Review of Kenneth McNeil

Ken McNeil represented me in my divorce. I did interview a total of three attorney's in my area and chose Ken for his knowledge and also for his calm and attentive personality. His intelligent and timely manner in everything concerning my divorce was without fault. A divorce is a very difficult thing... for a person to go through, but having an attorney who is honest, and always there for you, was worth every cent. It is expensive to hire a good attorney, but when you feel the attorney has your best interests in mind, and does an excellent job, just like any quality item...it is definately worth it.

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.
