Right from the first email from him, he sent me over a document to sign for a divorce and all the…read morepronouns were wrong. I had to correct all the docs before signing. My very first appointment with him at his office was a fiasco. They moved their office and never bothered to tell me or leave a sign on the old door with directions on where to go. He let my ex get away with ALL of our assets. My ex purchased a brand new truck, sold OUR boat for $36k to pay for it, then took $20k of OUR savings to pay the car loan off!! When I sent him a video proving that my ex was hiding our marital belongings at a neighbors house, he did absolutely nothing to stop him. My ex sold all of our furniture off and donated many of my things to Goodwill. After being emotionally abused by my ex for 38 years, to have my own lawyer gaslight me was pretty disgusting. Do not recommend.

THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!…read more Our son was fortunate to be able to retain the services of Matt Kowtko from the Kowtko Law Group. Matt helped us during the most difficult year of our lives. Our son was wrongfully accused and was charged with serious capital crimes. These offenses were to be punishable by life imprisonment with no parole and possibly the death penalty. Needless to say, we were horrified. From the moment we met with Matt and his team, we immediately knew they would do their best to defend our son. Matt is truly exceptional, and his legal expertise is top notch. He was always available to listen to ALL our concerns and provided the best possible explanation of the legal system. His aggressive defense strategies as well as his detail to all the research were absolutely astounding. When we started feeling unsure, Matt was able to reassure us that we were in good hands. He will not sugar coat anything; he gives it to you straight. We were also very fortunate that Matt partnered with Attorney Allan Baily who is thorough and very knowledgeable. When you hire Matt, you get it all - he will NOT quit on you. He will put everything he can into defending you and we are forever GRATEFUL. Ultimately, our son was acquitted on all counts!! We recommend Matt Kowtko without reservation to take on any legal matter; he is the best!!

We knew nothing going into this process except that we would need to implicitly trust whoever we were working with 100% and just hope for the best. Sean and Loretta put the work in, helped us to understand each step and decision along the way, and pulled us throughout without missteps or regrets. No one wants to have to get a lawyer, but honestly having now dealt with more than I've ever expected to have to, no one was more professional or thoughtful or careful than Sean and Loretta. They were our rock, our team, and our lighthouse no matter what we'd have to weather and I'm so grateful for their support and expertise. I learned a lot about closing an estate (real estate and taxes and probate and titles!), but they never made me feel as though I should've known any of this beforehand (because why would I?). Their patience and understanding and empathy was truly above and beyond. If they'll take your care, put them on retainer immediately without hesitation. Best of luck (although you don't need as much when you're with the pros).

While the firm's response states that I was not a client, I interacted with them on behalf of my…read moremother who was their client and who was dying of metastatic breast cancer. I was treated rudely. My mother's revised will was drafted perfunctorily. (Language in it was in the male gender. Had anyone proofread it?) The will had been redrafted from an earlier version according to my mother's instructions, but was unsigned and the firm had not followed up with her to make sure she signed it. As the co-executor named in the will they drafted I called to see if the firm had a signed copy on file and was blown off. Then my mother died and her old will, the un-revised one, became the legal will. The bottom line: her grandkids got cut out of their inheritance. And the firm hit the estate with a bill for revising the old will, the one they didn't follow up on that led to an estate mess.

And speaking of Grace, that also happens to be his assistants name. She is lovely. So helpful and always on top of everything. They both are. We live in California and my son hired Marc to help with his custody case in Florida. Things are way more difficult and there are many more obstacles when you are 2500 miles apart. Marc made things so much more bareable. He treated us all like we mattered and he was fighting for my Grandson to be able to come to California and see his family. Without Marc I strongly believe that we still wouldn't have seen him. Thanks to Marc he finally got to come last month. He is 5. He was thrilled, he actually cried happy tears. If you are looking for someone who understands that entire families are affected by custody battles then Mr Tenney is a good match for you. The man has the patience of a saint. He fights fair for you and doesn't stoop to the level of opposing council, by slinging insults and rude inappropriate comments in front of the judge and mediator. Good for you Marc, you are a man of integrity. This Grandma is forever grateful for you - Angie

