Kinnaird Law Firm - Colorado Springs, Colorado

Jose A.

Disabled veteran and first time reviewer of anyone.

Stay away from this law firm.

If you read the low reviews on Google, you'll get the most accurate outlook on the work ethic of this lawyer.

I had a restraining order filed on me based on false claims. I had a police incident report practically proving the claims made were false and on my initial meeting, he was quick to say that he would subpoena the police officer that responded to the incident and that he would get the case dismissed. For this he wanted $1,500. As it was part of a divorce with no kids and complicated finances, he charged a total of $3,500 for both. I spoke with a half dozen law firms before going with his since the task was simple enough that even I myself could have done it but since I couldn't afford mistakes, I instead made the mistake of hiring this lawyer.

The day before the hearing I had to call him since he had not contacted me regarding the case or his process or anything at all. The reason was that he hadn't done anything- He walked in to the court room less than 5 minutes before the hearing began and asked me questions about the restraining order which I provided to him weeks before. Apparently he took the time to read it right before the hearing itself because instead of fulfilling his promise, he just asked for a continuance or postponement if you're unfamiliar (and billed me for his appearance). The next hearing went exactly the same way, except it was the other party that requested the continuance (and he billed me for his appearance). After I contacted him demanding he file the evidence I provided to him and ask what his plan was for the next hearing, his response was that he was "hoping the other party doesn't show up". He got his wish (and billed me for his appearance) and the case was dismissed without prejudice after him having done nothing and with a smile that implied a victory, said that even though it can be filed again, he would just take care of it then.

The next problem was the response to a divorce filing. His paralegal called me multiple times the day it was due, the last of which occurred after 4:00PM while she ironed out the details. The response was filed shortly after that and less than an hour from the deadline, which tells me he wouldn't even have time to proofread it. Although his staff is very diligent , friendly and competent, the opposite is all that can be said for this lawyer. In the first hearing dealing with jurisdiction of my divorce, he lost. For context, the other party represents themselves and is a person in their early 20s with zero college and legal training and that's who he lost to. (and he billed me for all of this)

I arranged a meeting in person after this to try to understand why all of this occurred the way it did. The first thing he did in the meeting is remind himself of who I was and my case (he never took the time to learn either of my cases), and after my first query that questioned his level of competence, he immediately offered to withdraw from my case. Having already made the decision to fire him, I pressed forward in the conversation asking him why he failed to get my restraining order case dismissed, to try to get reassurance that he wouldn't lose to court against this person a second time. Instead of providing any explanation, he just reiterated that he would withdraw from my case. I haven't been invoiced for this month yet but I have a feeling I was billed for that as well. The conversation took place over 8 minutes and what I have written here was all he said.

The ordeal I've just related cost me over $3,000. And due to his failure to withdraw from my case within a deadline, the opposing party is filing a complaint with the BAR. I am filing one of my own for obvious reasons.

I don't see any responses to either positive or negative reviews on google, so use that as reference to his method of addressing really just about anything.

Jason was phenomenal! He listened to my issue and provided cost-effective solutions for my debt. I must admit- It is very difficult to come face-to-face with debt; It hurts the ego and has left me with sleepless nights of worry and impending doom. Jason asked the right questions to drill down to my legal rights. He provided me with COMFORT and a plan of action!

So glad to have Kinnaird Law represent me with my case. Jason Kinnaird is just the best! Jason is well respected in the courtroom and represents his clients very well. The staff there is top notch. You couldn’t find a better law firm to represent you.

Jason Kinnaird gave me a new outlook on lawyers, he was kind, compassionate and incredibly knowledgeable about his trade. In a world of lethargic lawyers who just want your money, Jason is a welcome change, he is aggressive to the opposition while being caring and compassionate to his clients. From the moment we stepped foot in his office he put us at ease with his immense knowledge and professional demeanor. Watching him in court was a pleasure as he will fight tooth and nail for your cause! Jason is worth every penny, If you are considering him as your lawyer, just hire this man already! You will not regret it!

I am so grateful that I chose to utilize legal services with this firm! I would highly recommend, here's why.

