“It takes a whole village to raise a child.”
-Igbo and Yoruba (Nigeria) proverb
This popular saying is an excellent introduction to our philosophy here at Kendall Gkikas & Mitchell. It encapsulates the whole thrust of our law practice and its focus on children.
Children are #1
The welfare of children is an essential element of our society. If we’re not properly taking care of children, we’re not progressing, and we’re certainly not thriving. Children everywhere deserve to be nurtured, encouraged, provided for, and loved, especially when their parents are getting divorced.
A professional and personal focus
That’s why at Kendall Gkikas & Mitchell, Kristina Kendall-Gkikas and Thomas Kendall have made children their top priority for over 20 years. The wellbeing of children is a fundamental priority in our professional as well as personal lives.
A Christian tie-in
Thomas is an evangelical Christian who strives to serve all of his clients well, but as a follower of Jesus, children hold a special place in his heart. In Matthew 19, Jesus showed his deep love for children when people brought lots of children to him and the disciples rebuked them.
He said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these” (Matthew 19:14, New International Version).
Jesus didn’t mind being swarmed by children—he welcomed them, he prayed for them, and he defended them from his disciples’ complaints.
Working with Kendall Gkikas & Mitchell, LLP is amazing
When the attorneys at Kendall Gkikas & Mitchell meet with a couple who is considering divorce, especially if they have any children, Kristina and Thomas do everything possible to help them work out the divorce terms peacefully. Mediation is so much better than fighting out custody, child support, and other divorce terms in the often-cold Californian court system.
Parents almost always know what’s best for their children, and at Kendall Gkikas & Mitchell, the attorneys will help you come to an agreement on all aspects of your divorce terms. They know that this can be a challenging time, and will mediate between both parties with respect, compassion, and understanding.
