St. Louis Attorney Craig Kallen
I grew up in a single-parent household, so I understand firsthand the struggles that single mothers experience when trying to meet household expenses and responsibilities. This helps me to better understand my clients' situations — especially women who must balance their roles as primary breadwinners for their family and primary caretakers of their children.
I have been practicing law in the St. Louis area since 1994. I practiced for many years at a prominent area firm before beginning my own practice — the Kallen Law Firm, LLC. In 19 years of practicing law, I have handled hundreds of cases and argued a number of appeals before the Missouri Supreme Court. I believe in achieving results for my clients by taking a common sense approach that keeps their goals in mind.
St. Louis Attorney Patrick W. Pedano
After months of clerking for the Kallen Law Firm, I am pleased to join its staff as an Associate Attorney.
I am a product of divorced parents and a split family household. My parents were divorced when I was 12 years old, with both my mother and father later remarrying. Both of my stepparents had children of their own from prior marriages, who became part of my family. As a result, I have experienced firsthand the emotional and financial challenges of divorce and family law issues and seek to help my client navigate the often confusing legal complexities family law litigation can pose.
I am a magna cum laude graduate of Syracuse University’s Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs where I was named the Class of 2006 Graduating Class Marshall and gave the College’s Undergraduate Commencement Address. I am also a recent graduate of Saint Louis University School of Law and was admitted to the Missouri State bar in 2009. While in law school I was awarded an Academic Excellence award for attaining the highest grade in Securities Regulation and was highly involved in the School’s Moot Court and Trial Advocacy programs.
