Kearney Gary W Atty

If you’ve got a HUGE case that can make Gary Kearney A LOT of money, and pad his hours, then he’s probably your guy. However, if you’re a regular person struggling to collect back alimony KEEP MOVING.
In our first meeting Mr. Kearney had me bring in all my records, he indicated it was a small case, (roughly $ 50,000 owed) and would take about a month to 6 weeks to settle. I indicated speed and controlling cost was of the essence.
I should have walked away then, instead I paid him the $ 2500 retainer.
Despite reaching out over the course of the next 3 months; trying to follow up on the status of my case, little to nothing occurred. Mostly, I was told by his secretary he was on a big case and would get back to me when he could… no idea when that would be.
Ultimately, the Marshall finally seized my ex’s bank account.(I learned this not from my lawyer, but from my daughter). When I called Kearney Baker to ask why I hadn’t been informed they couldn’t give me an answer. Yet the fees kept mounting.
Over the course of several weeks it also came to my attention that my emails to the office weren’t going through… it turned out their firewall was bouncing them back.
When my ex died suddenly I sent Mr Kearney a total of two emails asking him for the status of my case. These were boilerplate questions for which I was bill $ 495.
When I wrote to tell him how unhappy I was with the handling of the case he didn’t deem it worthy of his time to respond. What a great advocate.
Due to the length of the process, I ended up receiving about $ 12,500 and it cost me almost $ 5,000.
THIS MAN IS WHAT MAKES PEOPLE THINK LAWYERS ARE MONEY GRUBBERS.
