Master Lawyer Kendel W. GROOMS

I was born in North Little Rock, AR and have lived in Sherwood for my entire life. I attended high school at Central Arkansas Christian and graduated in 2002.  I graduated from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville in 2006 and from University of Arkansas at Little Rock William H. Bowen School of Law in 2009.I became a lawyer because....I want to help people in their time of need as I would want someone to help me in the same, or similar, situations.What I like most about the law is that:First, it protects me and my family every single day. Second, the law seems very shallow on its surface, but in reality it is very deep and requires someone with a special mind to grasp it, understand it, and be able to apply it to their clients' tactical advantage. Published Cases:Gibbs vs. PrimeLending, A Plains Capital Company, 2011 Ark. 255 (June 16, 2011) Case of first Impression on In Personam Jurisdiction in Arkansas under Arkansas Long Arm Statute. In re Cameron 452 B.R. 754, (May 17, 2011) Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Case.  Construction Contract issue decided under the Proof of Claim bankruptcy statutes and Arkansas contract law. Areas of Practice:     - Real Estate          - Litigation          - Transactions      - Contracts          - Litigation          - Drafting          - Negotiating      - Probate      - Estate Planning          - Wills          - Living Wills          - Trusts          - Powers of Attorney          - Deeds      - Business Law          - Business and Entity Formation      - Foreclosure      - Commercial Law      - Construction Law          - Construction Defects          - Bad House Construction          - Contractor Issues and Insurance      - Personal Injury      - Family Law          - Divorce          - Child Custody          - Guardianship Bar Admissions:     Arkansas Circuit and Supreme Courts 2009     United States District Court for Eastern and Western Districts of Arkansas,                    2009     Oklahoma State Courts, 2018     Texas State Courts, 2019 Bar Association and Professional Activities:     Arkansas Trial Lawyers Association     Arkansas Bar Association     VOCALS Pro Bono
