Biography

In the often tense family law matters, including divorce cases, clients want a lawyer who will take time to listen to them before providing legal advice. With Kimberly April, you do not need to worry. She gives her clients the personal attention they need to work through their family law issues.
Clients love her for patiently answering all their questions and for handling issues “professionally and with promptness.” Her compassionate nature, coupled with her excellent communication skills, makes her trustworthy and unforgettable.

Besides being a compassionate counsel out of the courtroom, Kim is highly knowledgeable in court matters and excels as a tenacious family lawyer in the courtroom. Her intelligent and creative approach to challenging cases has earned her the respect of her clients, colleagues, and the Pierce County Judges and Commissioners. Being selected to SuperLawyers 2020 is a testament to her exemplary work and the respect of peers.
For over 20 years, Kim has handled different cases ranging from simple to complex divorce and child custody cases. She has also handled domestic violence protection orders and emergency relief in her primarily family law practice.

As her client, you are not just another file on her desk. Kim understands that every client and every case is unique and often endeavors to help individual clients achieve their unique goals and objectives. If you have concerns about your case, she is always ready to listen and provide updates on its progress.

Before joining Envision Family Law Group, Kim worked as a solo practitioner in Pierce County. However, she began her career working under the mentorship of renowned Pierce County family attorney Diana Lynn Kiesel. She worked with her for over a decade until Judge Kiesel, now a Superior Court Judge, was appointed a Court Commissioner.

When she is not dedicating time to her practice, she enjoys planning excursions with her son and traveling the United States.
