Divorce, Custody, Child Support

I hired Kenneth Kaplan to help with me with a very complicated divorce case. A number of attorneys preceded him and were unable to make any forward progress: in fact, a couple of them only served to make things worse. He reviewed over 1000 pages of case files and quickly had a thorough understanding ...of the issues. The case involved custody of a minor child and a number of financial matters. I found Mr. Kaplan to be a consummate professional who not only took pride in his work but also cared about the outcome of the proceedings. He was easy to get hold of and always returned my phone calls promptly. His advice and court action were always based in fact and tempered by financial practicalities. His advice created appropriate expectations and oftentimes served to dampen down my desire to move forward in a manner based more on my emotions than on my intellect. In the end, I avoided useless court time and unnecessary fees. The results he obtained for me on every level have been wonderful, a real blessing. I can recommend him without qualification to anyone who needs assistance with divorce. You will not find anyone better.

Amazing Attorney

I am so grateful for finding Kenneth Kaplan :) The most kind hearted attorney! As an attorney he has your best interest in mind always! But most importantly he always wants what's best for the kids through the divorce process. I highly recommend Kenneth Kaplan for anyone in search of a family law at...torney! The best decision I could've made was hiring Kenneth M. Kaplan to represent me through this process. His team is extremely helpful and patient, I am so grateful to you all. As his client you will always have a peace of mind knowing Kenneth and his team are handling everything. I am forever thankful for everything him and his legal team have done for my case. 10/10 for Kenneth M Kaplan :)

Highly recommend Mr Kenneth Kaplan

Ken Kaplan has represented me for three years. He fought for me and got me Custody of my son. He is always well prepared and he and I have an open line of communication. He answers all of my questions. I am still litigating with my Ex and we will probably be in Court for several more year...s. I would not want to go into battle with any other Attorney than Mr. Kaplan. I highly recommend him to anyone who has children!!!

An angel from above and a life saver

Beaten down, in a messy divorce about to lose potentially full custody of my son due to an equally highly talented lawyer of my ex, financially on the ropes and with no where else to go - I was recommended Kenneth from a friend who she had just been through a messy divorce. Hands shaking, heart racin...g, I finally called his office and he answered immediately. That day changed my life. He said to me to come into his office immediately even though it was the end of the day. He took a 10 minute review of my case, picked out all the errors within moments of the case paperwork on both sides - told me exactly what to do and what not to do, what to say and not what to say and he would handle the rest. He delivered on his promise at a very fair fee and fast forward 3 months the divorce is final and he did exactly what he promised me. He is unorthodox, however that is what you need when you up against the wall of another high profile lawyer. Kenneth thank you for saving my life, for saving me, and getting me what I wanted. Forever indebted in this great man - a true father figure to me. His support group of Andrea and Evelyn that I worked with are equal stars and I am very thankful to them too!

My princesses will forever be grateful and happy spending time with their Dad and that thankfully thats me Michael Davis!
