Highly Recommended!

When I knew it was time to seek legal counsel for my divorce, I didn’t even know where to start. I found Renee through a referral, age age immediately put my mind at ease. She was incredibly flexible and transparent throughout the process, and she did a good job of always answering my questions and c...oncerns promptly. Divorce is never easy, and rarely does either party really “win”, but Renee was able to fight for me and I truly feel I got a favorable and successful outcome. Renee made herself available at all times and treated me like her only client (although I knew she had many other engagements and clients during the process). Her communication was strong and effective, and also convenient (text/email/call). At the end of the day, I felt respected and cared about as her client, and I could tell her number one concern was making sure I was satisfied. If you are looking for an attorney for any sort of family legal issues, Renee is definitely a great choice!!

Divorce

I reached out to Renee Kennedy regarding my divorce. Having to get divorced can be very overwhelming and in the beginning I wasn’t sure where to start or in what direction to go in. After speaking with Renee, she was able to put my mind at ease and helped me through the divorce process. She was a...ble to take a difficult situation and make it look easy. Renee is very kind, firm, understanding and very very quick to respond. Renee and her team were able to finalize my divorce quicker than I would have imagined. I would recommend Renee to anybody needing the assistance of a divorce attorney. At the end of the day I got everything I was looking for out of the divorce and was very happy with the result. You can rest assured that Renee and her team will always have your best interest in mind! 5/5 would recommend

Outstanding

Being an Out-of-State client, I wasn't sure how to pursue my custody case. Before contacting Renee, I was unsuccessful in even getting a callback or response from a few other offices. Renee answered my call right away and went to work immediately. From day 1, Renee and her Team maintained excellent ...communication with me via phone calls, texts, and emails. I was always in the loop with all matters related to my case. Renee was able to secure what I was looking for in regards to custody and then some. Before my case was even complete, I was able to spend time with my child due to Renee's relentless approach. Renee kept me in check in times when I would get frustrated with the opposing counsel, and I appreciated that. Considering the time spent on my case, excellent communication, outcome, and how I always knew where we stood or what we were waiting on to move forward, I would definitely say it was well worth hiring Renee. Overall, my expectations were exceeded. I know get to see my child more frequently and for longer periods of time, my case only took about 2 and a half months from start to finish, and the amount of funds spent was definitely worth with. I highly recommend Renee and her Team and I would 100% reach out again if ever needed.

Best Attorney EVER!!!!!!

I contacted Renee for a divorce consultation over the phone toward the end of July. Renee listened to me talk attentively and informed me based on what I had told her that I had a very good chance of winning the things that I wanted in my divorce. After listening to my situation she informed me what ...information she needed from me which was a very comprehensive list of information and her fee to get started. Right out of the gate Renee made me feel confident about my divorce and the prospects of gaining custody of my child, keeping my home and my retirement. She assured me that if I followed the instructions and guidance she laid out that my chances of prevailing were more than good. Renee told me that she is very aggressive when it comes to fighting for the rights of her clients and without a doubt Renee proved this during the mediation phase of my divorce, Renee didn’t back down to my formers spouses attorney or the mediator for that matter as she reiterated time and time again that the evidence demonstrated that I would and should prevail. Renee never backed down and rejected anything that she deemed unfavorable towards me. In the end not only did Renee help me gain full custody of my child but I got to keep my home and my retirement!! I want to add the most profound thing about my case is that me and Renee never met in person once due to the current pandemic but I was never once made to feel that I was going through this situation alone although we never met she made me feel that I was more than just a customer but a friend she was there every step of the process guiding me whether via phone, text or email she was available even in the early hours of the morning! I highly recommend anyone who is going through a life changing event such as a divorce to retain the services of Ms. Kennedy she is aggressive, knowledgeable and understanding of the intricate workings of family law. I will forever be grateful of the service that Ms. Kennedy gave to me.

She is the best around

If you want the best, then Renee is your lawyer. I wish I had her in my corner from the beginning of my divorce. My first lawyer took a larger retainer from me and after that hardly ever returned my call or provided much legal guidance. I hear that happens to a lot of people, so when some additional ...post-divorce legal issues surfaced. I knew I needed the best representation this time around. I found Renee's good reviews on google and took a chance. All I have to say is wow, she smart, dedicated, truthful and was relentless on winning the best outcome for my case. She always stayed in contact with me day or night with case updates and provided the best strategies for ending the legal battle with the best outcome and lowest cost. Renee goes above and beyond for her clients. Don’t look any further if you need a family lawyer, she is the best around.
