Video transcript:
"My name's Kristine Jones, and I'm with The KJ Law Firm, LLC in Montgomery, Alabama. One client experience that really impacted me was someone who had an uncontested divorce matter but had tried several times to make it happen. Along with that, there were issues of the children, who they were with, what happened, things of that nature. Through this process and the Volunteer Lawyer's Program, I was able to find out that information for my client, give her peace of mind about her children, and allow her also to move forward in her life by being able to get the divorce completed for her. She was so thankful and appreciative, and we were both able to work on it and eventually get a great outcome for her that she was really happy with and positively impacted her. The many people that I've been able to help, they need someone to listen to them to provide that help. We all want to be heard about things that are going on in our lives and so to not only be able to listen to them, but to help them find a solution to whatever's going on, that makes my day knowing that I have helped someone make their life better."
