Stole my money

Hired this lawyer for a child support case. He charged me $5000 cash. Took the money and couldn’t go to court because there was a conflict of interests with the mother of the child that I was going to court for. Initially I told him that my baby’s mom hired his office before and he proceeded to tell ...me that there will be no problem. Never gave me my money back or went to court for me. Just took my money and I would love my $5000 returned. My name is Gordon Brown

Very Knowledgeable and Helpful

Attorney Morse was fantastic! He assisted me in my child custody/ child support case. He is very knowledgeable and tells you straight answers. Whenever I had any questions, he was very responsive and helped me to understand the law. Attorney Morse fought for me and my son every step of the way and w...e did not have to go to trial!!

Amazing, aggressive and efficient

Kenneth did an amazing job with my divorce case. He was appropriately aggressive and on top of everything. The turn around time for motions & responses was above and beyond. I would definitely recommend him and his office to anyone dealing with a high conflict case

Perfect

Going through a divorce with children involved is so hard. Mr. Morse and his paralegal Kristy, couldn’t have been more supportive and professional. They both walked me through every step of the way while reassuring me it would all be okay. Mr. Morse is a very no nonsense lawyer which is EXACTLY wh...o you’d want representing you. He’s very professional, very respectful and extremely efficient in responding to any questions you may have at any time. Mr. Morse has been representing clients for a long time. It’s very apparent how dedicated he is to his clients and how important it is to deliver the very best outcome for your family. I couldn’t have asked for better representation than what I received. I’m thankful and very grateful to Mr. Morse and his paralegal Kristy. They made a very sad situation much easier to navigate!

Bulldog with a heart

I never expected a divorce, no one does, so I obviously never set up my marriage with that as my end goal. The end goal was happily ever after, until it wasn't. Mr. Morse and his staff led a very uninformed, very scared, heartbroken, mess of a woman through one of the toughest things I have ever ex...perienced. He was kind, caring and took the time to explain the entire process while also being a bulldog that represented me and my interests from day one. I would highly recommend attorney Ken Morse, although I do hope I never need his services again!

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.
