About Kenneth
I know what it’s like to go through a divorce. I’ve been there. It’s not easy.
When you get a divorce, you are choosing to make a better life–for yourself and for the people who matter most to you. But you can’t do it alone. You need help from an experienced Charleston divorce lawyer that you can trust.
Working together, we will make a better future for you. I will listen to you, and I will help you rebuild your life.
I will leverage my extensive experience as a divorce attorney for your benefit. I have worked in large firms, but I chose to practice in a smaller firm so that I can give personal attention and exceptional legal services to each person that needs my help.
I graduated from the University of Colorado with honors in political science. Then, I received a master’s degree in public administration from the University of Virginia, where I had a graduate fellowship and served as a faculty research assistant. Thereafter, I graduated from the Georgetown Law School, where the faculty asked me to teach a class in legal research and writing.
For more than 30 years, I have helped people just like you solve their divorce, child custody, property division, and alimony problems.
I want to help you. To get your questions answered and get started creating a brighter future for yourself and your family, please call me or request an appointment today.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
My contact with Ken has been impressive. He is extremely well credentialed, not an easy thing to come by in the legal world. He is an easy going yet high energy lawyer who I believe does an outstanding job obtaining the best results for his clients through extensive preparation. He is detail oriented and works with his clients to achieve their objectives. Any client would be smart to retain someone of his caliber.

Ken is a very thoughtful, thorough, and diligent attorney. I do not hesitate to endorse him due to his experience in both family law and litigation, combined with his intelligence and and warm personality. Ken is very skilled and works hard to represent his client's best interests.
Jessica Peck, Family Attorney on Jul 14, 2014
Relationship: Co-worker
As you may have guessed by the fact that I have the same last name as this lawyer, we are related. But while he is my dad, I offer this endorsement as his former client, and subsequently, his co-counsel on a number of high conflict family law cases. In a world where attorneys engage in fist-pumping spats before judges, Ken wins time and again through a simple formula. With his clients actively engaged in pre-trial strategy, he chooses substantive preparation and meaningful negotiation over filing costly motions or lobbing ineffective bombs at the other party. If you're looking for a sassy, big firm lawyer, he's not your guy. But if still you want someone with big firm credentials and an impressive track record without all the drama, I can offer up no better candidate than this shockingly tenacious warrior to lead the legal team for what could be the most important case of your life.
