Kendall, Koenig & Oelsner (KKO)

Kendall, Koenig & Oelsner is a corporate transactional and business law boutique that represents businesses, financial institutions, private equity funds, investors and individuals in a broad range of sophisticated transactional matters. KKO is a trusted advisor to their clients, including as outside general counsel for many businesses. Their attorneys have worked with clients ranging from start-ups to Fortune 100 companies and have assisted clients with deals ranging in values from the thousands to the billions. Every client and project is different, so they work cooperatively with their clients to understand and meet their needs. Rather than herding clients toward ill-suited solutions and models created for others, KKO helps clients find opportunities and solve problems in a manner specially tailored for their particular circumstances. KKO works with clients on transactional legal matters, including mergers and acquisitions, private equity and venture capital investments, securities, credit finance, entity formation and commercial contracts. KKO also assists clients with general legal matters arising in the operation of their business, including documenting employment relationships, preparing incentive plans and maintaining company records.

They are committed to providing the highest level of attentive service and expertise to their clients. If a client or a project is small in size, it does not mean that sophisticated, expert legal service is unwarranted. KKO’s business model allows their experienced and practical attorneys to deliver value through efficiency and creativity.

KKO was designed to provide practical, personalized legal service while substantially reducing the administrative and infrastructure costs that are typically absorbed by clients. Advances in technology have made it possible for a small, dynamic firm like KKO to efficiently serve their clients in Colorado and around the globe without incurring the s
