Excellent attorney and staff.

I had the great pleasure of having Ms. Kennedy represent me in my divorce. A friend recommended her. I had been married for 45 years and my wife was disabled, the marriage ended due to my ex-wife's infidelity. I have various 401k savings from different employers, annuities, bank accounts and military... retirement. All said and done, Ms. Kennedy negotiated the deal of a lifetime for me. I did NOT have to pay any alimony and I only had to give up twenty five percent of my military retirement and nothing else. I kept 100 percent of everything else. The process of going through a divorce is something that I would not wish on anyone. But things happen and if you find yourself going through a divorce, I cannot say enough great things about Ms. Kennedy and her whole staff. Every email, phone call, or message was usually answered within thirty minutes. There is not another attorney that I would want to represent me if I had to go through another divorce.

Result orientated and effective

Renee Kennedy and her team were outstanding in getting our grandson placed in our home! We needed a Family Law attorney who could get my wife and I entered as intervenors during extremely contested child placement proceedings and hearings for our grandson. Renee immediately took our case and got rig...ht into conducting interviews of our witnesses, family members and compiling the testimonies, evidence and preparing us for court in less than 72-hours. Renee and her team defended our rights to care for our grandson so he wouldn’t end up remaining in foster care. The expertise, details and preparation provided by Renee and her team made our case a success. She got our grandson back into our loving home where he belonged despite great opposition by not only the child’s mother, but the amicus. I truly believe without Renee and her team’s dedication and efforts, we may not have been successful! If you are looking for an attorney who works hard to get the results you want, I highly recommend the law offices of Renee Kennedy.

Great Attorney!

Renee Kennedy did an awesome job negotiating a settlement in which I made bank. I got to keep a majority of the community estate. My ex got only a fraction of what he could have thanks to Renee’s tough negotiation skills and litigation strategy. She and her team are very thorough and knowledgeable, a...nd did everything they could to make the process easy for me.

Amazing Attorney Who Will Fight For You

Renee was kind, understanding, and fast moving when I needed legal representation for an intimidating family law matter. I would not trust anyone else with my family law matters in all of Texas. She was always on point and always explained everything to me in a comprehensible and considerate way. ...She and her staff are fantastic! Renee really, really fought for me. I am so grateful to her and her staff for all they did for me.

Best lawyer in town!!!

If you are looking for a fantastic attorney who will not quit and who will work tirelessly to get you that win, look no further!! Complete satisfaction with Renee Kennedy's legal services. When I met with Ms. Kennedy for consultation, I explained that I filed a child support action on myself with the... Attorney General’s office which complicated things. Not only did we have to contend with my ex and her attorney, but we had to deal with the AG office as well. I hired Ms. Kennedy without hesitation and am pleased to say I have not one regret in this decision. She explained any and everything to make absolutely sure I understood what was going on throughout the case. It put my mind at ease to know I had an attorney like her backing me during such a trying time. She looked out for not only my best interest, but also the interests of my children. Ms. Kennedy and her team worked diligently to ensure my divorce went as smoothly and cordially as possible given the circumstances. Renee was vigilant about staying on top of everyone. I was so sick of dealing with my ex I was ready to give up the farm, but Renee would not let me and she not only wiped away my back child support, but got me a huge credit on my future child support obligations too. She undoubtedly exceeded any and all of my expectations coming into this case.
