Our Story
KANE FERGUSON founded Kane Ferguson Law Firm in 2004 to fill a specific and somewhat ambitious niche — to create a boutique practice focused solely on probate litigation and administration, and provide services to this underserved market. Rather than expanding to estate planning and related areas of law, Kane kept his mission focused on probate litigation and administration matters in order to cultivate a deeper understanding and a greater level of expertise in this specialty.
While recent laws regarding trusts and estates have opened up new areas for potential disputes, contesting wills and trusts remains notoriously tricky. While many firms shy away from these challenging cases, Kane created the firm to serve those seeking support for their complex probate needs.
With more full-time employees consisting of seasoned probate attorneys and a dedicated team of support staff, Kane Ferguson Law Firm has grown to become one of the largest — if not the largest — firms in Exeter focused exclusively on probate litigation and administration.

Our Technology
The right technology helps firms run more efficiently, ultimately benefiting clients by providing top-of-the-line services at below-market rates. Kane Ferguson Law Firm is committed to having the latest and newest technologies and invests heavily in tools that promote organization and efficiency. As a result, our firm functions more like a tech company at times than a traditional law firm.
Some of our technological achievements include:
* Since Kane Ferguson Law Firm was established in 2004, our firm has been paperless — a practice Shawn spearheaded at his previous law firm.
* When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, before the stay-at-home order came out, we decided to go fully remote until we could safely work in person again. Because our systems were fully accessible, without limits, anywhere in the world, our firm was up-and-running without limitation within 24 hours of announcing this plan to our staff.
* We recently revamped our office space to make it more accessible for hybrid and remote work, including investing in state-of-the-art videoconferencing technology to ensure that our remote workers feel just as connected to the team as our workers present in the physical office.
* In 2020 , Kane Ferguson Law Firm updated its brand and website to better convey the complexities of our practice and where our talents lie.
