Posted by LW | October 27, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Intelligent Trustworthy Hardworking Attorney

As a father in the middle of a divorce, Mr Kennedy's judicial knowledge and ability to navigate the divorce court system made this very difficult period bearable. His understand of father (and mother) rights is second to none. There isn't an attorney in Omaha that I would trust more with my personal ...legal matters than Mr Kennnedy. On top of this knowledge and experience, his rates and time are very fair and reasonable. Do yourself a favor and utilize this attorney for your legal needs, you will have peace of mind knowing you've hired the best man for the job.

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.
