Ecstatic

My experience with attorney Nakeina Kane was very positive and I would recommend her to any of my family or friends. Mrs. Kane is full of confidence and very to the point when she needs to be. I truly felt like I was in good hands. Thank God for her.

Best Attorney in Indiana!

Nakeina was an excellent attorney and very friendly. She represented me very well in my legal affairs. One thing I greatly appreciated about Nakeina was that she got down to business right away. She worked on my case tirelessly and was helpful every step of the way. She was very knowledgeable and inf...ormative throughout the entire process. From the first meeting with Nakeina I had full confidence that things would work in the end & they did. Nakeina went above and beyond for me, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone going through legal troubles.

The best decision I made was choosing Mrs. Cane to represent me!

From our very first meeting skeins proved to be professional, friendly and willing to go above and beyond the call of duty for me. I never felt like a number. She was always available when I needed her and responded promptly to my needs. She made me feel like a priority and she was extremely knowled...geable. I would highly recommend Mrs. Came without hesitation! She is truly one of a kind’

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.
