Kieffer, David - Kieffer David

I wanted to share alittle of my own experience here. First let me say it truly saddens me that I should even have to report such an experience. I was awarded primary custody of my kids after my divorce. I later returned to court on a emergency order which Dr Kieffer discovered there was no truth to. I later was told by him if I did not pay him a large sum of money he would write a negative report. Needless to say you can imagine my response. I have spent the last 10 years trying to over come and repair the negative report that then caused my youngest children to be placed in a horrible situation. They are now adults and still dealing with the trauma. The good news is I think they will recover. But it has caused many scars. I still remember meeting David in the bathroom after his testimony and him apologizing for his testimony as he knew I was a good father. It was all about the money and referrals from my ex's attorney. Unfortunately the system had put the fox in front of the hen house. I am grateful the system is evolving but it is still to slow to deal with such undermining people. We need real leaders not profiteers more

If you lose a case, it's easier to blame others for your behavior than yourself. I can't let the character assassination continue. Family court proceedings are seldom peaceful and this is a difficult and stressful position that this doctor lovingly puts himself into the middle of. There will always be great hurt, but not intentionally caused by the behavior of this man. Dr. Kieffer saved me. I was a wreck when I went into his office and he knew just how to help, just how to continue serving. I know other families and people that he has served well and is spoken of well by them as well. I give his name and phone number to everyone who is in need. I will be forever grateful for his work... more

David Kieffer is a DEMON!!!! The damage he did to my children can never be repaired! In fact, ""DR. KIEFFER"", if you are reading this...I know you remember me...I am the reason you moved to Broomfield!!! How much did Jim pay you for ""your opinion""??\r STAY AWAY FROM THIS SO CALLED DR.!!!!! IF the court appoints him to your case....FIGHT IT!!!!!\r He is sicker then anyone that enters his office!!!! My now grown children have been abandoned, twice!!!! by the so called ""loving father"" that he convinced the court only wanted what was in their best interest!!! There was physical, mental and sexual abuse IN THE FATHERS home and yet, his opinion to the court was to give him decision making??? And his opinion counted in court!!! My kids suffered....they were innocent victims of a sick father and a sicker court appointed advocate!!!!\r AGAIN!!! STAY AWAY FROM DAVID KIEFFER!!!! HE WILL DESTROY YOUR FAMILY!!!! more

This man will bypass doing any kind of leg work and will stay on with a case only for the money. The well being of the family or the child is moot; Dr. Kieffer is a monster and should have his license taken away from him immediately. I neither won nor lost my case so I am not spewing venom out of spite. He attempted to go above and beyond the monetary ceiling that was placed upon him in our case by going ""around"" the judge and just charging what he felt was fair. The judge ruled that he couldn't do that, and there was hell to pay as a result. He does not care about you and he doesn't care about getting to the bottom of the case he's involved in. In any other forum, his tactics would be considered illegal, especially when it comes to his methods of hitting you up for more and more money when he does absolutely nothing for it. The names I gave him were never contacted; however, he basically said the names he's given seldom are. He's obsessed with the power he has within a courtroom and reminds you constantly of his ability to sway a judge even if you were to appear with a busload of witnesses. Do your best to avoid this man! The fact that he is still able to practice shows that there is a severe flaw within our system. more

Just as Alexa18 states, all is true about Kieffer. I too have first hand experience with this monster. Kieffer manipulates you by way of word and submission of official court documents that make it appear that the best interests of your child would be served by having the court decide in your favor as a parent. BUT, Dr. Jekyll appears in full force on the stand when it comes time to testify before the court. He will lie, manipulate, and mutilate your character before the judge in order to get the judge to align with him, and wa-lah, your on permanent record with the court as a bad parent and you lose all you've been fighting so hard for...to have the best interests of your child served and your custodial rights. Bottom line: you lose your child, you lose your children. Kieffer is a sociopath, a pathological liar with a doctorate degree. Trust me please when I say his work is of the devil. He is a devourer of the human spirit. BE WARNED! He doesn't even deserve the 1 star rating you have to give on order to have your comment published. Even 1 star is a lie. more

