I have been an attorney since 1989 with a strong emphasis on Fathers' Rights and Family Law.  I was a victim parent of parental kidnapping, with my child taken to a foreign country.  With a background also in law enforcement (State Trooper & Drug Enforcement Agent), serving my clients well is my highet priority.. My law enforcement career included Wisconsin State Patrol, Maine Drug Enforcement Agency, Hampden (ME) PD, and Collegedale (TN) PD.. My law practice began with the firm of Paty, Rymer, & Ulin, P.C. in downtown Chattanooga.  From there, I opened my own firm with the name "Kenneth R. Lawson & Associates", and then "Lawson & Newkirk".. Today my firm name is "Ken Lawson Law" and we bring to our clients an expertise in family law, representing both men and women in divorce, custody, child support, both in filing cases and defending them.. I have a burning desire to help people solve problems they are unable to solve themselves.  This is especially so with Fathers' Rights, which have been traditionally minimized in the past.  Although conditions for fathers have changed, Fathers' Rights still often are not protected as they should be.   This burning desire to protect people's rights is at the heart of our motivation to be of help to our clients.   Although I have a hearing impairment, my hearing dog (service dog), Olive, and I are well-recognized in all of the courts.. We have a spanish-speaking staff, so we provide a wide range of services to the Spanish-speaking cultures.
