Excellent DUI and criminal attorney

I attained T.L. Kearney IV when I received my 4th DUI in August of this year. I have a lengthy criminal record and I was facing state incarceration because of my prior record score. Attorney Kearney was honest with me from the moment I met with him. He helped me with the process of completing the DUI... classes and getting into therapy by providing the list of places I could go. He spoke on my behalf sharing with the DA all the process I was making, classes I was attending, and the growth I had made since my DUI. I never felt judged by Attorney Kearney and would highly recommend him to anyone. My outcome from appearing in court in front of the judge with Attorney Kearney was far better then I thought and could have ever gotten without him. He fought for me whole heartily. His staff is friendly, helpful and efficient. I am very fortunate to have had Attorney Kearney and would hire him again and recommend him to anyone needing legal help.

Every situation comes with a backstory and a personal history. We are not here to judge our clients, and never do. That would only get in the way of developing the right attack strategies for the case, and sometimes that backstory is useful to incorporate into our individualized approach. Thank you for being honest with me and believing in the strategy we undertook. I was very pleased with the result as well.

Professional, knowledgeable and personable

When my son was arrested for selling marijuana, I had no idea where to turn and what the laws were. Someone had recommended Mr. Kearney and I couldn't be happier. He kept me informed every step of the way and made sure we knew all of our options. I hear of lawyers that just collect a paycheck but I t...hink Mr. Kearney really cared what happened to my son and was upfront about everything. I would hire him again but I hope I never have to.

I am very happy we were able to achieve the outcome we did, which resulted in your son being free of any conviction and thereby free from any criminal record. He has a bright future ahead of him now, and I have every faith he will utilize the win here to propel himself forward positively.

Personable, timely, knowledgeable

T.L. Kearney is friendly and very knowledgeable. His experience as an assistant district attorney gives him valuable insight into the way the DA’s office operates. He came to our consultation prepared with advice and steps to take to get my case streamlined and off to a fast start. T.L. catered to th...e individual needs of my situation and worked relentlessly to pursue the results we desired.

You are correct, understanding these inner workings is invaluable to developing the best negotiation positions and winning strategies. We will always reject a cookie cutter approach to a case, as every case demands a catered strategy depending upon the individual needs and desires of the client. Thanks for the great review!

DUI situation

I am so glad that I spent the money to hire TL as my lawyer after my first and only DUI. I had already gotten a marijuana related charge expunged from my record long prior to my DUI. But this put me in a position where it was not likely that the DUI would be expunged. TL was honest with me throughout... the entire process and he was always responsive and clear in his communication. He never gave me false hope that the charge would be expunged. BUT, he did work some miracles. I was accepted into the ARD program and my DUI ended up being expunged from my record. At the time of my offense, I was so worried that I would be plagued with a criminal record forever. And had I just gotten a public defender, this very well may have been the case. I was 100% satisfied with TL as my attorney. If you find yourself in the same situation as I did, do yourself a huge favor and hire TL.
