I am passionate about helping you through all of your life transitions – from cradle to grave. I’ve been an attorney since 1994, when I was graduated from Washington University School of Law in St. Louis, Missouri. I first began the practice of law in Scott County, Missouri as the only public defender assigned to the entire county. After two years in the rural area, my family and I moved to the Kansas City metro area where I joined the Department of Social Services representing the Children’s Division in child abuse and neglect cases. After 8 years with the Department of Social Services, I joined the Earnshaw Hobbs Law Firm PC to continuing and broaden my advocacy skills on behalf of families and children. After almost 6 years with Earnshaw Hobbs, I opened my own firm, Kiske Law Office, LLC, in Zona Rosa. I am licensed in both Missouri and Kansas (and hold an inactive license in Illinois). Because I also like to challenge myself, I am usually engaged in one or two large “extra-curricular” activities. Currently, I am privileged to serve on the Board of Directors for MARCH mediation. I am also a member of the Association of Family and Conciliatory Courts, and I have received the AVVO client’s choice award for Family Law in 2014. In my “free time” I volunteer for a hospice organization where I play flute duets for patients in hospice.
I am also grateful for my personal life experiences that have enabled me to be empathetic with my clients. I have personally been through a divorce with children, experienced the death of a parent, and many of the life transitions that we all experience.
At the Kiske Law Office, LLC, I am responsible for child custody cases, child abuse cases, divorces, paternities, guardianships, and traffic matters, and simple estate planning. I developed the Mobile Lawyer Services to more effectively meet the needs of our aging and disabled clients. I truly enjoy helping clients resolve their parenting and other legal issues. I am grateful for the opportunity to counsel clients on issues related to their family, children and loved ones.

Cold and Rude
Like others, I went to her based upon the reviews here. I am not exaggerating when I say that I have never been so disrespected by a law professional in such a way. She raised her voice and it really seemed as if I was she was trying to pick an argument. It was odd behavior. Her "intern" was involved...

No help at all
I hired Anne because during consultation she seemed genuine and had great reviews. But that was not the case. I would be charged $50 for asking questions like what is this court appointment for. Being my lawyer I should be to ask a simple question, but nope everything was about money. She wanted me t...

PLEASE do not waste your money on her!

Now i know that they have to be posted by her, PLEASE do not waste your money I hired her based on all the reviews and she was the complete opposite, I can go on and on about how un...

if you want help, look elsewhere
I decided to use Anne for my son's custody case, solely on her reviews on these websites. I strongly recommend NOT to use her if you want an attorney to fight for you. She was bitter towards me and I felt I was judged. The whole case consisted of her working with the respondents attorney and them not...

Horrible!
She is horrible! She doesn't care about your kids, only money! I gave her plenty of money and got horrible results! I then hired another lawyer who helped me to win my case! I should've never gone to her but I trusted the reviews on here. I would not be surprised if these reviews were written BY her....
"Anne is a compassionate and strong advocate. She cares deeply for her clients and makes herself personally available to them."
