Ken Eulo grew up in Los Angeles, California. As a student, he was consistently in the top ten percent of his advanced program of classes. He was also a top athlete and served as a mentor and assistant coach on baseball teams for Mentally and Physically Challenged Children. He moved to Central Florida in 1996 and attended the University of Central Florida on a Bright Future’s Scholarship in 2000, where he studied Criminal Justice and Pre-Law. During this time, he participated in “ride-alongs” with police, where he got a close look at criminal procedures and gained an understanding of criminal law. After graduating with a Bachelor’s Degree of Science from UCF in 2005 with cum laude honors, Ken Eulo helped plan and run the first branch of the International Coffee Chain Testa Rosa, where he was offered advanced management training in Europe. However, he decided to return to his first love: The Law.

Ken Eulo attended Florida State University College of Law, graduating in 2010. During his law school career, he performed two internships, one with the Attorney General’s Office, Criminal Appeals Bureau, and the other with the Public Defender’s Office for the Ninth Judicial Circuit in Orlando, Florida. During his internship with the Attorney General’s Office, Ken Eulo drafted several lengthy appeals that were heard before the U.S. District Court of Appeals. During his internship with the Public Defender’s Office in Orlando Florida, he assisted in defending several misdemeanor and felony criminal cases. In 2010, Ken graduated from Florida State University College of Law in the top 10% of his graduating class, receiving cum laude graduation honors, as well as the prestigious Order of the Coif Award.

Upon graduating from FSU Law in 2010, Ken Eulo was offered several jobs, including a position of writing appeals for the Florida State Attorney General’s Office, but he accepted the opportunity to work as a Criminal Defense Attorney for the Public Defender’s Office in Orlando, Florida. He was hired and placed on salary before he took the bar. Months later, Ken Eulo passed The Florida Bar Exam with a 169 MBE Score, placing him in the upper percentile of all Florida Bar Exam test takers.

During his tenure with the Public Defender’s Office, Ken Eulo handled every aspect of Criminal Law Practice, including: Initial Appearances, Violations of Probation, Juvenile Delinquency Court, County Court (Misdemeanor Crimes), and Circuit Court (Felony Crimes). Ken Eulo has litigated and resolved more than 1,000 criminal cases.

He has taken over 30 criminal cases to trial, including the following:

  • Capital Sexual Battery
  • Burglary

Grateful Family
Without going into embarrassing detail, let's just say that we had to put our son's future in Ken Eulo's hands. Before the court date, he kept us informed of everything he was doing, he answered all our questions and returned all of our calls. I came to his office once at lunch time, and while the other lawyers were socializing in a break room, Ken was at his desk, eating a sandwich and studying his case. I'm thoroughly convinced that it was Mr. Eulo's single-minded dedication that saved my son.

True Professional Attorney
I needed helping negotiating a lease for one of my new candy stores. I tried to negotiate the lease by myself,at first. I have never trusted lawyers or thought I needed to pay for something I thought I could do myself. I quickly noticed I needed help as the landlord was trying to screw me. I hired Ken to represent me, and it was the best business decision I have ever made. He grinded for me every little detail of the lease to make sure I was protected. He treated me like I was his number 1 client, always picking up my calls no matter what time of day. Ken has changed my view on lawyers I would highly recommend Ken for any and all legal issues.

Our family is forever grateful to Ken Eulo!!!!
Our son who has autism got himself in big trouble online. He was arrested and faced a horrible sentence, even thou he was no threat to anyone. Ken Eulo did an incredible job defending him in court and got him a greatly reduced sentence. He gave our family hope and a future. This is the attorney you want in your corner!

Most Humble Attorney
From the start for one of my husbands cases, Ken was always consistent, honest and helpful. Sadly, we needed to use his services yet again but since he was already familiar with my husbands case, everything went smoothly. Ken always answered my questions, my emails and phone calls. Needless to say he was very consistent and realistic. I'd definitely recommend him and his office.

We won! Ken Eulo exceeded my expectations.
I found Ken through a friend who recommended him. I hired him to sue a service company that had caused damage to home. Ken was professional and he communicated with me throughout the process. He's articulate, persistent, knowledgable and in the end he managed to procure a settlement that exceeded my expectations. I'm very pleased with his performance and would recommend Ken to anyone looking for a professional, competent, caring attorney.

