Posted by anonymous | February 08, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

DO NOT HIRE THIS SO CALLED LAWYER

Hired Mr. Chambers to pursue and protect our grandparents rights regarding visitation with granddaughter. Mr. Chambers was chronically late for court, dressed like a slob, was unfamiliar with basic court procedures, mislead me as to paperwork being filed with sherrif, mislead me on paperwork filed ...with court (in other words, never filed), and by the end of my relationship with this so called attorney, the wife and I had less visitation with granddaughter than before we ever met Mr. Chambers. When questioned about his lateness, unfiled paperwork with sherrif and courts, Chambers had as many excuses as there are days in the month

Posted by anonymous | September 17, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

beware of this attorney

This so called attorney told me that I could move to another part of Massachusetts after my alcoholic abusive ex husband decided to move across the street from me I had full legal sole custody and are divorced the boys were with their dad over Christmas vacation as I finished the move I went to pick ...them up and found that he had filed the paper for me not to take the boys out of Franklin County will chambers then went to court on my behalf and signed temporary physical custody to this man whom he knows is a well-documented criminal without my knowledge called my cell phone after he did this I have been fighting for 3 years now to undo what he has done my boys are still not in a safe home 100% of the time please do not use this attorney he is only for his bank account not for the best interests of any children

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
