Knowledgeable, Logical, Responsive

Chris proved knowledgeable and responsive throughout the entire process of a dispute with a former employer. I highly recommend.

Excellent

Mr. McKinney took my case which as he told me originally, "wasn't very strong," and worked hard and after a little over one year, I received a very acceptable settlement. I am very impressed with his service and the support of his entire firm.

Best Attorney Ever!

In late 2017, I was terminated from my position from a local company, a position I had held for 19 years. Being 62 years old, well paid, and well established in the community. I was devastated. There were no other jobs that needed my specific talents in the area. Even if I could relocate, nobody was ...going to hire an expensive old guy that would probably retire within 3 or 4 years. So, I began searching for an attorney, at first just to discuss my options. I was referred to a couple of "big names" in the San Antonio area, who were very polite, but, just my opinion, did not see the "Big Bucks" coming in from a small company in a rural Texas town. One of them referred me to Chris McKinney. That's the best piece of advice I've ever received! I made an appointment with the McKinney Law Firm. From the first meeting, Chris, and his wife Heather, put me at ease. I told them my story, presented the facts as I saw them, and explained how totally worthless I was feeling, and the toll it was taking on me and my family. If you have never gone through something like this, I can assure you that it is horrible. First of all, Chris and Heather have decades of experience in Employment Discrimination law. He explained that age discrimination is against the law. He also explained that in Texas, being a "Right to Work" state, you can be fired for any reason, or no reason at all. The fact that my termination with no severance, no nothing, was not right, in the end that really didn't matter. What DID matter were the reasons I was fired, and if they were legal, or not. That's what I liked about Chris, he tells you what you need to know, not what you want to hear. That is a rare quality in an attorney. Anyway, to cut a long story short, for the next year Chris interviewed other affected employees, investigated my claims, brought in experts to analyze the case, and in short devoted himself to my case fully. He even visited my home, and interviewed my family as to the effect this had had on them. Each step of the way, Chris kept me fully informed of the good, and the not so good news. After 15 months, the case was resolved, and I have now found a good position with a new company. So, life is once again good. I do not wish what I went through on anyone, but if you have been unfairly dismissed from you job because of age, sex, or any other illegal reason, you absolutely CAN NOT find a finer Law Firm to represent you than McKinney Law Firm. Chris and Heather were my attorneys, but I now count them as my good friends. Bill E. Kerrville, TX.

Consultation re Employement Contract

The McKinney law firm is a very professional group. They were very quick to respond to our questions. Chris McKinney was very knowledgeable. It was a pleasure to work with both he and his wife Heather. We went to them with questions in regard to Non-compete agreement and other issues associated ...with a recent termination of employment.

Very Effective, Professional Service - My Highest Recommendation

Chris McKinney consulted with me primarily to develop a strategy to most advantageously exit my existing empoyment contract, so I could accept another job offer. He also helped me review non-compete language in my new employment contract. Chris provided some excellent advice, and he was able to meet ...with me very shortly after my initial inquiry. I'd recommend him to anyone seeking assistance with employment-related legal issues.
