G. Ronald Kesinger, Attorney At Law
Life ruined over Forgery

I was the victim of forgery. A man from Morgan County, Illinois went to Clinton County Illinois and took out a loan in the amount of 80,000.00 for a house. He signed his name to this loan and then proceeded to either a) sign my name next to his or b) have someone else sign my name next to his as a cosignor. This all took place in front of a notary, in Clinton County. Why Clinton County? No one has the answer to that question.

I was totally unaware of this until I was served one day with papers stating that I was being sued for this loan and that this bank was doing a forclosure. I contacted my local law enforcement and was directed to the county where this man lived. I was then instructed to consult an attorney.

In May of I contacted Mr. Kesinger who seemed to be more than willing to assure me that everything would be taken care of, after of course I handed him a check for 2500.00. I was inform by Mr. Kesinger that this was pretty much an open/close case of forgery. I was told that the bank would be held responsible, the notary would be held responsible as well as the man who placed my signiture on the the loan. It was an easy case. I was also informed that we would be suing for a very large sum of money as we would never be able to remove this from my credit. I asked about filing criminal charges and was informed not to by Mr. Kesinger because we stood to regain my loss if I let him take care of everything.

Directly after hiring Mr. Kesinger, I was informed that the man from Morgan county had filed bankrupsty and completely left me holding the bag for this loan / forclosure and that there was nothing to be gained since he now had nothing, but that we would still continue on with the bank and the notary. I called Mr. Kesinger's office and informed his secretary that this man was selling a substantial amount of property, she said she gave him the message. Mr. Kesinger never followed up on this nor would he return my calls. I went to Mr. Kesinger's office, he would never see me, why? I don't understand as he had been paid to represent me.
I called Mr. Kesinger on several occassions and he would never return my call. This went on for two years.

I finally wrote him a letter and demanded an answer. At that point he responded, that the bank sold the house and recouped their money and that since I was not out cash, that I pretty much was out of luck. This house sold a year ago, I was never informed, as he would not speak to me. So why didn't he proceed with the notary? I don't know because once again, Mr. Kesinger stopped working my case after the bankrupsty was filed and would not face me to tell me that, even though he had been paid. Mr. Kesingers response in his letter to me dated 3/19/08 stated that he didn't feel that it would be in my best interest or HIS to continue on.

The truth of the matter is that my interest flew out the door as soon as he cashed my check and the most work that I got out of him was him cashing my check. He also failed to tell me that once this man filed bankrupsty that it became a Federal case and that this forgery is a class 3 felony. There had to have been false statements given in bankrupsty court and when I asked to challenge the bankrupsty, Mr. Kesinger blew me off again.

In trusting Mr. Kesinger to help me, I may have to just let this forgery go unpunished because there is a three year statue of limitation on this and I only have a year left. There is nothing like letting someone ruin your life and then paying Mr. Kesinger to help them.
