Excellent representation that exceeded expectation!

Mr. Kenny helped me through a very difficult divorce. He was extremely responsive and Ms. Tammie in his office was also extremely helpful. What we all thought would be an easy resolution turned into a very difficult process, but Ms. Tammie and Mr. Kenny were supportive and persistent throughout. I tr...uly felt they had my best interest at heart. I have heard of other attorneys who do not care or do not respond and Mr. Kenny is nothing like that! Mr. Kenny showed himself to be very knowledgeable of the process and kept me well-informed. Both Mr. Kenny and Ms. Tammie were flexible with my busy schedule and were understanding of the difficulty I endured as a result of this process. I would strongly recommend Mr. Kenny as an attorney!

The bomb

My previous attorney was NOT a family law attorney. John came in when I was in desperate need of help. My ex had set me up with criminal charges, was trying to take away our infant daughter and had emergency hearing already scheduled! John not only got criminal charges dismissed but totally domin...ated in court saving my equal parenting time. When I call or text, he responds and is ready. Even more importantly, he delivers. Any one else saying other wise has no clue what they are talking about.

Get er done!

My Ex told me that her and my daughter were a package deal and if I divorced her I would never see my daughter again. She was almost right until after 3 lawyers found John. He is extremely knowledgeable and laid out the game plan in about 20 minutes. I watched her dominos fall just as John predicted.... Lowered my child support from ridiculousness of $1200 per month to $250 and increased my visitation in one swoop. Who could ask for more?

MAN OF HIS WORD

John C Kenny is a Great Attorney and I felt a bond that was beyond Attorney to Client relationship. I was in a terrible situation and he assured me that I would get everything that I was entitled too with the visitation of my son. He is very knowledgeable of the Laws in Florida and will fight for you... till the end. I was very hesitant because this was a delicate situation and I wanted the best to represent me, and he made me feel at ease with a quick response to the summons and informing me of the laws since I was new to Florida. Mr. Kenny is worth every penny that I spent for his representation and is very fair compared to other attorneys that just wants you to pay before they even talk to you. You won't go wrong with this choice.

A Class Act!

Ladies and Gentlemen..........I beg to differ..........Mr. Kenny is by far thee most professional, knowledgeable and fair Attorney that I have ever worked with. I come from a family of Attorneys so I say this with the utmost honesty! John has gone way and beyond in settling my finance's horrific ch...ild support issues. John and his staff has always replied back to me with Status and Answers to questions even in my most stressful times to get these issues resolved. John is a Gentleman, Professional, and a person who truly cares and NOT an Attorney who is just after ones money. Since I am from New York and our case required a New York Lawyer as well, John took the time to help me pick the right one out. If any one is in need of a SUPERB Attorney.......I guarantee you that John Kenny will get the job done. Thank you John for all that you have done..........continue to do............and most of all for being a Righteous Human Being who CARES!
