Posted by Ron | April 07, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Probate

Experienced, Professional and Reliable

I am an attorney that has been on the opposite side of a litigation matter with Attorney Kelleher. I was very impressed with his knowledge, and the respectful and professional way he worked with me to resolve the matter. I have found myself as executor in a probate estate. It is not my area of expert...ise, but Attorney Kelleher has great knowledge and experience with probate matters. I did not hesitate to retain him as my attorney and it is the best decision I have made for the family and heirs of the deceased. I highly recommend Attorney Ed Kelleher.

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.
