I was born in Tacoma, Washington but raised in El Paso, Texas. I settled down in San Antonio, Texas after meeting my beautiful wife here. I have 3 children and 2 rat terriers. I'm a diehard Texas Longhorn (my alma mater), I'm a huge animal lover, and I'm a big fan of listening to and playing music. I absolutely LOVE being a lawyer and representing individuals from all walks of life.

Orlando Kell was my attorney for a very difficult and dynamic case that included everything from divorce to criminal allegations. We did have a positive and successful outcome for me. Orlando was extremely friendly and attentive to all my needs and communications. I worked with other lawyers in the p...
"I was Orlando's opposing counsel on a very difficult family law matter that was recently concluded. He is a very aggressive and knowledgeable attorney who fights zealously for his clients, yet maintains a professional demeanor that makes him a credit to his profession. I am, therefore, proud to enthusiastically endorse Orlando Kell, a very reputable member of the San Antonio legal community."
"I highly recommend and endorse Orlando Kell, given he is a zealous and uncompromising advocate for his clients. Orlando also maintains professionalism and ethical standards, when interacting with opposing legal counsel, and managing his clientele. Finally, Orlando is a respected authority on all matters of family law and divorce, including child custody disputes, marital property division, military retirement, child support, spousal maintenance and post-trial relief (enforcement, clarification and modification of final orders)."
"It's hard to find good lawyers, and while my situation was not the best, I was fortunate to have Mr. Kell represent me in a matter that continued for almost a year, while I was in law school. Even though we never had to step into court, I saw how diligently Mr. Kell prepared for my case (he drafts great cross-examinations!). He keeps you posted and is a nonjudgmental listener. I really don't think I would be where I am as a newly licensed attorney without his help a few years back. I endorse Mr. Kell and recommend him to anyone in need of representation for either a family or criminal law-related matter. He understands how cases carry certain implications and puts in the work to achieve a favorable outcome. Thanks again!"
"Mr. Kell was opposing counsel on a highly contentious family law matter. During the proceedings, he conducted himself professionally and courteously, all the while zealously representing his client. I endorse him."
"I find myself more often than not just clicking "Agree" with this lawyer's answers. I am happy to endorse his remarks and efforts at representing the people of San Antonio."
"I endorse this lawyer. Orlando is a sharp witted, outside-the-box thinker who brings these attributes to the table for his clients' benefit."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Kell is a true professional who is highly knowledgeable in his field. He is an extremely competent, hardworking, and zealous advocate for his clients."
"I have known Orlando since law school. He is someone who I would trust with any legal matter and he is a passionate advocate for his clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. Orlando is well respected among his peers and zealously represents his clients."
"An extremely talented and well respected attorney in the legal community, I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer who knows the law and truly cares about protecting the rights of his clients and getting them the most favorable result possible."
"I endorse this lawyer. He is extremely knowledgeable and well respected in the legal community. You can trust him to protect your interests."
"Orlando has constantly been a wealth of information with regard to family and criminal law throughout the years. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable at the law, but he is very adept at thinking strategically for each and every one of his clients in any given situation. I cannot recommend him enough for your case."
"Orlando is a dedicated and passionate lawyer. He fights for his clients like few lawyers do and he always has their best interests at heart. I prouldy endorse this attorney."
