Good experience - Divorce and custody

Emmanuel came on board in my divorce 6 weeks prior to my divorce trial. He did an excellent job, and fought for my interests and children. He is not about the money, and has been very kind and workable with me. Divorce is not an easy thing, I had a very complex case. It does not matter how young an ...attorney is, the older ones are burned out, he was right on top of things, always returned my calls, and was very patient. So he does have experience, I would definately use him again, no doubt will have to. I had to fire my previous attorney, he had very bad attorney ethics. Court is not always fair, but Attorney Dockter follows the rules, in order to suceed you have to be a good client too, He is an excellent choice for family law, and will not mislead you, he does listen, and he is knowledgable.

Horrible Experience

He did not represent my needs at all and was misinformed because he didn't listen. He kept a case going that I wanted settled, I believe, to get more money out of the situation.
