Very Satisfied

Joe is a very conscientious attorney and quite experienced. My wife and I were referred to him by friends who have used him for many years. We have transferred all of our legal and tax returns to his firm. We have found the level of service and knowledge very helpful in managing our affairs. We were... also impressed with the depth of staff and other professionals that are available to work on our affairs. All in all, we are very satisfied with the service and our annual fixed fee arrangement. We are also happy he is still young and will be around when our family needs him.

An expert in his fields and a nice person!!

Mr. Kempe has represented me with regard to my estate planning, trust administration, and tax matters for many years. He is very understanding and knowledgeable, keeps up-to-date with changing laws, and informs his clients of any additional measures which can be taken to protect their estates. In a...ddition to wealth management, Mr. Kempe is also interested in his clients' health and welfare, and has staff to assist in those areas. I have a great deal of confidence in his expertise.

A Retired Lawyer Says:

Joe is a very well regarded and experienced estate and tax planning lawyer. I have been a partner in large New York and Boston law firms, and none are better than him. He cares and is nonpretentious.

Lawyer of Lawyers

I am a lawyer and have had my estate plan worked on by a few northern attorneys over the years. I found Joe quite knowledgable, creative, and responsive. I consider him a lawyer of lawyers.

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.
