Kate Rech
About
I am a native Charlottean and graduated from Myers Park High School. I did my undergraduate studies at UNC Charlotte, graduating with a B.S. in Business Administration, major in Marketing, as well as a B.A. in Spanish. While in undergrad, I studied abroad in Sevilla, Spain through a program with UNC Chapel Hill. I graduated from law school as class valedictorian. While in law school, I studied abroad in Edinburgh, Scotland through a program with William Mitchell College of Law and I also interned with the Mecklenburg County District Attorney’s Office.
When I am not practicing law, I enjoy spending time with my family and traveling. I also sit the board of a wonderful non-profit organization, Fashion & Compassion.
Practice Philosophy
Since opening Rech Law in 2010, I have helped hundreds of clients through the tough times that almost always come along with family law issues, including divorce. I believe in fighting hard for my clients and being there for them when they need me the most.
I chose the field of domestic law because I felt that I could make a direct and positive impact on people’s lives. I believe that helping provide a service to the community is not only a benefit to the public, but it is satisfying and rewarding for the practice and for me. I believe in giving my clients realistic expectations, instead of telling them what they want to hear. To me, such a philosophy makes for more collaboration between the lawyer and the client, which ultimately makes a very difficult situation just a little better.
