For Business

If I could give Lan B Kennedy- Davis 10 stars I so would! I sold my salon and the buyers were in breach of contract. Not only was Lan so strong and highly professional, she showed me such empathy concerning my case. The buyers kept trying to coerce me into signing a new contract when we already had ...one in place. Lan was able to get me the whole amount in just a few weeks after reaching out to her for assistance. I felt so bullied and unclear on how to handle this unresolved contract. Lan was beyond amazing! Not only did she put me at such ease, she kept in close contact with me once she took on my case . The buyers had given me such a hard time, you can imagine my shock when Lan called to tell me she got me the rest of my sale! I could tell Lan really cared and was so happy with the outcome for me. I can attest, you will be in GREAT hands with Lan B Kennedy - Davis.

Got Me Through The Roughest 4+ Years of My Life

I was blindsided with several criminal and civil suits that had to do with millions of dollars. My life was taken from me. However, thanks to Lan's amazing work over 4 years, my future wasn't. I can now start to rebuild. Her extensive knowledge on a wide range of issues my cases covered, was invalua...ble. She was available, knew when to be tough And when to be caring, and was by my side every step of the way. I'd give 100 stars if I could.

A sincere Professional who has been highly trusted and reliable over the past 16 years.

My wife and I have relied on Lan's quick assessments, responses, proposal of alternatives and information accuracy that has allowed us to make difficult decisions with our family over the past 16 years. Lan's compassion makes it bearable to move forward with options and their impact. Lan thinks out...side of the box. She truly acknowledges it's all about people and her skills and relationships with her colleagues very much helps Lan navigate a large complex Court System. Lan not only knows the Law, she knows how to apply it quickly to her Clients's Cases. We've given Lan many challenges and she has been consistent and persistent to help achieve the best possible outcome. We consider Lan part of our Family. We couldn't have survived the highly emotional situations without her. Lan is also forward looking and always has new options to present. Lan gets the most difficult and emotional Cases done. My wife and I have been truly Blessed and extremely pleased throughout the 16 years with Lan B. Kennedy-Davis' performance and confident but aggressive demeanor.

Unparalleled professionalism, brilliant with a passionate personal touch-Civil Suit

When I first met Lan for my consultation I immediately felt extremely comfortable. She took time to get to know me personally and I had all documentation I felt needed to prove my case. As we went through my consultation I knew immediately that my case was in the right hands. As Lan reviewed all d...ocumentation along with her impeccable legal experience, I could immediately see that she sincerely cared. She said, "here is what I propose" without hesitation. I agreed. This was a civil suit with rightful return of personal belongings to include jewelry from a terminated engagement. I am a guys guy and was not hurt, yet the mental aspect of right from wrong, the law and not the "defendant's law" was disturbing. As I walked out of the office, I felt as if I was going to shed a tear because I finally felt comfort. Lan was very detailed, attentive and knew exactly what to do immediately with each step. She felt we had a very strong case and ultimately won in a form of the law that I was unaware of (treble damages). This was the first time I ever had to hire an attorney and it was a pleasure. Lan's legal acumen is second to none. Her passion and care for her client's is a special art. I am extremely thankful and and honored to know Lan. I HIGHLY recommend her for all legal needs.

A compassionate force of nature who changed my life

I hired Lan after checking myself and my 3 children into a domestic violence shelter. I needed a divorce from a controlling, psychologically and physically abusive man I'd been married to for almost two decades, and was in the fight of my life over the custody of my children. Lan helped me navigat...e a chaotic time during which Florida had no jurisdiction in our divorce or custody case (we had just moved to Florida from Texas). Like many battered women, I had no concrete proof of abuse since I never called the police during one of my husband's rages. As we prepared for an injunction hearing, Lan joked that she was an expensive therapist, but her encouraging words, lack of condescension, and knowledge of the cycle of domestic violence helped me emerge quickly out of the mental fog I was in as a result of having been battered for 19 years. Lan is straightforward and ethical, and had the gravitas to take on my abusive spouse and his wealthy family. Her compassion and ability to relate to my traumatized 14 year old daughter has had ripple effects on my daughter's healing that continue to this day. Florida's laws protecting spouses and children from their abusers lag behind those in other states, but you couldn't find a better champion for their cause than Lan. She taught me how to fight back, and today, I live a happy life free of abuse. Lan is a force of nature, and no amount of money could compensate her for the profound positive impact she had on my life and the lives of my children.
