I hired this lawyer and paid in full to do a simple divorce for me. After 2 months he never filed the petition for my divorce. He doesnt return phone calls or emails. He took the money and ran. If you decide to hire this lawyer dont give him any money.

Sometimes I'd get frustrated waiting to hear what was happening with my case but that's because there was no change. "No news is good news!" I was still in my house - for more than two years - during foreclosure procedings so I was able to save money for a new home when it was all over and these lawyers got the bank to drop the balance of the mortgage that I hadn't paid.

Mr. McCaffery is the most responsive lawyer I ever met, even on weekends he calls back and if you try to call and leave messages even late at nite, he will call back usually within 10 minutes. He completely shut down the other side and got the case against me dismissed with one court document.
Lawyer’s Comment:
We recognize this case. We accepted an initial retainer to prepare a divorce filing. After producing all documents for filing we waited weeks for the client to provide requisite court filing fee which was never paid. During this time the client's estranged wife died. As he now is a widower, there is no longer need for divorce. Even if he had provided the court fee, it would be unethical to proceed under the circumstances. We have not returned the earned fee for preparing the the matter for filing as the work was done and any delay in filing was caused by the client. Had the case been filed it would have been summarily dismissed once the court was informed that our client now is a widower.
