Happy Father

Divorce is a difficult and an all-around miserable process. It was the most difficult experience in my life thus far. Trusting someone with your well-being and in my case, my child's well-being was not easy. I am very thankful for John Kinney and his team. His experience and knowledge on divorce,... child custody and the court system was clear throughout the process. The team in the office is accessible and knowledgeable as well. John guided me through a difficult custody battle. He was able to negotiate a fair property settlement for me and his skills in the courtroom awarded me the joint custody that I sought. What I respect most about John is that he was honest and upfront with me from my initial consultation to the moments after my trial. John is an excellent attorney and I am forever grateful for the extra time he helped me get with my daughter.

Divorce

Mr. Kinney's provided excellent legal counsel and service during my divorce. I hired John when my former spouse refused to do mediation. He advised me at the very beginning where he perceived to be resistance and challenges throughout the process. (of which he was "spot-on"). I was pleased with the... legal counsel and am so thankful I listened to and followed his advice. John has created a culture in his firm that is non-intimidating for the client. From the first interview to the completion of your case he and his staff are approachable and professional.

Legal Knowledge. Human Wisdom.

To rate Kinney Law, you would need much more than just 5 stars. In my custody case John and his staff have gone above and beyond anything I could have expected. From the start of my case I thought my world was coming to an end and John and his staff took the time to help me understand how we were go...ing to approach the case legally, as well as, showed me the compassion to help me personally feel better again. The legal knowledge that John and his staff has is phenomenal, and assisted me in my case in ways I never imagined. Without John and his staff I don't believe I would have the parenting time I have today. I could not have made a better choice. I highly recommend Kinney Law.

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!!
