Tully Rinckey, PLLC

I utilized Tully Rinckey’s services for my marital separation, will, healthcare proxy and power of attorney. My experience with Tully Rinckey started by reviewing their website and found the information Barbara King shared along with her video regarding separation and divorce was extremely helpful before hiring this firm for my needs. Upon hiring Barbara, she discussed several options for me including a mediator along with her as my advisor and this proved to be the best option for me with the least about of costs. Her experience, advice and review of my case was exceptional and I would recommend her any time. My services for the will, proxy etc., was average and I did not receive the level of service I did with Barbara.

Attorney Anthony Kuhn was able to negotiate the dismissal of involuntary administrative separation proceedings against me and arrange for me to voluntarily retire. After a second GOMOR was permanently filed in my personnel file, the Army informed me that I was facing involuntary separation. After missing my window to rebut the proceedings, I called Anthony Kuhn for assistance and he assured me that he would do everything in his power to negotiate a dismissal and voluntary retirement. He attacked my matter with the determination, attentiveness and professionalism that I would expect from a seasoned attorney and fellow combative Veteran. He made it clear from the start that he was personally vested in my matter. As a Sergeant Major and former client, I enthusiastically and unequivocally recommend Attorney and Veteran Anthony Kuhn to any fellow service member or Veteran with a pending Military Law matter.

Hands down worst representation I have ever seen. Had to obtain an attorney Derick Hogan. Young guy not very knowledgeable with criminal law. Didn’t seem to know much about the issue I was dealing with. He pretty much should be on the other side of the court room, not a defense attorney. Treated me as if I was guilty and not innocent like I am.
In the end I spent well over 10K on this guy, I even referred him to a friend in the very beginning. Both I & my friend ended up firing Derick and going with another attorney who was able to settle our cases for a fraction of the cost we spent on this «graduate» attorney.
Completely dissatisfied with his overall performance. Just wish I wouldn’t of given him so much money. Knickeled & dimed every last thing he could.
I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND Derick to anyone for any reason.

I paid for an initial consultation with one of the firms lead partners. I was dealing with a wrongful termination case relating to a FMLA leave. The initial consultation went well and I felt they were well versed in this area of the law. However I did get the impression they were more interested in publicly promoting their firm via numerous media outlets than truly representing me as a client. After the consultation, I was provided with a retainer agreement but it was an extremely limited retainer in comparison to the case discussed. Being a bit suspicious to their approach, I questioned their service, the lawyer assigned to my case, their fee structure and everything started to quickly unravel. I was quoted a specific hourly fee for my representation only to find the assigned attorney was double this rate. When you retain this firm you retain the firm as a whole, not one specific attorney. So beware as the assigned attorney can have an hourly rate drastically exceeding previously discussed fees. With that said, I requested information on which attorney would actually be managing my case. I also requested an updated retainer that wasn’t so limited and would represent the legal work required to complete my case end-​to-​end. Three weeks later, after chasing this numerous times, I still have no answers to my questions. They’ve gone silent and have definitely sent the message they weren’t serious about taking my case or retaining me as a client. I definitely have the impression they were looking to take my initial $ 3,500 retainer and run with it and then drop me as a client if things got too complicated. Even though I really liked the attorney I consulted with, I found out he wouldn’t be representing me. So it appears they put their best foot forward in marketing the firm but then intended to do a bait and switch later. Therefore, overall, I wouldn’t recommend this firm. Even though they may be competent, I think they are mainly after billable hours than defending their clients best interest.

After learning of my pending disenrollment from the Army’s ROTC program, and after looking for attorneys that specialized in this type of litigation, Tully Rinckey was my only option. Senior Associate Chad M. McFarland and his legal team not only treated me with respect and professionalism, but they advocated my case and WON!
In our initial consult, Chad explained step by step on what our options were and how he could «fight it». After signing the retainer agreement, Chad immediately called lower commanders to obtain what the grounds for disenrollment were. Having no success with lower commanders, Chad began calling the higher echelons of Cadet Command and did not stop until he was satisfied with an answer. Having spotted misleading and devious behavior by a commander, Chad begin his case and successfully skewed the case and achieved positive results.
Chad kept me informed each day through email and phone and provided a level of reassurance during some tough times.
I thank Tully Rinckey for having top caliber attorneys, but most importantly, I would like to thank Chad M. McFarland from the bottom of my heart. Job well done!
