Divorce

Barbara Keon represented me in my divorce. Throughout this long process, she remained extremely professional and caring. Barbara knew every small detail of my case, knew the laws that applied to my case and was always very well prepared. She is talented, experienced, and practices with high integrity.... I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone in need of a talented, smart, assertive attorney. I have nothing but positive things to say about working with Barbara Keon and her staff.

Divorce

Barbara Keon was my lawyer in divorce proceedings that resulted in a court hearing, judge's ruling and in a repeat case 2 years later. She was always professional and by letting me be very involved in the research, collection of information and decisions on approach to the case saved me money and bu...ilt up my confidence and self esteem which was at a low ebb. I always felt that she was looking out for my best interest and could not have been happier with the outcome. Years later we are still in contact and I cannot thank her and her office enough for their work.

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.
