He’s excellent.

Kenneth has been my attorney for two probation violations and got my probation reinstated both times.

Had this guy as a public defender. Wouldnt file any motions at all for me. Told me all the wrong things to do. If i didnt have this guy as an attorney i wouldnt have a felony today. Got told to waive my rights to a preliminary hearing by this worthless guy. Come to find out later if i didnt do that i... would have been out of jail on the spot due to no witnesses showing up. Wouldnt explain anything at all. You might as well call this guy the DAs lap dog. I wish i knew what i was doing but in Sedgwick county jail u dont exactly get to look up laws yourself since most of the pages are ripped out of the law books they have there. Not that it really matters since you only get an hour the time u are in jail. All i can say is, is make sure u have money saved up so u can hire a real lawyer if u ever need one. If you get this guy, you are screwed if you dont fire him.

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.
