Very bad experience

Mr. Kuehne did not take any actions that were in my best interest. From outward appearances, one would believe he was representing the opposing party. Mr. Kuehne talked to me in a harsh and condescending manner constantly. On multiple occasions he told me that we were attending hearings for ce...rtain purposes and upon arriving at court, he would meet me in the corridor, having entered into agreements with the opposing side and basically force me into stipulations adverse to my best interest. The negative impact of Mr. Kuehne's representation has cost me the only assets I owned and I have zero quality to my life now. Almost every communication with Mr. Kuehne was recorded or a third party was included because he was so abusive and lied so much that I relied on back up. People are astonished by this counsel's neglect and abuse in the handling of what should have had a positive result for me financially. On a couple of occasions he "quit" my case and within moments, he contacted opposing parties and informed them of actions that were being taken on my behalf. He would then put himself back in the role as my counsel. On one occasion, after forcing me into a stipulation, he told me that my compliance was necessary because he "had to pay the firm's electric bill." He has also remarked after similar adverse stipulations that he "hated what he had to do for money." Mr. Kuehne's bio states that he is a scholar and gentleman. That is hiprocracy. He is rude and sneaky. Shy of pursuing legal remedies, there is no chance for even a normal existence for me. He sacrificed me and worked for opposing side. In fact, opposing party stated that Mr. Kuehne had been compensated on their behalf. Mr. Kuehne's staff is very nice. It would be unsettling to find out that they are knowledgeable of his unscruptulous tactics. I hope this post helps folks with choosing different counsel. I do not wish my outcome on anybody. In closing, I do not know how Bruce Kuehne sleeps at night!

Great Results

Working with Bruce and his team was such a positive experience. My case had a lot of history and involved work in multiple states. Bruce coordinated the entire process from start to finish with professionalism and integrity. I was kept up to date with the progress and options were presented to me s...o that I was able to make an informed decision. I appreciate the personal approach and the consideration for my individual needs.

Divorce

Bruce handled my divorce. My divorce was atypical from the very beginning since my husband had made off with our financial records (long story). I hired Bruce because I had heard he was an excellent litigator; as it turned out, there was no litigation involved. He was also excellent at working a c...ase through to completion. His drafting of the documents involved, alone, was copious work. Bruce was patient and good-spirited throughout. He always responded to my phone calls promptly. He understood that it was an ordeal for me and that money was tight. Opposing counsel was most unpleasant, always raising a ruckus over some tidbit or another (like when he assigned an associate in his firm a small portion of my case) but I could still laugh her off -- I knew I had the better attorney in my corner.
