Sharon B Kean, JD

We are the Sharon B Kean, JD, a New Jersey-based legal practice dedicated to serving clients navigating high-stakes, emotionally charged legal matters. Our founder, Sharon Bittner Kean, Esq., was admitted to practice law in both New Jersey and New York, and served as President of the Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers in 2018. We bring extensive trial-level experience representing clients in state and municipal courts, as well as on appeals to the New Jersey Superior Court Appellate Division and the New Jersey Supreme Court. Our practice focuses on two core areas: family law and criminal defense, with deep expertise in matters including divorce, child custody, spousal support, and criminal justice representation. We understand that every clients circumstances and legal needs are unique, so we tailor our strategy to each individual case rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. For cases that require aggressive courtroom advocacy, we fight zealously to protect our clients rights, property, and best interests.

For matters that can be resolved more efficiently, we leverage negotiation and mediation to achieve amicable, favorable outcomes without unnecessary conflict. We are deeply sensitive to the emotional weight of family law disputes, including divorce, child custody fights, and domestic violence cases, and prioritize compassionate support alongside legal guidance. Our team has a proven track record of success, including securing final restraining orders for domestic violence survivors, acquittals in jury trials, and favorable resolutions in complex family law matters. We are committed to transparent communication, keeping clients informed at every stage of their case so they never feel uncertain about the status of their legal matter. Our ultimate goal is to relieve the stress of legal proceedings for our clients, so they can focus on moving forward with their lives while we handle the legal complexities.
