Thomas Natoli

I hired Mr. Natoli to assist in divorce proceedings. Though it should have been fairly simple, it was a slog from start to finish. The only part that went correctly was filing the papers. First there was a long wait for a court date (this was pre-COVID). After some sleuthing, it was found out t...hat the court clerk had conflated my file with someone elses with a similar last name. Why Natoli didn't check on this before hand, I'll never know. Finally in court, soon to be ex doesn't show up. We reschedule several more times. I tell Natoli that my partner is planning on leaving the country and we need to move fast on this. Natoli either didn't believe me or didn't care but it ended up happening and we rescheduled several more times. Finally, I think that the judge saw how many times I had been to court without my partner showing up and granted me the divorce and a contempt order. The contempt order was never followed up on by Natoli and expired. When all was said and done, it took two years to get any sort of result from this person. He does not communicate effectively. Several times, I had to do nothing short of harassing him in order to get an answer. He does the bare minimum and is callous and uncaring.

He sent me on wild goose chases while leading me on to think he would represent me. I scrambled to get funds up for services and tests that he said I needed in order to have a case. All while being physically ill. He did not return my phonecalls for weeks and when he did, he berated me in a voicem...ail claiming I tried to call too often. This was a time sensitive issue. Time ran out and I was no longer able to gather the evidence to have a solid case. Tom Natoli is super arrogant and tries to be Mr. Cool guy and it's really off putting.
