This crook took my money and did absolutely nothing, beware of this lawfirm.

I was referred to Mr. O'Kennedy through the OCBA. I hired him to negotiate a stipulation with my ex-husband's attorney. I repeatedly (in writing) asked him to submit my objections to the proposed stipulation drafted by the other party. He did not, which resulted in the other party submitting it to the court and it became an order. Then, I asked him to proceed an object to the order as he said he thought they were still in the meet and confer process and we were not served properly. He did not return my calls or email, and now I am stuck with an order I strongly disagreed with. I'm surprised by the high reviews on here. It was terrible and a breach of his responsibility as my attorney. I would have been better off representing myself, and submitting my own objections. He took my money and caused nothing but problems.

I hired Patrick for my divorce and he has been so incredible the entire process. He has helped me get all that I asked for in my divorce. Patrick and his team are responsive, knowledgeable, reliable, and have walked me through the steps of divorce. He help treated me with the upmost respect and so did his wonderful staff. Everything got completed in a timely manner and in court appearance he makes the process easy and simple. I would highly recommend Patrick and his team to help you in your divorce, custody or bankruptcy cases.

I was from out of state and I needed a lawyer to represent me in California regarding a restraining order that was place on me and also to guide me in enforcing an out of state guardiaship order. I received excellent services. I had no idea who to call for representation . Patrick quickly responded to my initial call. Communication was excellent. Kept in touch frequently either by phone calls or emails.I also spoke with Martha his Paralegal and she would always respond immediately answering my questions and concerns. Always sending all the necessary paperwork in a timely manner. Mr.O' Kennedy and Martha were always on top of all matters. Court was the first time I actually met Mr Kennedy, right away I was at ease talking to him. He did an excellent job representing me in court . I had full confidence in him at all times. We had another court date which he was able to ask the judge to allow me to do it over the phone rather than having to fly back to California. He went above and beyond. Martha also went above and beyond. Both were very pleasant and knowledgeable. If anyone needs a good family law attorney Mr O'Kennedy is the lawyer you need. You will not be sorry to hire him. Finally was able to bring my granddaughter home back Thank you so much for your service and help.

I hired Patrick to represent me in 2 custody cases. One was for custody and the other was for a move away. In both cases I received excellent service, communication was awesome, whether I called or e-mailed I always received a timely response. I usually called Martha his Paralegal and she would always respond immediately and if she did not have an answer she would have one by end of day. I never had to wait to see what was filed, my copies were always e-mailed to me so I always knew what movement was going on in my case. - At court Patrick was on time (actually he was there early), checked us in. The first case we did not go in front of the judge as we met with the other parties attorney and hashed out all the details. Sometimes I did not know what Patrick was doing and at times was wondering but then I would see what his method was, why he did what he did, I had full confidence that he knew what he was doing, and what he was talking about and with that first case it went perfect!! The second case was a bit more difficult and I was nervous, Patrick kept calm and did his "homework" per say, There were times that I wanted to mention so many things to the judge and did not know why Patrick wasn't, but again he had his strategy and kept it simple and to the point and got the results wanted. And once again my full confidence was in him. When you are discussing your kids, it's important to feel that your attorney knows what they are doing, after all they are fighting for your precious kids. And I truly feel that this attorney went above and beyond!!! I don't ever need to shop for another attorney, I've found MY family law attorney.
