Don't use in abuse cases

Kiff is not the lawyer to use if you are leaving an abusive spouse. He did very little for me and seemed to treat my ex like he was an equal rational partner, so in the end I lost a lot. He failed to warn me about things that could happen in the system to allow my ex to continue to take advantage o...f me and did not seem to remember details of my case from one session to the next. He has very little strategy and dragged my case out forever. I paid him a lot of money but ended up doing a lot of the work myself.

Has to be the best divorce attorney in the area

When I filed for divorce from my abusive x husband I was so scared. After meeting with Kiff and talking I felt so much better and felt confident Kiff would take care of everything for me. Anytime I had a question, he answered it where I could understand and he alays returned my call the day of our a...fter I left a message if he was not in the office. My case was a very tough one because my x husband could not follow court orders. Kiff, along with the judge was able to get my x under control after 2 years. During this time, Kiff got me custody of my daughter and stayed on top of the game in every proceeding. I highly recommend Kiff Newkirk as an attorney for divorce and custody issues.

Very reliable lawyer at such a short notice

I found Mr. Newkirk through my mothers divorce papers. See I was coerced into marriage by some crazy person and I needed to find a lawyer quickly because I wanted to get out of the marriage before it was to late and my mom decided to look at her divorce papers and we found him on their. When I was fi...nally able to put an Order Of Protection on him and once it was filed I was then able to start the process of my annulment and Mr. Newkirk was determined to get me an annulment and not a divorce because I didn't want it to show on my record as ever being married to him. I would highly recommend him because he did an amazing job and I truly thank him for that!
