Want results with great customer client relations..

Matthew Kuehnl is simply hands down one of the most pleasant professional person I have worked with!! His attention to detail is above and beyond. Listening to his clients needs and concerns is what Matt does best to insure understanding and empathy. If it’s your first time like me going through ...a divorce, he takes time to explain the process and what to explain. So grateful I chose this Law Firm and Matthew to represent me! I got the results I wanted! I would strongly recommend Matthew if you are facing a divorce you will get the best results you can!!!

Relax, you found the right lawyer with Mr. Kuehnl

M. Kuehnl was my first and only choice to represent me in my divorce. I scheduled the initial consultation and I was confident I selected the best representation available after my meeting with him. He was a good listener, bluntly honest, and didn't give me any false expectations. He was my best a...dvocate, kept me informed, didn't let me make any stupid decisions in haste, and was tough when needed with the oposing lawyer.

Very knowledgeable

Matthew answered every question I had with facts and was very knowledgeable about the laws and how to best solve my problems and walked me through everything patiently.

Compassionate, honest, and truly listened to the details of my case.

I have a final parenting plan that was put in place years ago that was fairly boiler plate. Years later once my child became school aged, disagreements over districts quickly arose. During this time, I was a full time student and didn't have the financial resource to seek help. Unfortunately, the oth...er parent moved my child without permission to the school of their choice and unknowingly, I should have filed for a restraining order. The courts ended up deciding to keep my child in the district which was a difficult conclusion. I recently returned to work and commuting my child north quickly became a problem when my job was located much further south. The other parent ended up filing papers against me to modify the parenting plan to take majority custody which would have been absolutely devastating and far from the best interest of my child. I searched and searched for the right attorney to really understand the history of the case and how an unfortunate event resulted in a school placement which quite honestly made no sense when both households pass daily through my district. While the school placement was in order for elementary school prior to seeking counsel, Matthew was able to help give me a voice and stand up for a fair and justified modification to the parenting plan which has resulted in a drastically improved schedule and no time lost (which was completely unjustified). Matthew was able to take a terrible situation and completely turn it around to actually improve upon what was in place before. I had consulted other attorneys prior to hiring Matthew and always walked away worried that they didn't completely understand the current and past circumstances in addition to the motivations of the other party. I would highly recommend Matthew to anyone seeking counsel for a family law case. I am extremely grateful we connected and will seek his representation if I should need to in the future.

Very pleased

I used Mr. Kuehnl while attempting to obtain custody of my daughter as well as defend myself against an unmerited protection order. His staff was very professional and capable. He adequately helped the judge see the truth in the protection order hearing. We did not end up having to litigate on the cu...stody issue. He negotiated to help me obtain an end result that was best for my daughter.
