Posted by Derek | May 22, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Chad is the best.

When I was looking for a attorney I went and met with attorney Chad Kaehne. I was looking for a attorney to help me with child custody. I told him what I was looking for and he told me what he would do if I hired him. I liked what he told me at our first meeting and I hired him that day. He never lef...t me not knowing what was happening with my case. He always gave 100% and never gave up on me. In the court room he was always knowing what to do and knew what to say to make a good outcome. What I asked for he got it for me even when he had to do some research to help get it. He never told me he could do something and not get it. He was always straight forward with what he could do for me. I would highly recommend choosing him for any kind of help needed. I will always know it will be Chad i would go to if need an attorney again.

Outstanding service

Attorney Kaehne was retained for a criminal matter involving my son. He provided personal service, expert advice, and kept us informed of everything from day one. He proved to be very effective in communicating with both our family, as well as the District Attorney, and relaying the pertinent info...rmation in a timely manner. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal counsel.

The true Fathers rights lawyer

When I came across KLPP Law I was not in the best position I had a lawyer that was cheap by my first court hearing I went from having my kids to nothing but a phone call once a night recorded. My ex found a really high power woman's rights lawyer HBO that put up so many mirrors away from the facts I ...lost everything in the stroke of a Pen I was in a bad place even had a restraining order out against me from HBO based on wrong information I didn't know what to do. I made an appointment with Chadwick and he read it over and said this is all Garbage who did you have for a lawyer to let no fathers rights then he said don't tell me I don't want to know. You are in a really big hole to climb out of. He sounded like he knew the laws and filed a motion to start the ball rolling he hammered on HBO lawyer hard very hard. Then HBO left the case. My ex went to another respectable lawyer soon after she left the case. Chadwick will be by your side and fight to win. You get what you pay for with Chadwick. He knows law and uses every bit to fight for a very skewed legal system that favors Moms stories over hard core fathers facts. If your a Father that loves his kids as much as I love my kids he will fight for your rights. I would recommend him to any God loving moral person in legal trouble from a shady lawyers doing. In the end as of today 2-4-2015 I now have 50/50 see my kids bring them to Sunday school and church. God worked Through Chadwick and his staff to bring my kids back to me. And no restraining order which he fought as well to be dismissed.

Excellent attorney, extremely knowledgable.

I used attorney Kaehne for my divorce. He was knowledgable of the laws and was very personable. He was compassionate and I could tell that he genuinely cared about not only the details of my case and the outcome, but also about me as a person. He made me feel comfortable as I went thru an emotionally... trying phase of my life. I would highly recommend Chadwick Kaehne to anyone looking for a trustworthy lawyer.
