic to work with. He listened to my concerns and took them seriously. I realize he has many clients, but he makes you feel as if you are the main priority. I appreciate that he worked late into the night getting things ready before court. He's thorough and very detail oriented.". Kassy S., 5 Star Google Review:. "Working with Kyle Witherspoon has been amazing! I am extremely impressed with Kyle and his paralegal. They’ve taken the time to help me understand the process, they both care what's happening and have done everything they could to help me through it! I would recommend Kyle to anyone who comes to the unfortunate circumstances covered by family law. Truly, thank you both very much!". Joe L., 5 Star Google Review:. "Kyle Witherspoon is awesome! I needed an attorney to represent me and my small business over an issue where a previous client was trying to take advantage of me for over $60k.  Kyle started in on my case right away, and called the other attorney during our initial consultation and defended me.  Kyle said to me that his goal was to get this case dropped as quick as possible, and he did just that. This could have easily become something that would have amounted to large legal fees, going back and forth, and having the judge end up dropping the case anyway. Kyle was awesome to work with and was aggressive on defending me. He knew exactly what was needed to move this along quickly.. I hope I don't come into a situation like this again, but if I do I will definitely be in contact with this firm and Kyle Witherspoon.  He turned an extremely stressful time into a much more relaxed and easier to deal with situation. If I could Photoshop a 6th star on this review I would do it.". Ashlee C., 5 Star Google Review:. "Kyle Witherspoon has been great for me and my family. He also takes the time to make sure we are getting what we need!". Elisha K., 5 Star Google Review:. "Kyle Witherspoon has been my lawyer for about 7 months now, and he has been wonderful! He is very educated, and knows his stuff. His assistant Hailey has been great to work with as well! I highly recommend him!!!". Sean T., 5 Star Google Review:. "The team of Kyle Witherspoon and paralegal Hailey Massie is second to none! I went through a difficult divorce and they were there for me every step of the way. If you need strong advocates in your corner, do not hesitate to get this team on your side!". A passionate, steadfast, and intelligent advocate, Kyle Witherspoon has worked for some of the top law firms in Texas, Utah, and nationally.  In that time, he's represented everyone from farmers to hedge funds, single mothers to international corporations, small and large businesses, and individuals in litigation worth from a few thousand dollars all the way up to hundreds of millions.. Ultimately, however, Kyle chose to leave that behind and return to the practice that inspired him even before law school:  Family Law—helping and fighting for real people with real problems in some of the most important and difficult situations they’ll ever face. He considers it one of the best decisions of his life, and quickly found that the skills he honed as a litigator and trial attorney can provide an extraordinary advantage to his clients.

After practicing family law for the last half decade, I have learned a lot of things. The biggest takeaway is that each client's situation is unique, and a strategy that makes sense for one client, will not necessarily work well for another. Each family is unique, and getting the best possible outcomes for each case means listening to and understanding where my clients are coming from, and where they want to go. I am not afraid to practice outside the box, and use creative and bold legal arguments to get the results my clients are entitled to.

With degrees in both law and behavioral forensic psychology, and nearly 30 years of practice, I have developed a unique approach to resolving family conflict and divorce matters that is interdisciplinary, holistic to the parenting dynamic, and highly effective.. The Covid-19 pandemic caused unprecedented stress, disruption and uncertainty for families. The fallout has continued even years later. There have been sweeping changes in family law during the past few years. Clients require assertive advocacy that is also common sense and cost effective. Options to avoid litigation should be explored from the beginning of every case. Expectations of clients must be in line with courtroom reality.  Virtual courts require law firms that are adept with fast moving technology.. In my practice as a negotiator and neutral mediator, the vast majority of cases are resolved out of court. The legal process works best when both lawyers communicate and encourage their clients to remain amicable and avoid unrealistic positions regarding custody and finances.. My experience encompassing nearly 30 years as a trial attorney, mediator and victims’ advocate includes familiarity with cases involving high net worth and complex assets, domestic violence, mental health issues, personality disorders, substance addiction, religious divorce  and special needs children.. A daughter of Middle Eastern immigrants, I have traveled the world and developed a passion for international family law.

The firm also runs support groups for the community, and pro bono representation for domestic violence victims. Our firm has always prioritized the mental health needs of its clients, believing that reducing the emotional level in a dispute leads to better outcomes and more effective coparenting. My  multidisciplinary background, including a graduate degree in Behavioral Forensic Psychology and Family Systems Therapy, is also unique among my peers.. I have a long history of public service, including pro bono work for The Safe Center of Long Island. I am Chair of the Matrimonial Committee for the Women’s Bar for the State of New York (WBASNY). I have raised awareness and funds for a range of social and legal causes on Long Island.. I routinely handle complicated family law matters that require high- level financial experience with assets in real estate, investment accounts, business valuations, tax and retirement benefits. Recognized as an AV® Preeminent™ rated litigator, and having tried numerous and complex numerous and complex, high income and asset matrimonial and family law cases, as well as bench trials, and having prepared and argued appeals before the First and Second Departments of the Appellate Division, I have demonstrated my competence and credibility with judges and adversaries. I nevertheless believe that a negotiated settlement is often the best strategy, especially if there are minor children and co-parenting is desired.. My research articles, including, "Legal Implications of Religious Divorce", “Fertility Law” and “Intellectual Property in Divorce Matters” have been published and presented at national and state level conventions including AFCC 2020 and the WBASNY 2019 annual conventions.
