Born to litigate

I cannot thank Anthony Moreno enough for the exceptional legal representation he provided during one of the most challenging times in my life. Facing a restraining order was emotionally exhausting and incredibly stressful, but Anthony guided me through the entire process with clarity, empathy, and fi...erce dedication. From our first meeting, Anthony treated me with respect and never made me feel judged. He took the time to understand every detail of my case and built a strong, well-prepared defense rooted in facts and the truth. In the courtroom, Anthony was completely in his element—calm, commanding, and persuasive. It was clear to everyone watching that he was born to be a lawyer. Thanks to his expertise, preparation, and confidence, the restraining order was denied. I truly felt like he fought for me when I couldn’t fight for myself. If you need someone to defend your rights and stand by you with both skill and integrity, Anthony Moreno is the attorney you want by your side.

Infidelity

a day ago NEW Moreno Law is a shady practice. They do not guinenly care for clients. They are in it to make money alone. They promise you things they cannot deliver. They cannot be trusted. Be very wary of this practice! Katie and Anthony give the illusion that they have perfect families. They do n...ot and are cheaters and in a relationship together. His wife caught them in the act while they were at their office! Zero stars is not an option.

Care and expertise

Anthony and Katie were extremely professional and meticulous when handling my case for the past 21 months. Due to their dedication to my child (her best interests) and the evidence they presented at trial, I succeeded at getting the parenting plan necessary for my daughter’s highest good. I know exac...tly where I would be without the aid, advice, and counsel they provided and am beyond glad I decided to follow my first mind and hire Moreno Law, to handle this case for my baby girl and I. I can’t lie, these past 2 years were a nightmare, no one should want to go this route; but you must understand that at times this route is absolutely necessary when advocating for what is best for your child and yourself. It would have been tortuous without them being there to explain the law to me and intercede when necessary. There’s no way I would have been able to co-parent as my daughter deserves, without them.

Terrible experience

This attorney knows how to use you just for your money. My case was solely in regards into pleasing one parent and not the child. Totally got jacked by the attorney and the other person on specific paternity case and the child misses or loses out both bad for the child. I wouldn't even give a star. K...ids lives matter. Honestly should be at the heart of major decisions especially children. #honesty

Replied last August 4, 2021

Rebekah, I did NOT represent you. I represented the father of your child and the evidence against you was so strong, the Judge favored my client. You never paid me because I didn't represent you. The problems you are having need to be addressed with your own lawyer...so the fact you are rating me so low is a compliment..because it means I got my client everything he wanted and what's best for your child is limited contact with you until you get help for your issues. I really hope you get it worked out, for your child's sake.

Relationship: Friend

"I've known Anthony since 2011 when we both attended the University of Missouri-Kansas City Law School. Anthony excels in his practice similar to the way he excelled at school. He can, and should(!), be trusted to represent you or your loved ones with any legal issue falling broadly under the scope of family law. He will go to bat for you, potentially when no one else will. He is a dedicated father and husband and is someone that will have his friends' best interest at all times. If you are involved in a legal situation where the future of your family is in jeopardy - you are not providing the resources in order to achieve the best possible outcome for you or your family if you do not have Anthony representing you. I wholeheartedly endorse and trust Anthony."
