Paul Stephen Walier

Would not ever think of hiring again. I believe they were nice enough people but for the money I paid upfront (that they kept and months later have not sent me an invoice). Seldom won any disagreements with my ex. I’m my opinion way to easy and the other lawyer seemed to me at least in my opinion to ...be friends. In my opinion terrible from the start at least in terms of winning anything for you

If you want to spend thousands of dollars on a coke head as lawyer he’s your guy! Will drain you and threaten to drop your case! Was only suppose to take 600 out of my bank account and took 1k without permission! Ended up paying over 11k to this joke! Glad I was able to help with your addiction scumb...ag!

I hired him to do a bankruptcy. Over the phone the charge was $750. By the time we ended the appointment he jacked it up another $350 for other charges he "forgot" to tell me about on the phone when I clearly asked him if this was the complete cost. Then after I sent all my paperwork, he proceeded to... tell me that it would be another $10 for every creditor over 10. He forgot that part as well. I refused. The kicker is this: when you file for bankruptcy you have to do a Pre-Counsel and Post-Counsel to receive a VERY important certificate. I did the pre-counsel and the company had no problem sending Mr. Walier the confirmation. Afterwards, I again completed the post-counsel and received my certificate. Again, figured the company sent the post-counsel verification and certificate to him. Bankruptcy done right? Nooooo. I received a letter from the court saying it would not be discharged since they didn't receive the certificate. I immediately called my "Attorney" and he informed me with a chuckle "oh, yeah, this happens to my customers a lot" Did you catch that? "my customers"...."It will be $220 to re-open the file and $350 for my services....." I said thanks but no thanks I'll do it myself and hung up. This is clearly a financial scam he runs. I called the courts - I was sent a letter, which I did not receive or see but found out Mr. Walier received an electronic notice that they did not receive the certificate and he NEVER notified me. With regards to ethics and due diligence at most, and courtesy at the least, he should have followed up with me. He is an unethical attorney and a financial fraud artist. He should be disbarred. DO NOT RETAIN HIM!!!!