Firstly, I had multiples cases to resolve and felt very distraught about the whole thing. Jason was comforting and I felt I was in the right place from the start. He sat down with me and had a thorough discussion about the processes and listened to all my questions and concerns without hesitation. He was incredibly knowledgeable and I really felt like he would be able to take care of everything and I could just let go of my stress and doubt. Exactly what I needed! Jason seems like one of the most hard working, thorough lawyers I'd ever come across. He was ontop of everything and to make me feel priority when he had other clients as well was just icing on the cake. With the courts being constantly shut down he also made sure I was ready for the call ins and he always showed up on time. Thank you Jason, Incase you see this I really appreciate all that you've done.

The reception team always answered the phones, and I was always able to get connected to someone who could help me along the way, even if Jason was in the middle of a court session with another client. I ALWAYS felt priority which was amazing. The communication rather via email or phone call was so relieving, I never felt left in the dark or confused about what was going on. I could email them and receive a response within 24 hours, usually much sooner.

I also worked with Mark and Sabrina on another case while Jason was dealing with my other ones and I was nervous at first. I did some research on Mark to see where he came from and studied etc. But everything turned out great. They were able to communicate with eachother and myself well, and get all the required paperwork turned in. Sabrina reached out a lot to make sure everything went smoothly. Mark was kind in making sure I was getting what I wanted and not being taken advantage of.

All in all, everything went about as smoothly as it could given the circumstances. Thank you Kinnaird team, thank you Jason, I am so thankful I chose this firm and heaven forbid I ever need legal services again, here I will go.

Courteous, responsive, and effective. Mr. Kinnaird recently represented me on a traffic matter to great effect. His staff were very responsive and kept me informed in regards to my case and its disposition. Mr. Kinnaird effectively presented my cases in the hearings and got the penalty drastically reduced. Not that I plan to need representation again in the future but, if I do, I'll definitely return to Jason and his firm.

Let me first start by saying, that this law firm was a great pleasure to work with. From Joanna who works in the front office to the attorneys themselves, I have nothing but great things to say about this law firm. They welcome you into a warm and comfortable atmosphere, and treat you with professionalism no matter your situation.

I first began with this law firm in 2010 after moving to Colorado that same year as veteran who was having a very difficult time adjusting to life after returning home. I was truly at rock bottom and couldn't seem to get it together. I was actually in jail when I first met Jason. Unknowingly to me, my mother reached out to Jason in good faith, and he came through in the clutch.

Upon our first meeting at the jail, Jason looked me in my eyes and told me he would do everything he could to help me, and that he did. He worked with my doctors, my family, and the courts to make sure I had the fair treatment and representation I deserved. Never once did he judge or look down at me or my situation. I could feel the sincerity and the care that he put into the cases he represented. Jason not only represented my criminal cases, but because he did such a great job, I hired him for my traffic cases as well. I can honestly says that Jason was a pivotal part in my heading toward a better life.

In 2013, I had the pleasure of working with his father Kenton as well, concerning a custody matter where I was being alienated from my child by her mother. Not only was she creating visitation and relationship problems for my daughter and me, but she also committed fraud and identity theft in which a credit card company came after me for what she did.

While working with Kenton, he gave me the confidence that no matter what the obstacles were, we were going to tackle them together and succeed. Although he knew my prior situations, he felt that there was no reason for a parent who is trying there best to not be allowed to be involved in their child's life, and that's the approach he took with my case. He worked tirelessly to not only clear my name, but to also hold my child's mother accountable for her actions and in 2014 get the visitation process started, which I had been begging for for years.

Even when my child's mother got the jurisdiction switched to a different state, and I move across the country, Kenton still took it upon himself and helped to coordinate with the judge in that state, as well as different resources so that I could continue to get the visitations that I so deserved. He never stopped until I was satisfied.

I can honestly say that not only has my experience, but my family's experience has been A-1. They are very reasonable cost wise, and will even work with you as long as you are up front, honest, and communicate. Anytime I had an issue, they never hassled me like you would find at a lot of your firms.

I would recommend this firm to anyone looking to take care of any legal aspect of your life. They treat you like family, and help you with your problems.

I just want to say thank you to Jason! I have never needed to hire a lawyer before and I could not have ask for anyone better! Being overwhelmed with anxiety and fear, Jason took the time to make me feel heard and validated. He was 100% invested in my case and he never let me down! Always attentive, responsive and never made me feel like I was calling too much or that he didn't have time for me. Jason has a heart for the people and is a justice warrior. I would highly recommend you hiring Jason to be your lawyer, he is the only lawyer I will ever use!
