Lance Darryl Simon

I did not shop around for divorce lawyers, went to Lance upon a referral and hired him at the spot. He agreed to a reduced retainer fee given my difficult situation. I hired Lance to represent me against a narcissistic wife who shot a silver bullet. I was kicked out of my home and lived on the street...s for 2 months while Lance was my attorney, though he did not have me sign a retainer to represent me in the Family Offense case and wasn't present at the court when my life was terminated by the VIBS loving IDV Judge. Lance showed great passion in 3 months he served as my attorney but things got a lot worse during this time. We got absurd decisions on our Pendente Lite motion seeking custody and maintenance. Judge imputed me $75K income, I never worked, all throughout the marriage I stayed home and exclusively stayed home as a homemaker for the last 10 years. All we got from the Pendente Lite motion was Lance's fees. I could have written a 2 sentence motion myself and gotten the same result. I had no choice but part ways with him. He has too many cases to handle and he works alone. My case is very complex and I am only interested in the custody of my children, which we lost from the get go, via the silver bullet conceded.

I hired Lance based on the great reviews he had. I also liked what he had said to me, about my upcoming divorce trial. I found him to be a nice guy. Unfortunately our case was in front of Judge Iliou who would not listen to Lance as I witnessed. Judge Iliou had decided this case way before my atto...rney or myself had any chance of receiving a fair settlement. I witnessed Judge Iliou stating to my lawyer that his argument were ridiculous and saw Judge Iliou get up and walk out of the courtroom while my attorney was still speaking. Judge Iliou would favor the opposing attorney Irene Angelakis. The outcome of my case would be very unfair, leaving me with no health insurance, no spousal support, our 6 children receiving no educational help, no medical reimbursement for the last 10 years (documents were lost), no money from his annuity. I would receive a share of our home and a small portion of the pension which I will have to carry ins. on. I would not be reimbursed for the three trials this man has brought against me. I'm not sure if it was my lawyers fault I did so poorly or the lousy judge we had. But one thing that still eats away at me is when the opposing attorney Irene Angelakis stated to my lawyer that I threatened to blow up a building where another attorney was located. I couldn't believe it then and I still can't fathom that someone in her profession would be so vicious and a complete liar. It bothers me to this day that my attorney would not follow thru with what he said he would do. I would file a complaint and there solution is to hire an attorney.
