Innapropriate behavior, legal misconduct

Vouga offered to take my case. I was then subjected to continued innapropriate advances by Vouga. He made legal decisions that were not in my best interest. Vouga violated my confidentiality, which resulted in me recieving hateful, abusive, and threatening messages. When I emailed Vouga regarding my ...concern, he threatened me.

Security

Victor Vouga is a fantastic lawyer. He worked with us a few years ago on a custody case for my daughter. My sister passed away and we sought to keep her daughter. We were unfairly being persued by other family. We had no recourse...no idea how to fight. From the first time we met Attorney Vouga......we felt for the first time security. Victor let my family and I know that the bullying we were experiencing would stop. He protected my very young family from years of abuse. We never had to linger and wonder what was going on. Victor kept us well informed of the process and guided us through it all. He was precise, deliberate, and decisive. We were able to successfully keep my daughter because of Victor. She is now 17 and graduating in 2021 from high school with high honors. We owe a debt of gratitude to Attorney Vouga for his intellectual acuteness and unfailing compassion.

Excuses

Let me begin by saying it took 8 months to get a proposed agreement for my divorce during this time there was no return of emails, text messages and phone calls. I then had an emergency custody petition at motions court which i found out the day of and had to go represent myself because he could not ...attend due to an appointment. He then tried to get me to agree to a nominal amount in settlement which i declined. Once my divorce was over there was an order for my QDRO draft to be completed within a couple of months and Attorney Vouga took 6-7 momths. If you looking for minimal to no communication, excuses, long delays and lots of attorney fees, Attorney Vouga is your man.

Victor world for his clients

I was able to obtain services for both divorce and custody, we were able to meet in a timely manner, late hours were also available if I needed them. Victor listened to what I wanted, gave suggestions and then acted, we worked together, he didn't just laugh it off and fought for me. This attorney has... a true sense of compassion for his clients. If there was something I was unsure of helped me understand. He fought to protect me and my child. He didn't cave when conunter offers were presented, he stood his ground and protected the interest of myself (his client). He helped me complete the proper forms that needed submitted and checked my work. Vic was very supportive during a difficult time. He stood beside me during hearings and always kept me informed, nothing was withheld. Very prompt in answering emails, phone calls or text. Worked with me to help reduce financial burden and we set up payment options. I will continue to retain Victor Vouga in he event his services are needed. I feel confident if a legal matter would arise, Vic would get results. Again, very please with the representation provided, I reccomend Victor
