About Prior Esquire, LLC
Kendall started this solo law firm with the goal of prioritizing volunteer and low-cost legal services. She has seen firsthand how family law and estate planning can have major impacts on individuals and families, especially when barriers to entry prevent access to necessary legal services. Prior Esquire, LLC wants to help break down those barriers. By operating as a solo firm, Kendall has the flexibility to work on her own schedule and focus on each client as an individual, with an emphasis on communication and tailoring each case to the needs of the client.
Kendall graduated from the University of Minnesota Law School in 2023. While there, she interned for the Minnesota Disability Law Center, Mid-Minnesota Legal Aid, and Rainbow Health. She worked as a Certified Student Attorney in the Family Law Clinic, where she first fell in love with family law. She volunteered her time through the Minnesota Justice Foundation and the Civic Scholars Initiative.
She is a member of the Minnesota State Bar Association, the Hennepin County Bar Association, the Ramsey County Bar Association, and the Minnesota Lavender Bar Association. She currently volunteers through the Volunteer Lawyers Network (VLN) and MN Legal Advice.
Kendall is licensed to practice law in Minnesota. She enjoys living in the Twin Cities with her partner and their two cats.
