Great divorce lawyer

I hired Abe twice as my divorce lawyer from our fist conversation to our last in both cases I felt less like a client and more like a family member. Abe was always quick to respond to any of my questions or concerns in a very friendly manor. I came out feeling more than satisfied in both cases thanks... to Abe's professionalism and knowledge as a divorce attorney.

The Best Around

This lawyer went above and beyond! We can’t thank him enough for going above and beyond for us. As a lawyer he was up front and honest about the situation, provided much advice on many different situations, and also was always willing to help! Court cases are not always in the lawyers control, it tru...ly depends on the judge in which you are going in front of, it is nice to have that explained from the beginning! Finding an attorney to understand that things are difficult during the process is truly helpful! He actually cares about his clients and takes the time to listen when you really are clueless in what to do. We truly can’t thabk him enough for everything! I would highly recommend him to anyone!

Amazing Attorney

Abe represented me throughout a very difficult litigation. His knowledge of the law proved absolutely invaluable in my case. He was always prepared, and went through great lengths to understand the complexity of my situation. Because of this great work ethic he was abled to quickly react when unexpec...ted things came our way. At all times during the litigation I felt that Abe was invested in helping me and my family. That is not to say that this was an easy road. I had to make very tough decisions. Abe went out of his way to prepare me for each step. He was honest and encouraged me to consider all important aspects. I would recommend Abe to anyone looking for a true ally in court.

Insight and integrity

During 2009-2011 Abe represented me in a long and protracted Legal Speration/Divorce and a year later in a Modification. Family law is emotional charged, especially when children are involved. Adding to that the financial cost, it is probably one of the most difficult times in a persons life. Throu...ghout the almost 3 year attorney/client relationship I learned to trust Abe more and more, especially during delays and disappointments. Sometimes I didn't want to hear certain facts but I Always trusted his judgement and integrity. Our one goal was always laser focused; best interest of the children. Abe consistently returned calls and emails promptly as did his office staff. Our relationship grew from attorney/client to one of mutual respect and friendship. I highly recommend Abe Kuhl.

Great Service!!

From the time I consulted and retained him, Abe was very empathetic to my situation in every sense possible. He actively listened to what I wanted to accomplish. He was very up front and prepared for many different possible scenarios. It can be tough cuz you never know how the other party is going to... come at you but he was prepared for everything and told me our plan of attack in every instance (making sure I was ok with his strategies). He FULLY prepared me for mediation and because of that I went in knowing my stuff citing other cases as reference points and came out getting pretty much everything I wanted. Abe could've very easily not prepared me and charged me so much more to go to trial but he isn't about the money. Yes, his rates are higher than some but you get what you pay for. Experience, knowledge and EMPATHY!! This is one of those bitter-sweet moments when I hope I don't have to use his services again but know the first place I will go if I do!! Thanks Abe!
