"Across three states, Jenny was hands-down the best divorce lawyer I worked with! Authentic, savvy, insightful, tough, empathetic and effective. Can ’t say enough good things about her."
Kiara McAllister, our receptionist, took the long road to Triangle Smart Divorce. Literally. Not necessarily in terms of miles – although she did spend a summer in Barcelona as a volunteer with disadvantaged students – but certainly in time spent on the highway.
Kiara is from Long Island, NY. She lived there while commuting to Mercy College – a great school in a great location on the banks of the Hudson River. The kind of bucolic setting used – often – in TV shows and movies.
Her last two years at Mercy, Kiara worked as an administrative assistant/front desk receptionist in a counseling center in a Long Island town seconds from the infamous Roosevelt Mall – a mall that has its own entry in Wikipedia. It is spectacularly beautiful and spectacularly choked with traffic. That meant, of course, that by the time they got to her office, patients were already predisposed to take it out on someone
None of this phased Kiara. She graduated Magna Cum Laude with a degree in International Relations & Diplomacy.
When Kiara’s boyfriend and her circle of friends headed for graduate programs at Duke, Kiara took all of thirty seconds to decide to head South.
Then she found Triangle Smart Divorce. She nailed our very intentional multi-phase application process and once we met her – well, you’ll see when you come into the office.
Kiara’s ability to manage the most stressful of situations with poise is manifested every day as she faces an office filled with rabid college football fans trying to convert her to their way of seeing the Top 25. Kiara, though, is from the college football desert of the Northeast, has no dawg (or cat of any kind) in the fight and is resolved to keep it that way.
When she is not triaging everything that lands on the front desk, Kiara is enjoying the NC weather, loves hiking, plays the guitar, and is learning how “not to kill plants.”
