If there were 10 stars, they’d get all of them! Kelso Lindsay and his paralegal, Camille Ward, are truly exceptional. They are the Coeur d’Alene high-conflict divorce team you hope to find but rarely do. Kelso is an absolute force - calm, decisive, and strategically relentless - an F-18 wrapped in velvet. He knows exactly when to be precise and powerful, and when to lead with calm, clarity, and restraint. Watching him work was nothing short of impressive. Camille Ward deserves her own standing ovation. She was my constant - fiercely protective, tireless, and completely devoted to my case. She tracked every detail, anticipated issues before they arose, and stood guard over my interests with unwavering loyalty and strength. I always felt covered, supported, and advocated for. What sets this team apart is not just their legal excellence (which is top-tier), but their humanity. Divorce is brutal - especially high-conflict divorce - and both Kelso and Camille were consistently encouraging, grounding, and comforting throughout the process. They never minimized the emotional weight of what I was walking through, and they never made me feel like “just another case.” If you are facing a high-conflict divorce and need a team that is both formidable and compassionate - brilliant tacticians with genuine heart - this is who you want beside you. I am profoundly grateful for them both.

One of the best in the area by far. Look for the best, not the cheapest. When it comes to taking care of the people you love, Kelso and Camille are incredible. Family law is not one size fits all, laws are not perfect, people are not perfect, but this team works hard to help you learn processes and if you work hard to apply their instruction, you will see positive results. Highly recommend.

Response from owner

Thank you, Josh! You case is one of those we will remember for a long time!! :)

Kelso and Camille are amazing! I wasn't just a number or paycheck. I had great communication with both, email, text messages, even getting return phone calls after hours. I would recommend Kelso and his team to anyone for assistance in family law.

Response from owner

Thanks, Alicia! Communication is power! :)

If you’re looking for an attorney who treats you like a person—not just a case number or a paycheck—look no further than Kelso. He genuinely cares about his clients, and that compassion shows in every interaction. Camille is incredibly thorough and organized, always staying on top of the details, and together they make an exceptional team. My case went all the way to trial, and Kelso proved to be a fantastic trial attorney—confident, prepared, and persuasive in the courtroom. The entire process was long and emotionally draining, but Kelso’s empathy and steady guidance made a huge difference. I can’t recommend this team highly enough. They truly go above and beyond.

Response from owner

Thank you so much, Cortnee! We are so pleased with your results and hope we never hear from you again! :)

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional support and expertise provided by my attorney, Kelso, and his incredible paralegal Camille at Advocacy Law Center. Navigating through what feels like the most challenging and difficult divorce imaginable, their guidance and professionalism have been and continue to be nothing short of a lifeline. From the very beginning, Kelso has demonstrated an unmatched ability to understand the complexities of my case, always providing clear, strategic advice that have made the legal process far less daunting. His compassion and dedication to ensuring the best possible outcome for my daughters has been evident at every step. What truly sets Kelso and Camille apart is their unwavering commitment to each and every client, especially to the well-being of their clients' children. Their advocacy is heartfelt and genuine, always prioritizing the best interests of the children involved, which has continued to provide me immense peace of mind during such a turbulent time. Camille, with her meticulous attention to detail and prompt communication, makes sure I am always informed and supported, turning what is typically overwhelming into a manageable and even an empowering experience. Their seamless teamwork and genuine care not only help me through this trying time but also continually restore my faith in not only people but also the legal process. I wholeheartedly recommend Kelso and Camille to anyone seeking knowledgeable, compassionate, and truly outstanding advocates for their case. Thank you guys for making this incredibly difficult journey far easier to bear on the daily! My daughters and I thank you both from the bottom of our hearts! <3

Response from owner

Thank you so much, Natalie!! You will always be in our hearts, as well! We wish you the best of luck in the future! :)

I am so thankful for the day I walked into Kelso's office and met Camille. These two are amazing. They didn't fit a single stigma I had in my head of what a lawyer and their team would be like. Kelso is straight forward and honest, even if it's bad news. Our case was long and convoluted (the fault of the parties not Kelso) but Kelso and Camille were with us every step of the way. At the end of it all we got the arrangement that Kelso predicted we would and we are thankful for it. I would recommend this team to anyone who needs true skill in the court room. Kelso is not only a great lawyer and person to have in your corner but him and Camille are genuinely good people too. Thanks advocacy law center!

Response from owner

Thank you so much, Jennifer! We are so happy that it is finally OVER!! :)

Kelso and Camille are absolutely the best! My divorce was very high conflict. Kelso and Camille were there for me along every step of the way and in the end I was awarded sole custody. I could not be happier with choosing them to represent me and my children.

Response from owner

Oh gosh, thank you, Brooke! I was having a really frustrating, stressful day, but you just put a smile on my face!! :D Yours was definitely a difficult case, but we could not be happier with the result!

I would give no stars if I could unwilling to help me and assumed I wouldn't be able to afford his retainer without even actually speaking with me or asking any questions about my case. Very rude and unprofessional!

Response from owner

Your review hurts... How many attorneys did you call? How many bothered to return your call? I bet I'm the only one... My policy is to return EVERY call no matter how busy I am, because I respect you. In fact, I tried calling you back twice, but your voicemail glitched and I couldn't leave a message. And then I did my very best to answer your calls back to me, during my very busy day... How many lawyers answered their own phone when you called?? Honestly, Katillia, your review hurts deeply. I really try my best...

Kelso Lindsay and Camille are absolutely phenomenal and the best team you could ask for! Highly recommend the team! They were both incredibly helpful and went above and beyond! I couldn’t have asked for a better team to help me through a protection order! They both made me feel so protected and cared for during the entire process and took my battle on as their own. Truly wonderful people to get the pleasure of meeting and having on my team! Thank you for everything!

Response from owner

We could only succeed because you were strong enough and brave enough to stand up and fight, Desiree! We are so happy we could be there to help you! :)

Absolutely do not recommend. If you care about your case or what little money you have left, find someone else.

Response from owner

Not a client.

I cannot say enough accolades about J. Kelso and Camille. This team went to battle for me. After YEARS of being told over and over nobody could help me, because of the opposing counsel, and judge on my case. These two worked countless hours and efforts to get me the custody and time with my kids that I should had been awarded all along. If you are a dad and need a team to go to bat for you. THIS is your firm.

Response from owner

We are SO happy that you are happy, Jarrett! We are here for you, now and always! :)

Kelso and his team are phenomenal. I will forever recommend people looking for legal advice to reach out to Advocacy Law Center in CDA, Idaho. Nobody every sets goals to hire a lawyer, let alone the best in town– but that's where life led my children and I. I spoke with Kelso, met with him and his team, then hired them right away because they GENUINELY CARE ABOUT THEIR CLIENTS– not just the case, but the people. They went to work for me right away, listened to my wants, adjusted as more issues arose, were extremely communicative throughout the entire process– I never had to wait around to hear from them. They were PROACTIVE about EVERYTHING. And guess what, I WALKED AWAY SOOOO HAPPY. Kelso and his team treated (and still treat) me with the utmost compassion, friendliness, care, and guidance. They truly care before, during, and beyond working with them. They are a people-first law center through and through. Forever grateful for having Advocacy Law Center fighting for my kids and I to have the best possible outcome, and that's was/is the result.

Working with Kelso and Camille was the best decision I could have ever made for my daughters and I. The whole process was done with impeccable professionalism. These two made my life so stress-free during such an uncomfortable ordeal. I will recommend Kelso and Camille to anyone who needs legal counsel. There aren't enough thanks in the world that I could give them!
