Professional and reasonable.

I highly recommend hiring the Donahoe Kearney law firm to anyone who is suffering with workman's compensation dilemmas. Frank, Priscilla, Brooke and even the receptionists are all wonderful with answering questions, easing apprehension, and allowing you to be part of the process. Priscilla updated me... through weekly phone calls and constant emails. It was important to feel like the staff was working for my benefit and I felt that with this team. They truly excelled with their services! They succeeded in getting me the treatment that I deserved and handled the case with professionality and purpose! I wish everyone the best of luck and hope your experience with this team is just as good as mine was! Mohamed Abodour

I recently sustained a serious injury to my shoulder after slipping and falling at my workplace. Along with medical treatment I knew I needed legal advice as well, but since I had never been seriously injured at work before I didn't know where or to whom I should turn to for help. During my random ...internet search for an attorney I came across the Donahoe- Kearney website. The website was very informative and seemed to speak to all of my questions and concerns. I was so impressed that I contacted Frank Kearney for an appointment. Both Venessa and Brooke, Frank's staff, were very kind, supportive and professional as they lead me thru the preliminary interview process, and set up my appointment. From the very beginning my association with Frank Kearney concerning my injury has been marked by these two most striking attributes: #1-- Frank Kearney has taken ownership. He has made my problem ; his problem. #2-- Competence. His experience, focus and confidence is impressive. Frank is a winner. I would highly recommend the Donanhoe Kearney Law firm to anyone seeking representation in a workman's compensation claim. I am very grateful for all of Frank Kearney's efforts on my behalf.

Excellent Workers Comp Attorney!

I had an injury at work and was going through the workers comp process on my own. As the case was coming to an end I had a feeling that the insurance company was just trying to save money and close the case, so I reached out to Mr. Kearney. He and his staff definitely had my best interest at hand, ...and were able to negotiate a settlement much higher than what the insurance company would have given me on my own. They kept me up to date through out the entire process, and gave me reasonable expectations as well. I am extremely pleased not only with the results of the case but also with the personable service that I received from Mr. Kearney. He is highly recommended no matter where you are in your case!

Great Experience

After a not so good experience with another attorney that didn’t seem to have my best interests at the forefront, I found Mr. Kearney through this very website. In the midst of dealing with a life changing accident and navigating Workers Comp, it was reassuring to know that my case and wellbeing wer...e finally in good hands. Mr. Kearney and his staff are wonderful. They will work hard on your behalf and communicate with you every step of the way. I can’t thank them enough!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Frank and I have worked on some cases together and we continue to refer matters to him in states where he is licensed, but we are not. Frank is smart and his team is wonderful. You will find that he is low key in the office, and you will find him easy to speak to. Don't be alarmed, however, he is also very well prepared and aggressive in the courtroom."
