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.

Stole our money

We hired this attorney and he never called back to follow up and stopped answering out calls. He blames it on a new employee. He ran with our money and he now says it’s not refundable

Total dissatisfaction

personally hired this attorney for a family matter and he actually made me believe he was going to properly represent me, after my retainer fee was taken i never heard back from him. To get in contact with anyone in the office you have to call many times and if you do research on Mr.Kaplans reviews y...ou can see he has done this to many clients, taken their money and gone silent. Also disreguard him answering to negative reviews saying they are fake, he says all negative review are fake. I have proof of hiring Mr.Kaplan and also proof of the lack of communication. I also reported him to the Florida bar for taking my money and not doing a thing for me. Search further before giving your hard earned money to this guy.

Great Lawyer..!!! Very knowledgeable

I just wanted to say Mr. Kaplan and his office staff are amazing. I was recommended to him my a friend of mine’s. They worked with me during this very stressful time of my life. And there Attorney fees are fordable and reasonable. I highly recommend using Mr. Kaplan and his law team if your in the ne...ed of a great lawyer.

Crook

Worst experience. Greedy for money. Had an agreement for 2000 bucks for my case and ended up paying more than 6500 bucks and case was lost. My ex took injunction against me based on false accusations and I kept on asking him to defend me in court as I had enough evidences to prove myself innocent. In...stated of listening to me, he ended up me accepting indefinite injunction in court. The other party was a free legal aid attorney who did better then him.

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.
