Kendal K O'Keefe

Before filing for divorce, I interviewed at least a dozen attorneys. I felt frustrated that no attorney seemed to fit what I was looking for: I wanted smart, compassionate, patient, and a fierce, non-judgemental advocate. As soon as I met with Kendal, I knew she was exactly who I needed to represent ...me in what was sure to be an incredibly long and devastating divorce process. Kendal was a true advocate for me in every way. She was firm yet kind, professional yet personal, incredibly thorough yet expeditious, creative, and smart as a whip. Though I never wish for divorce on anyone, should that become necessary, I truly could not more highly recommend Kendal O'Keefe as an incredible legal representative.

Kendal was the associate attorney for my divorce. While I worked with her less than the partner at her firm, my experience was positive, and I would highly recommend her to others. I primarily worked with Kendal on affidavit preparation. Kendal gave me great feedback, and I could tell that she wa...s carefully reading everything I had prepared. One of the affidavits was over 50 pages long, due the contentious nature of my divorce, so this was no small task. I appreciated that she had taken the time to learn the details of my case, and her feedback made my affidavits clearer and more effective. Kendal was quick to respond to emails, and when the partner attorney was unavailable, I had complete confidence in working with her. She was very knowledgeable and highly professional, and I valued her advice. In addition to working with me on affidavits, I know that Kendal did significant work behind-the-scenes. I have no doubt that Kendal’s work was key to the positive outcome in my divorce. In short, I have only good things to say about Kendal, and I would highly recommend her.

I first retained Kendal a few years ago to help cleanup some issues in my original divorce decree. She’s representing me again with a new issue that arose from joint custody. My situation with my ex is fraught with strife, with my young children caught in the middle. Only legal constraints have ga...ined any tangible results. I’ve been represented by three different lawyers in the 5 years since my divorce started. I've also worked with a slew of professionals - mediators, evaluators, a parenting consultant, parenting coaches, and more therapists than I care to count - with little success. Kendal is far and away the most reliable and trustworthy professional of the group. I’m incredibly impressed with, and grateful for, Kendal's representation. She communicates clearly, efficiently, and empathetically, while providing quality advice. She takes great care and effort to make sure I understand my options and I feel confident about my decisions. Kendal is always on time, and catches and rectifies the important details my prior lawyers missed. She gives honest answers, and focuses on solutions that gain results. My only regret is that I didn't find Kendal sooner. I am certain I would have had better outcomes from the start if I had.

Kendal was awesome to work with through my divorce. She had my and my sons best interest at heart. She efficiently processed any requests or follow up needed l, and also responded to me always in a timely manor. She worked well with locating and getting the signed divorce papers back from my now ex h...usband. Thanks to her legal assistance and guidance and I was able to have my divorce finalized by the end of the year and start 2017 with a clean slate.

Kendal has done a great job on multiple post divorce cases for me. She does a great job summarizing the facts for the court without wasting unnecessary hours being billed to the client. Her passion for her work shines through in every meeting and she gives the client a feeling of full commitment and ...dedication. I highly recommend her.
