Invested in Our Community

Making an actual, direct impact on the communities we serve, a tradition passed on from our founders, remains important at KMK.  This tradition involves our attorneys and staff contributing to the community and providing pro bono services to organizations devoted to the betterment of communities, and to individuals who are unable to pay for needed legal services.

KMK's Pro Bono Contributions
For many years, KMK has made a strong commitment to the Volunteer Lawyers Project of the Legal Aid Society of Greater Cincinnati, both in terms of financial support as well as providing legal services to indigent clients.  One of KMK’s founding partners, Donald P. Klekamp, is currently serving as president of the Legal Aid Society of Greater Cincinnati.  In the past year, KMK attorneys have contributed hundreds of hours of service to Volunteer Lawyers Project cases, received from the Legal Aid Society.

KMK's Commitment to Community Service, Civic Service, and Charitable Support
In the past two years, our firm has financially supported various local charities, schools, and civic organizations, contributing more than $500,000.  In addition to our monetary donations, our attorneys and staff volunteered a significant number of service hours to varying causes throughout the Greater Cincinnati region.  Below are some of the organizations that KMK has supported with time and resources:
