Excellent attorney in family law - Andrew Kynaston

Andrew Kynaston was my attorney in my divorce case. I recommend Mr. Kynaston to whoever needs a good family attorney for several reasons. First, I am impressed by his knowledge in family law and his EXCELLENT writing skills. The document he prepared was exactly what I wanted to say but in a much bet...ter way (I have a PhD degree in engineering and I am good in presenting my ideas). My position in this case was continuously improved until it was resolved. Thanks for his help. Second, there were several instances that drove me crazy, but he kept his cool head and did whatever was good for me and offered me the best advice. Third, he is very efficient, the time he charged was reasonable. My money was well spent. Forth, he has an excellent team. The communication between his office and me was always very smooth.

Blessed to have him as an attorney

Andrew Kynaston handled my child custody and child support dispute case. Andrew did an amazing job. His professionalism, compassionate deamor and expertise with family law helped immensly. His professional guidance of the case put me at ease throughout the entire process. Not only am I happy with the... work he has done so far, the staff was so welcoming and helpful. I am completely satisfied with the his work and I would highly recommend you obtain him and his team for any family law issues you have. You will not go wrong in obtaining Mr. Andrew Kynaston. Again, thank you Andrew for everything you have done for me and my family. I am eternally greatful!!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
