Terrible experience

I will start with a positive, he does know case law. But after that, impossible to deal with. Does not pay attention during phone calls, is clearly distracted doing other things. And as the other reviews state, loses his temper and gets angry at you when he contradicts himself and when you call him ...out for not hearing anything that you told him. He never does ANY of the things he says he will do. Even after you follow up again. Just a terrible experience and I would not recommend him to anyone.

Angry and a lousy attorney

Ross has a bad temper and is verbally inappropriate. On the day my divorce was finalized, he gritted his teeth at me and said, "If you don't sign this today, I'm going to lose it." So what I got was a lousy divorce contract. He left out incorporating a very important "floor" of a minimum income my ex... had to pay me per month. Later when I saw him back at the courthouse, I was with another attorney. He walked up to me and asked me why I was back. I told him because my ex was yet again unemployed and you didn't put in a floor. He looked at me and said, "Oh but wasn't that assumed?" Then he walked away. Great job Ross.

Unprofessional and lazy

Hired him, lots of talk and no action. Repeatedly raised his voice at me in meetings. Short fuse and no patience. Didn’t follow through on simple requests to file motions. Rarely responded to emails in a timely fashion. Seems like the type trying to collect a paycheck while doing as little work as po...ssible. Bonus points for him if he could berate you along the way. Would not recommend.

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.
