Straightforward Testimony & Unbiased Analysis in Legal Malpractice and Ethical Proceedings

Attorneys facing questions of professional responsibility or legal malpractice benefit from an expert who fully understands the stakes and nuances of such matters. At Brenden Kelley Law, we provide expert witness testimony and consulting services for attorneys, law firms, and insurance carriers in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and beyond—grounded in deep legal malpractice experience and an unwavering commitment to calling cases as we see them.
Grievance & Ethics Expertise
- Committee & Panel Service: Having served on grievance committees and ethics and professionalism panels, Brenden Kelley understands the inner workings of disciplinary proceedings, including the procedural considerations and evidentiary standards employed by boards and tribunals.
- Legal Malpractice Attorney: As an actively practicing legal malpractice lawyer who prosecutes professional negligence claims, Brenden brings firsthand insights into the strategic complexities, potential pitfalls, and evidentiary hurdles encountered in these high-stakes cases.
Unbiased Testimony for Both Plaintiffs & Defendants
Whether you represent the accused attorney, the injured client, or the insurance carrier, we offer balanced, fact-based opinions deeply rooted in ethical rules and real-world litigation experience.
- Defense Advantage: If you’re defending against a malpractice claim, having a plaintiff’s lawyer validate your arguments lends tremendous legitimacy and can diffuse claims of bias.
- Plaintiff’s Advantage: For plaintiffs, teaming up with a lawyer who has been in your position—actively holding attorneys accountable—provides a significant advantage. We bring firsthand experience from those very trenches, armed with a clear understanding of the intricacies involved in proving negligence or breaches of fiduciary duty.
In every scenario, Brenden Kelley calls balls and strikes as he sees them, offering an honest assessment of an attorney’s conduct and possible liability—even if it means testifying against a fellow attorney.
