Unbelievably unprofessional

I will give him 1 star and a half because he is flexible with his fees and is very accessible. But he did not make feel a priority, and mainly cannot accept constructive feedback. One month after a trial which I felt he did not do his 100%, nothing was done for my case despite of the deadlines I was ...facing. When I politely expressed my frustration, instead of apologizing and being empathetic, he rudely asked for my address (which he should have had) to drop my file to me. He said he provides exceptional services and is not McDonald's, he does not appreciate MY attitude. I pointed out McDonalds employee never treated me this way. Let me also add that he was constantly on his phone, during recess at court, when we were supposed to be working on the case. I swallowed it all, since I was so grateful for the flexibility in price, but it's totally not worth it. I wish I could attach screen shots of the text messages to this review, as this is how it all went down. I am not sure if he will leave this rating on this page, but please, I would NOT recommend Mr Connelly to anyone going through tough and stressful family situations.

I'm sorry that your experience wasn't what you expected. Litigation requires strength and commitment to winning over what can be a long period of ups and downs. It is vital that the attorney and his client be indivisible. If a client's attitude is counterproductive, it is my ethical obligation to let her go. There are plenty of attorneys out there who will serve you the legal equivalent of an Egg McMuffin. I'm not one of them, and I'm proud of that.
