WIN WIN WIN

John has been very helpful to me on several different occasions!! His down to earth attitude and communication made my divorce as easy as it could be. Never being divorced before, I was a little scared at first, but John made it a very relaxed and an easy process. The staff John has around him is ...second to none. I have referred John on several occasions and everyone has nothing but the best to say about him!!! In the end I was more than happy with my outcome and gained a buddy along the way!!

Child Custody Case

John Kinney simply wants one thing - to make a lot of money. I spent over $15,000 with him for a child custody case that consisted of a year of "motions to continue". He drug the case out for over a year. When I finally retained a reputable attorney, I spent $2,500 with him and within ONE month he... was able to get me full custody. John Kinney could take a few lessons from his colleagues in the legal profession.

I have searched our database of client names and can find no one I have ever represented named "Kendra" and no one fitting this fact pattern, or anything close to this pattern, at least not in the last one to three years.

Handled my incredibly complex divorce and I came out on top!

John Kinney handled what turned out to be a 40 month long contentious divorce for me. The case included multiple businesses, child custody, a large asset pool, a Guardian Ad Litem, forensic psychiatrists, 2 judges, multiple Attorneys, expert witness, 2 trials, and stall and delay tactics. What he ...told me before the first hearing turned out to be true 40 months later. His skills in litigation, his tenacity, his knowledge of the law, his experience and his financial acumen and the way he could cross-examine witnesses was unreal. He successfully negotiated a more than favorable agreement on child custody and disposition of the marital home and the result of two trials was what he advised he could make happen on the division of the marital assets. As a ex-lawyer and someone with a JD/MBA, I was impressed and recommend him. The cost of all of this was well below what I would have expected for what I consider the best representation I could have received for my Divorce.

You Should Trust John!

Through the most difficult time I've ever had, John was the best decision. John is trustworthy and knowledgeable. I turned to John after 2 other attorneys could not help me get through my annulment -- not only did he get it done but he lightened my burden. I cannot say enough about John other tha...n go meet him and hire him!

Outstand Service and Legal Advice

I hired Mr. John Kinney in 2009 to help with my divorce. John provided me with outstanding advice and legal service. Everything I asked for John delivered on. Going thru a divorce is a very emotional and tough experience. John and his firm always put me at ease. When the divorce was final John c...ame thru on everything I asked for. Thru the yrs I have gone back to John for various other legal matters and he continually provides the best possible outcome. I would highly recommend John Kinney and Kinney Law Firm. John has put together a team of persistent, intelligent and diligent employees that always welcome me with open arms. I’ll continue to use Kinney Law Firm and recommend them to any one asking for legal assistance.
