S. Murry Kinard

Very busy man, but very dedicated. He is obviously a very busy man for a good reason. This man dug me out of a hole I did not deserve to be in. If you are okay without constant communication unless something in your case changes or he needs more information this is your guy. That was definitely somet...hing I had to get used to. He loves children and only wants the best for them. He is extremely thorough and pays very close attention to detail. His goal wasn't to drain me of every penny I had instead it was to make sure that we got the best outcome possible with the case he had been presented. He is very professional, and straight to the point. He is very pro-active. I trusted him completely during my case to guide me in the right direction with little communication after initial consult and a couple appointments to catch up. I trust his opinion and yet he still wanted to let me know my choices. I would ask his opinion and choose from my choices then. He was always in my corner from beginning to end.

A few months ago, I got into a family dispute and Mr. Kinard really got me through it all. He was knowledgable and firm with his tactics on his paths to resolution. He was very concerned with my issues and was available when I needed consultation... at times even treated me like family. He was always... fair and level headed, and would go out of his way to help clients. If you're looking for a lawyer in the Lexington/Columbia Area, he is THE BEST around.

My wife and I are both retired and "seniors" by anyone's definition. We've had the privilege of having protective custody of two grandchildren ages 11 and 8 for over 18 months. Anyone involved in the DSS process knows how difficult arriving at an acceptable result can be. We found Mr. Kinard to be... knowledgeable, professional, and open in discussing options with us. I am confident that we arrived at the best possible solution for our Grandchildren due in large part to Mr. Kinard's help. I would recommend him to anyone involved with custody issues.

I have hired Murry on a couple of occasions but most recently last year for a very important family matter. All the advice he gave on how to handle the situation was spot on and when it came time to go to court he knew exactly what to use and what points to focus on to win the case. He saved my life....
