This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Divorce Attorney

Ken is an astute, well thought and senior advisor that helped me transition from the perils of a mediation into the execution of a divorce. As divorces are painful and lengthy, Ken's solid counsel and unequivocal ethic drives home results that otherwise would have taken longer under any other purview.... I highly recommend Ken.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known Ken for many years and have the highest respect for him. He brings a wealth of experience, keen knowledge of the law, and sense of fairness to his cases while, at the same time, zealously representing his clients. He promotes collegiality among members of the bar and has earned the respect of judges before whom he has appeared. He distinguished himself as President of the Massachusetts Family & Probate American Inn of Court and in his other bar activities. I am pleased to endorse him."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
