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.

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.

Extremely Challenging Case

From day one, John has gone above and beyond the call of duty. Sadly, my case required the intervention of several mental health professionals as well as law enforcement agents. John's compassion and understanding throughout the entire process provided reassurance and comfort, knowing that I had a...n aggressive and extremely competent advocate in my corner. Thanks to John, his tenacious pursuit of what's right, and his ability to rally the necessary experts, my children are safe and I have a new beginning. I will be forever grateful to him. Finally, Marie, provided a great deal of emotional support throughout the whole process...the two of them make a wonderful team.

Excellent Attorney and Great Person

John handled my wiretapping case. It is still in the works but he has been GREAT! I work in an attorney's office in Houston. John has been wonderful throughout the whole process. I wish he was here in Houston to handle the custody issues.
