Peter L. Rand

Back in 2016, I hired Peter Rand to represent me for my divorce. I had gotten his information online, went for a consult, he was very professional courteous. I did not know that it would end there. After my retainer was paid, I never got any updates about my divorce proceedings. There was also a cour...t date that was missed. I emailed and called the office several times to get an update on what to do next. I also asked for an itemized bill to understand how my retainer was being used. Every time I called, the front desk would make an excuse and say he was not there and would call me back. This went on for months and he never called me back. I then had to hire another lawyer and pay another retainer fee. I never got my money back from Peter Rand nor did he ever respond to any of my inquiries. He ran away with my money.

Hired Peter as my attorney after I was served my divorce papers. I had just finished 2 years with a free attorney in family court with the soon to be ex husband. The free lawyer worked harder for me than Peter did, and that’s not saying much. To keep this review short and too the point, Mr. Rand does...n’t keep promises. I told him exactly what I wanted before we paid him the retainer and he agreed to everything. As we got closer to the end he changed his tune. Every court appearance resulted in ill prepared lawyers who were suppose to be working on going back and forth in hopes to come up with an agreement to avoid a trial. Instead of this happening and because It was difficult reaching him or getting a response from him in between court dates, every court date we showed up at resulted in being given another date to come back since no one was communicating and attempting to make an agreement between the court dates. On the final court date we ended up Finally for the first time I believe making the 1st attempt at an agreement and so the back and forth finally begun. This was all to avoid the trial set for that afternoon while I sat there for hours crying because the whole experience was wearing me down. if we went trial I was told I would have to pay another $10.000 retainer fee. In the end my husband and his lawyer left laughing with smiles on there face, and weeks later Im still trying to forgive myself for hiring this guy.

Do not use this man at all ever!!!! Do your research! He's got MANY complaints flied against him!!!! He has my divorce papers since May 28,2019 and for 4 months all I do Is text, call and leave messages BEGGING him for MY papers back so I can go elsewhere, he REFUSES to answer me and give me my paper...s back!!!! Absolute worst attorney out there!!!! Save yourself the heartache, stress and money and find another attorney!!! Look him up on find law...you'll be in shock what you see!

My divorce case has been in litigation for one year and I have not seen one email ever sent to my ex to be attorney concerning my case and any sort of settlement . Has told me numerous lies and when asked to do something he will tell you you will do it and then blow you off and you will have to cal...l him 10 times before he finally called you back . Typical lawyer .If you are hiring him for a divorce do not do it you’ll fight with him more than you are ask if you are hiring him for a divorce do not do it you’ll fight with him more than your spouse.

A friend at work recommended Peter Rand law firm to me. To help me get through a nasty divorce. I can not say enough about Peter and his law firm. Peter was fair, professional and truly looked out for my best interest. He made me feel like i had a family member representing me. And in the end i was m...ore then pleased with the results of my divorce. Peter made sure i had a voice and i was treated fairly. Thank You Pete.