One of the best attorneys out there!
I first met Ken through Avvo when I posed a legal question about charges that were placed against me. This was the first and only time that I have ever been on the wrong side of the law. His response to my legal question was unequivocally the best one that I received and I decided to contact him. I knew that Ken was right for me when I got a call back within minutes (this is a big deal for me because I called his office on a SUNDAY). After consulting with him for an hour about my case, I readily retained him. That decision was most likely the one that saved me from guaranteed prison and certain damnation for the rest of my life (I was facing two sex crimes). Ken readily represented me in a court system that could be considered foreign to him (my charges were brought in a different part of the state), and he always made himself available to answer any questions or concerns that I had. Through his extensive knowledge and unwavering efforts, he was able to secure an outcome that allowed me to go about my life with minimal damage to my reputation (my outcome involved a greatly reduced charge, absolutely no prison time, no sex offender status, and no convictions on my record). To put that in perspective, when I first met with the public defender that was assigned to me, they made me seem like a number and that I was a giant burden to their caseload. They advised me that I shouldn't fight the charges and that my life was essentially over either way I proceeded (he kept using verbiage that suggested more than a decade in prison with a plea deal, as well as having the dreaded sex offender status, which the PD stated was non-negotiable in my situation). As with any service, your mileage may vary, but I personally would undoubtedly and without hesitation recommend Ken Eulo to any of my friends and family for legal advice or representation. He is very economical and realistic about his rates and is a valuable asset to any case, civil or criminal.

felony drug charge
I've had a few minor run-ins with the law, traffic violations and such therefore I've hired my for share of attorneys. However, the stakes were pretty high when I got a felony drug charge! I was terrified what to do and who to trust with having my faith in their hands. I will forever be grateful having Mr.Eulo by my side, he was and is the absolute best! He's very professional, yet down to earth he made me feel very comfortable, he sat down with me and really listened to my concerns, fears and my expectations of the outcome. He then explained what all scenarios could possibly happen. If you want the best outcome.... look no further! Mr Eulo will take it upon himself to do anything and everything in your behalf :-)

Public Defender Did A Great Job
About a year ago, I had a DUI charge and was assigned a public defender who turned out to be Ken Eulo. I had some previous problems in my driving record and thought about hiring my own lawyer. But I became impressed with how Mr. Eulo was handling my case and how dedicated he was to getting me the best legal advice and also how compassionate he was to my situation. So I decided I didn't need another lawyer and stuck with him. I was very happy with the results. He got my case reduced to reckless driving, with no probation and a small fine, which I really appreciated.

Ken Eulo is (Highly Recommend)
I first spoke with Ken Eulo the end of 2014 and with no understanding of the law he has gracefully guided me threw. He is knowledgeable and very attentive to my needs and questions about the case at hand. I've spoke with him more than several times and each time it was satisfying results in my case. The gratitude I have to come across such a professional and straightforward lawyer is an amazing feeling. It's not easy to find a legal aid who will keep a personal eye and detail on one case all while doing the same for others. I would recommend anyone who is misunderstanding with the law or unsure of a lawyer to give Ken Eulo a call. Ken has taken my expectations above and beyond and changed my personal view in the stereotypes of lawyers. My feature legal issues with be handled by Ken Eulo no matter what it may be. Thanks Ken

Excellent Lawyer: Helped me with Fraudulent Builder
I recently had a few construction projects done. all got completed well, but later I found that my builder had taken money from me but had not paid a few sub-contractors. Under the Florida rule, even if you have paid , and your builder does not pay the sub-contractors,ultimately you are responsible. I was referred to Mr.Ken Eulo, by one of my friends who was helped by Mr Eulo in his case. Ken not only helped me from preventing Liens on my property but also helped the sub-contractors get paid. I was surprised when I got an apology letter from my builder, who asked for my forgiveness to prevent any further criminal proceedings against him. I would whole-heartedly recommend Mr.Ken Eulo to any person who is looking for a honest ,hard-working , up-front and dedicated attorney who gets results.

Intelligent, efficient and trustworthy lawyer!!!
Mr.Eulo is an excellent lawyer and he explained complicated legal questions in a way that's easy to understand. My case was complicated but he truly gave his personal attention to my case. I would definitely hire him again as my attorney when I have any immigration or legal issue.

Excellent lawyer
I contacted Ken Eulo for several legal issues over the last few years. He helped with a criminal defense inquiry I had as well as several civil issues that could have cost me considerable money. He was helpful, knowledgeable, and efficient. I would highly recommend this attorney going forward.

Response from Ken Eulo May 31, 2022
It's unfortunate that you feel the need to leave this review. It sounds like you felt we fought hard for you, and are simply upset because you could not honor your contractual obligations. We conducted significant work in the case, including depositions, bond motions, and fought extremely hard for you. This review comes a year after we withdrew from case. Before we withdrew we told you that if the balance could be rectified, we had no problem continuing the representation (that offer still holds). If you want us to continue with the case for a fair and adequate compensation that was agreed upon by all parties we will continue the case on your behalf. But simply to leave a negative review because you couldn't pay the balance on your cases is unfair.