Kieffer is a MONSTER by Nicole122 at Citysearch This disgusting joke of a ""professional counselor"" is nothing more than a sociopath. He was my CFI and told me my ex and his wife were undermining me and then wrote ALL in their favor with nothing to back up his very sick and twisted report. I knew going in he was a monster, but I was still stuck with him on my case. He harmed my child and got them to say things they would not. He is a DANGER and should not be able to practice. He favors the attorney who hires him as a loaded gun. This despicable person told me that he has problems with his own son. No doubt, who would want to have this vile man for a father who destroys families for his own sick game and money? He was supposed to put the kids best interests ahead of anything but this lowest form of life cannot do the right thing if it was placed in front of him. I truly believe he will get what is coming to him! more

If there was a way to give this man a rating of negative stars I would. Is he really still allowed to continue to practice?! He was the CFI in my divorce 7 years ago. I found him to be arrogant, lazy and favoring of the dad, no matter the evidence. He ignored abuse and signs of mental illness in my ex husband that have caused me and my kids 7 years of suffering. He did just enough to use up the retainer. He did the bare minimum and did not dig beneath the surface. He did not interview anyone or try to find out if what I was saying was true. I have recently been through another legal battle where my ex husband falsely accused me of parental alienation. This time we had a real CFI who knew what she was doing and really did the work. Not only did the court rule in my favor but they awarded me 100% decision making! For those of you unfortunate enough to know much about the family court system you know that is extremely rare. If Dr. Kieffer had done his job 7 years ago it might have saved me and my kids years of pain and suffering. Maybe if he had cared enough to actually do his job, my ex husband could have gotten the help he needed when it might have been possible for him to change and have a better relationship with his children. Now, his illness has advanced to the point that I am not sure that is possible. Is there a way to stop this man from continuing to hurt already suffering families? more

It is very difficult to believe that this disgusting little man is still in business posing as a child and family investigator. Considering the wealth of extremely negative information concerning his conduct and the established fact that he lies and perjures himself under oath, it is an indictment on the family court system that he can persist in destroying the lives of children and those who care most about them. This man always favors the initiating party which is invariably never someone of decent character or intentions. Be especially warned if you happen to be a mother. His report will twist any comments and hearsay into ?evidence? for character assassination. Beware! Everything you say will be used against you. Never assume that this man will do the right thing even though he may act like he is on your side. This evil little character needs to be shut down for good. more

Anyone who has problems with psycho Kieffer as their CFI can NOW complain to DORA and they will finally be able to investigate complaints as the laws have changed regarding CFI's in a court appointed role. PLEASE PLEASE complaiin as we need to have this sick man removed as a CFI from hurting families, especially children. Remember he gets a lot of pleasure and money from destroying lives. STOP him to protect the public. more

Read all of these court cases about this man!!! more

I am a patient of his from an entire decade ago and I still hold great resentment and hatred for this man. Although he wasn't the only person to drag my family through hell for 8 years, he was a key role and was more than a vital participant in the damage that was done. For me to look him up a decade later, in hopes that he's been stripped of all practices tells you what a horrible person this man is. I wouldn't wish his advice or wrath on my worst enemy. As a current Psychology student, I'm amazed to see that he is still able to practice despite his obvious ethics more

Make that a Negative score please. more

David Kieffer is the most unprofessional, unethical person I've dealt with in my adult life. And I had to pay for his unprofessional services - that really chapped my hide! Do not use Kieffer's services for ANY reason; he'll do your family WRONG! The only reason I gave him one star is because a rating is required. They should offer negative stars, I would've given him FIVE! more

Dr. Kieffer has been a fantastic resource for us and our ADD son for over a year now. If you have a child with ADD I can't recommend Dr. Kieffer enough. more

Dr. Kieffer was the child advocate in my case and has done nothing but hurt my children. That is his pattern over and over again. Don't just trust me read all about him on knowyourcourts he has a history of horrible work. Check it out before you ever do any business with this man. It doesn't get worse than Dr. David Kieffer more
