As a seasoned prosecutor and litigator, Attorney Kendall has refined his litigation skills over the years and is well-suited to provide quality legal counsel to family law clients involved in contested cases.
Attorney Kendall's litigation experience also serves him well in preventing family law cases from ending up in court.

That is why he strives to settle cases prior to court, so long as the settlement is the best interest of the client.
