About Kenneth
Biography
I am a Florida attorney with more than 15 years of courtroom experience representing clients in criminal defense and family law matters. My practice is based in Naples, and I represent clients in Collier, Lee, Hendry, and Miami-Dade Counties.
My criminal defense practice includes DUI, felony and misdemeanor charges, drug offenses, domestic violence cases, violations of probation, traffic offenses, suspended licenses, and other criminal matters. I also represent clients in divorce, parenting, child custody, and related family law cases.
I believe clients should understand what is happening in their case, what their options are, and what comes next. I prepare cases with litigation in mind from the beginning because meaningful negotiation is strongest when the other side knows you are prepared to go to court.
Before becoming an attorney, I served in the United States Army Reserve as a Combat Engineer and received an honorable discharge. I am a first-generation attorney and have spent my career representing individuals and families facing problems that can significantly affect their freedom, finances, children, and future.
My goal is straightforward: provide experienced, practical representation without unnecessary complication or expense.

Divorce Phone Consultation -
For only a phone consultation, Mr. Turner freely provided relevant insights and options to my specifics that would matter to my best interest. Though my fingers are crossed that I don't need to be in his local area, I am convinced he would do well advocating for the best possible outcome for me if I'...

Replied last October 16, 2019The threats are not necessary. Divorce is one of the most frustrating and stressful things a person can go through. As you stated in your review, you hired me to assist you in your divorce and then you canceled your divorce after the work had begun. I understand your frustration and the stress that you have been put through. However, once you direct me to cancel I cannot continue prosecuting your divorce. I believed that you had resolved your differences. If those circumstances have since changed, please let me know what I can do for you now and I will assist you in meeting your goals. I continue to invite you to tell me what I can do for you.