To start this review - to come and finish very soon. This woman Cheryl is a horrible person! I must…read moresay the reviews I looked at were at least 2 years old so I gotta bring you up to date on this wicked terrible human being. First, she's not even close to being upfront - pricing confirmed at $625.50 October 2024 pressured to pay upfront in order to have this "questionnaire" PDF form emailed, and because pricing was going to the first of the year 2025, okay. BTW, I was UPFRONT about waiting for OFFICIAL CONFIRMATION from an agency they needed proof of divorce - without that my very simple uncontested divorce was NOT NEEDED, Cheryl agreed and said Oh no problem. I felt reasonably safe since her only acceptable payment was PayPal, which was great for me should anything go sour PayPal would refund my money (more about this later). Only after the very first introduction phonecall every subsequent communications were through email, another great thing since everything had been documented in writing . Okay, so Cheryl sent out a general email around January 2025 about delays from the 2 massive hurricanes we had back to back, Christmas and New Year's, and other stuff going on with her in her personal life. I immediately replied that she need not worry about me I was still waiting on official notification on whether or not I even needed to go through with a divorce, and I was in no immediate hurry and she need not worry about me (I thought I was actually doing her a favor by letting her know there was no pressure on my end). January, February, March through May I've still not heard a word from the agency and I believed I never would, which actually proved correct since I was approved without getting a divorce. I began the process to reach Cheryl to let her know I was not going to need a divorce and ask her to refund my money - I left countless voicemail messages for her (no answer, no one covering for her in her office to take messages, sent emails no replies nothing. It was only after about 2 weeks of unanswered messages I left she FINALLY replied to my email, but it was NOT a kind email which floored me I was not ready for that one! She's screaming at me why would I not think she would be sick or something in Tampa? Then she proceeded to go through her whole life story about all her illnesses and stuff...I was completely taken aback! I told her I was not a mind-reader and that it was unacceptable to be hollering at me when all I did was leave nothing but kind and polite messages asking her to please contact me I needed to speak with her - that's it. It was not my fault she's running a lean business without any type of help to field her calls and daily activities! And not only did I not need her services, but that I no longer wanted anything to do with her! Well something went off with her when I simply said that because she became VERY nasty and horrible with me none of which I deserved! I couldn't believe it, especially when she was placing all the blame on me! What?! It was just nuts. She didn't stop there, oh no no no no she continued her nasty and vindictive wrath by refusing to refund my money - G-d only knows what kind of lies she told PayPal to justify why she's hijacking my money. I need to clarify something - IF Cheryl had done ANYTHING even slightly more than only emailing about 6-8 pages of a PDF form she calls a "questionnaire," as G-d my only witness I would never, ever renege on a deal! To ME a deal is a deal regardless of this non-existent contract which I signed nothing! She's wrong to not refund my money - and I certainly cannot afford this kind of a loss, nor should I have to! Not that this should matter but my only source of income is Social Security barely above the poverty line! It's disgusting what Cheryl has done as a result of her madness in anger completely and totally unjustified! It's sad actually. I REFUSE to let her get away with this despicable act and hijack my money so now I have to spend about half that expenditure to sue her, and that SUCKS!!! Well I went far far beyond what I wanted to tonight, though I'm glad I did because it's work I need to do anyway to prep an answer . It's not really done I think there's a few things missing, and I didn't go through it to read how it sounds and fix typos but I'm gonna post it for now. My review is my honest, HONEST story. I don't lie! The truth used to be the hardest thing in the world for me to do as a little kid, like most I was afraid of the consequences. I can't tell you when exactly but I eventually learned I was a terrible liar - I would get super & embarrassed with a red face a very uncomfortable feeling. That's when I decided to just tell the truth and deal with it - far, far easier to do, and still a fairly young guy. I'm 68 and have been truthful in everything and with everyone for a very long time - and I feel great inside because of it! My dad, who's still alive still doesn't believe me - it sucks. Best, Joel

I had hired this man for a case four years ago and needed an attorney again recently. I have a long…read morehistory so I knew I needed someone who was going to fight for me. There is not any other attorney I would trust to fight for me like he did. I was facing six months in the county jail and he was able to negotiate the state down to three. We were trying to get no jail time and his recommendation was open plea to the judge; a long shot yes, however, I put my trust in him. He went to bat for me and presented an amazing case and got me one year county probation. Let me just say if you want a man who will fight for you until the end, this is the man for you. You may not communicate with him much during the course of the case, but rest assured he is working for you. I can't say enough about how much he fought for me and how much I appreciate the work he did.

I'm…read morewriting now because prospective clients deserve to hear how past clients experienced the representation. I came in with documentation, a clear objective, and something I had spent years building. What I experienced was a steadily increasing bill while the result I had hired counsel to pursue seemed to move further out of reach. Motions were filed and hours were billed, but I never felt I had a clear picture of whether continuing the litigation was in my interest. What has stayed with me most is one word. As my finances deteriorated under the weight of the litigation, I recall being referred to as a "bleeder." I was a client watching my savings disappear while the meter continued to run, and that word profoundly changed the way I viewed the attorney-client relationship. Eventually, I decided I could no longer afford to continue. More than twenty years have passed. People and practices can change, and I have no knowledge of how Mr. Inverso practices today. But this was my experience, and I have never forgotten it.
