Great lawyer

Paul Kendall was referred to me when my husband needed a lawyer in Brazoria County. It was 2 days before the hearing when I contacted him. Next day he went to go consult with my husband in jail and the day after he was there for the hearing and worked with the prosecutors to get the best deal. My hus...band was out of jail that day instead of sitting there for weeks and is thankful to have had him on our side . He was quick to help and worked with us financially as well . Thank you!!!

HE is the ONE!!!

Mr.Kendall is absolutely awesome. This isn't the first time that I went to him for help. He will truly dig deep to get all the facts! Having him there at court representing you definitely will bring you peace within your own mind. He will never leave you with unanswered questions and will never tell ...you some BS for his benefit. He is honest about all possible outcomes.. And he did provide me the best outcome that he could by keeping me out of jail. Thank you Mr Kendall

Case dismissed!

I found Paul after talking to several lawyers. He was the first one that I talked to that I felt comfortable with. Paul was very knowledgeable about the laws and possible outcomes concerning court and my job with my specific situation, being a public school teacher and getting a PI. Even though Iâ...€™m sure my case was relatively small time compared to his other cases, I felt he really cared about my case. I wanted to go for it with a trial by judge and get it over with, but he convinced me otherwise, taking up much more of his time. My case ended up getting dismissed because the cop did not show up, but he convinced the prosecutor to offer deferred adjudication before the trial. I would recommend Paul to anyone and will hopefully never need his assistance again! Thank you Paul!

Best of the best...

Paul Kendall represented me in court to the best of his ability. He always let me know what was going on with the case(s), and was at all times honest with me. He seem to have an accurate logical answer for any questions i had. He fought until we got the hearing we felt was best. Thanks again Mr. Ken...dall. Wish you the best in the future.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse Paul Kendall. We are both independent lawyers with separate offices but through our local criminal bar association, HCCLA, I have had the opportunity to mentor Paul for the past year or so as he works on his cases. So far, I sat with him on 2 trials - aggravated sexual assault of a child and a felony DWI, habitual offender - both very tough cases. Paul did an excellent job on both. In addition, I have consulted with him on other cases. I find that he is hard working, dedicated, intelligent, caring, and has the insight needed to understand clients, juries, judges, and prosecutors. I believe that Paul will have a long and very successful career helping folks charged with criminal offenses. I look forward to continued collaboration on our cases."

  • 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.
