Ken Kaplan is the kind of attorney you want when dealing with a difficult divorce, and would be equally effective at less contentious divorces and custody situations. My abusive spouse has dedicated significant resources to attempt to financially drain me, and further harass me, using the family court system. Ken has minimized the stress that leaving any marriage, let alone a marriage to an abuser that involves a minor child, can cause. As well, he has kept cost down to a minimum, despite the excessive motions filed multiple times a week in my case by opposing counsel. The other attorney seems bent on just running up legal fees filing motions with no real merit. Ken effectively deals with each situation, deftly discrediting the other attorneys motions, and does so at a minimum of stress and cost to me.
Additionally, I have had the unfortunate experience of seeing many lawyers in action, because of this abusive spouse and his crimes resulting in a trial with convictions, and now family court. Ken is particularly effective in court! He confidently argues a case better than the other attorneys. This is truly essential, because writing motions won't matter much if the attorney gets into court and can't argue a case well. I have watched Ken repeatedly discredit the arguments of the opposing attorney in my divorce. Watching the other attorney bumble, start testifying himself, and otherwise become flustered during his arguments when faced with the concise, compelling, and effective arguments of Ken assured me that I was in good legal hands with an experienced attorney.
