Barbara Kuehn has a conviction for embezzling from her former client and was disbarred for a year. I wish I had done my research before wasting my time. She not only overcharged for shoddy services performed, but tried to charge for services not performed. She was so greedy that I kept checking to see if she had taken my wallet.

BARBARA JEAN KUEHN [#152283], 47, of Burlingame was suspended for three years, stayed, placed on three years of probation with a one-year actual suspension, and was ordered to take the MPRE. Credit toward the actual suspension will be given for an interim suspension which began Dec. 5, 1998. The order took effect Sept. 17, 1999.
Kuehn represented a woman in a dissolution in which the family home was sold, profits were to be split 50-50 after payment of debts, and Kuehn was entrusted with the proceeds of the sale.
She distributed more than $6,000 of the entrusted funds to herself without obtaining the courts authorization. As a result, she was charged with, and pleaded no contest to, embezzlement. She agreed to cease practice for one year, home detention for six months, a fine of $3,750, three years of probation and 200 hours of community service.

Barbara is representing herself to be a victim of unfair critisism without substance or truth. People in this profession usually do not have others making such an effort to post unthruths unless there is a good reason for it. As the saying goes, where there is smoke there is fire
I delt with with this woman some years ago. She is vicious and unprofessional.

Did Not Want To Pay His Bill

This person is one who did not want to pay his final bill of approximately $2,500.00 and then filed bankruptcy. I have never charged any of my clients for services that were never performed. Greed is not a word that anywhere describes my office. We undercharge to make sure that the clients are able to pay their bills. In most cases, the opposing party has paid their attorney 3, 4 or 5 times what our clients were charged. Also, I was never disbarred for a year. Remember, things are not always as they seem or read on paper. Don't listen to a stranger for advice. Would you listen to a stranger for advice on any other issue so personal to you. I think not.
