I used KSN to handle a contentious probate estate case a few years ago. I spent thousands of…read moredollars and got little in return. I asked the attorney I was working with if he felt confident in handling my case when things escalated or if I should bring in another attorney. The response was they felt it might be best to bring in another attorney to assist. Rather than assisting, I replaced KSN with a different attorney as I'd lost all confidence in their ability to do a good job representing me. If all you need is a simple real estate matter handled they might be ok but not when it comes to more complicated litigation issues.

It takes a special talent to communicate so effortlessly, so succinctly, and so beautifully -- and Judy and her team have it in spades. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and care truly sets them apart. I'm so grateful to have had them guiding this transaction from start to finish and I look forward to my next closing with this dynamic team.

Judy and her excellent team are a well oiled machine that helped my partner and I spot potential issues with our condo purchase and resolve them in a timely manner. They went above and beyond in communicating with us, making sure we understood each step, and easing us through the complex and sometimes maddening process of buying a first home. I knew having an attorney would be necessary, but I had no idea just how much better the experience could be with a great law office backing us up. 10/10 would recommend to anyone, especially those who, as I was, are new to home buying. Their services were worth every penny--they helped us save a few on the way!

Complete waste of time and money. Mr Menges was very unhelpful…read more After we paid our money, he emailed us asking us to fill out an online form which wasn't working correctly, as he seemed to not want to correct his website. We finally got him a scanned physical form, but then he never showed up or represented us at the county appeal. Our appeal was of course denied. We asked about him representing us at a state appeal and he never responded. This resulted in us having a 15% increase in our assessed value for 2022, and now we are looking at a 23% increase for 2024. He set us down a path for which there is no return. Avoid unless you like paying money for no service.

I could not ask for a better experience with a lawyer - he was always timely and professional. Made the whole purchasing and selling experience less stressful.

Him and his business is going down the drain I should've listened to the other reviews where they say he is only in it for the funds because that is the exact experience I went though as well. Once I fired him before trial he attempted to charge me $1,000 for driving back and forth to court. He then claimed he charged $250 an hour to try and reduce the retainer refund by as much as possible. He is a huge scam artist and I wouldn't even hire this guy for a traffic ticket. Besides that his communication skills are horrible I would highly recommend seeing this loser in person before hiring him on the case. Little short guy who wants 4K to bring a case to trail but works worse than a public defender and the court rooms show him not respect. I would hire someone with a little more pull or connections to get things done. This guy just walks around with foggy classes unpre pared half wearing his face mask.
