Charles John Kettlewell

Mr. Kettlewell handled a C&F matter for me and I couldn't have asked for better representation. Extremely diligent, knowledgeable and a well prepared course of conduct my matter from start to finish. My only regret is that I didn't hire him sooner! I started with a different counsel that wasted a ...lot of my time and money. I highly recommend Mr. Kettlewell for an ethics - professional responsibility matter as he defused an extremely stressful situation with great time and attention to my file.

Mr. Kettlewell did a superb job in representing me in a spurious ethics complaint. He provided a good overview of what to expect at the beginning of the matter, laid out a strategy for proceeding given the particular forum, kept me apprised at all stages during the proceeding. I would highly recomm...end Mr. Kettlewell for professional responsibility matters.

Charles effectively and efficiently responded to a letter of inquiry that I received from the Ohio Supreme Court Disciplinary Counsel regarding an IOLTA banking error. His response led to a prompt dismissal of the case. Charles saved me the time (and hassle) of responding to the OSC-DC, in turn, allo...wing me to focus on my own clients' matters. I would add that during that process Charles also provided me with sound advice for maintaining my integrity and professionalism during extremely contentious and ongoing litigation--just one of the reasons I did not have the time to handle the IOLTA matter myself. I cannot think of a reason why a practicing lawyer would not hire an ethics lawyer to handle any issue no matter how seemingly minor. Hairdressers do not cut their own hair. Surgeons do not operate on themselves. If you are a practicing lawyer and do not already 'have a guy', then call Charles!

I would like to take this opportunity to submit a review. Mr. Kettlewell usually returns telephone calls within 24 hours. He puts together background information on his client's behalf so that a polished and thorough submission can be made to the other entity. Based upon his professional experienc...e, Mr. Kettlewell is understanding and objective. When he represented me, Mr. Kettlewell was able to provide restrained and dispassionate guidance that appropriately tempered my subjective overview of the legal matter.
