Poor customer service

Without going into specific detail, we were unhappy with the service we received from Elizabeth. After expressing our dissatisfaction, we feel we received dismissive responses and poor customer service from her.

A true animal law expert

Elizabeth was successful in helping us achieve a favorable outcome for myself and my daughters in a highly sensitive animal law case in Northern Colorado. She handled our case with incredible compassion, and legal expertise. Elizabeth navigated a highly complex legal and community environment with st...eadfastness and utmost professionalism. I know that we were only successful because of Elizabeth - thank you so very much!

Professional, dedicated, trustworthy

Liz Kearney helped me during one of the most stressful and emotional time of my life when enduring employment discrimination and hostile work environment issues within a government entity. She was always professional, dedicated, trustworthy, and represented my case with integrity and drive. I was ver...y satisfied with the outcome of my case, mostly because to Liz, I was a person and not just a case number. She listened to me when I desired to bring forth evidence and information to support my claims and she fought for me in my own drive for acknowledgment and justice. I highly recommend attorney Liz Kearney. Her intelligence, perseverance, knowledge of the laws, and refusal to be intimidated by high power agencies and personnel was very much appreciated during such a traumatic time.

Excellent Working Relationship

Have worked with Liz both in my personal life (last will) and in business (as a board member of a non-profit purchasing land from her client) and Liz was very thorough in explaining all the documents we were signing and asking questions to help complete my wife's and my last will.

You want Elizabeth Kearney to be your lawyer!

If you need a lawyer, or competent legal advice or services, I urge you to retain Attorney Elizabeth Kearney. I interviewed three attorneys before meeting with Liz Kearney. She was the first attorney that asked about the details of my case rather than simply what I wanted to get out of legal actio...n. Before agreeing to take my case, Liz made a comprehensive review of the issues at hand, and gave me an honest perspective. She said quite clearly that she would only take a case that had a good chance of succeeding and that could be an important legal precedence. Further, she told me she was not afraid to go to hearing, and would fully respect my opinions if settlement was to be considered. By the time I signed with Liz, we had a comprehensive game plan and I was very comfortable with our chances. I would like to believe I worked with Liz on my case. She gave good instructions and feedback, and we assembled the facts of the case together. By the time we went to hearing, she knew the story and the witnesses fully, so her questions were probing and direct. I also felt well-prepared, so when facing the other attorneys, thanks to Liz's preparation, my testimony was clear, had impact, and didn't overreach. We had a fair judge, and I knew Liz's argumentation had effectively neutralized the opposing counsel's defense. Liz stood firmly by me through the fact-gathering period, the hearing, and the appeal by the defense. In the end, we not only prevailed on the legal issue, but were well-compensated, both financially and emotionally. Thanks to Liz, I feel I got justice. I have recommended Liz several times since the hearing, knowing she will give competent advice and provide valued counsel to my friends who need help. If anyone ever tells you "you need a lawyer," you could not do better than Attorney Liz Kearney.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Elizabeth and I had the pleasure of presenting together at the annual Colorado Employment Law Conference for the Colorado Bar Association. Elizabeth was an incredibly knowledgeable voice on issues pertaining to employee rights in terms of offer letters, non-compete agreements, and employment contracts. She is not only knowledgeable, but has a keen sense of how to resolve an issue. I have recommended people to her and will continue to do so without reservation!"
