I hired Ron Harnden to assist with the acquisition of a small commercial property in Wichita. His 50+ years of experience and recent 'Lawyer of the Year' recognitions in real estate were major factors in my choice. He was undoubtedly competent in handling the transaction details and his knowledge of local regulations was evident. However, the experience felt somewhat transactional. Communication was adequate but not proactive; I often had to follow up for updates, and response times could be slow. For straightforward business or real estate matters, his deep expertise provides a reliable foundation. Just be prepared to manage your own expectations regarding client communication and the pace of the process.
