I wish I could give him no star at all

Made my divorce a nightmare, drained every pennies out of me and not even divorced yet. No advice from him or direction whatsoever, not like I have gone through a divorce before! Any email no matter how short, $50, phone call $70. Gave me bad advice and always tried to go to court to make more money.... Went through the $2,500 retainer in a couple of weeks with nothing accomplished. Ended up paying more APL to the wife that she was asking for because of his insistance not to settle (never suggested to counter directly with the opposite lawyer). He is very cocky and act like he is on your side, he is more like on the side of his billable hours . I ended up firing him as my divorce is not even started. Stay Away!

# 1 Lawyer in Delco - Frank is a great lawyer and cares about his clinets well being

Frank is a great lawyer when dealing with a divorce and custody. I would give him 10 stars out of 5 if I could. Frank and his office were very competent with the laws and compassionate at the same time. As a client, I expected high standards and Frank provided outstanding service. I rate him the # 1 ... lawyer in Delaware County PA. I would recommend this man without any hesitation. Thank you and God Bless!

Best divorce Attorney in Delaware County - Hands Down!

Frank and his staff have been an absolute godsend during a most difficult time. Frank's preparation has been meticulous, and his knowledge of the law is absolutely incredible. He tells you what he is going to do, and then he goes and does it. I had done extensive research for a divorce attorney be...fore I hired Frank, and found his reputation and performance to be outstanding. He is the most respected attorney in his field in Delaware County. I would highly recommend Frank to anyone!

Less than 1 star

Absolutely terrible. Stretched my divorce over 5 years while he racked up attorney fees. Hired another attorneys office in media who got it done in a week! Raffaele and Puppio's office was fantastic! Don't waste 1 dime on this guy. Had other people who used Frank and had the same results!!!!... Just a horrible experience all around!

When it comes to a divorce Frank's the man!

Take this from experience. I am currently going through a divorce for almost 3 years now and Frank Urso is the very very best and my case isn't even over with yet. I have been through several lawyers both in Philadelphia and Media and I have one thing to say about most and that is that when the mon...ey gets short so do the services. No compassion, no information and no outcome. Divorce lawyers are thieves is what i have found, take your money, do nothing except drag things out forever and keep collecting people's life savings. More so them knowing all along that at this stage of the game between grief of the divorce itself, and desperation, they seem to pray on only what you have monetary, sell you hope and when you run out of money they move on to the next sucker. Leaving you loosing everything you have, along with your insanity, yet taking people's vulnerability for weakness and leaving them empty and alone. No better off then the day when you walk in there. It is the truth "the only one that wins are the lawyers " in divorces.. Frank Urso is a rare breed, he fights for what is right and it's not all about the money. Frank is probably one of the most respected divorce attorney's in Media and served as a "Master" for several years. Maybe that is what makes him human because he sat on the bench and I am sure has saw it all. He cares and that is what makes all the difference in the world. "Thank God" their is someone out there that treats you with concern and isn't all about the money!! He's the best!! His associate attorney Anna teats you just the same, not only to speak about his great team of para-legals he has in place. That all says something about the man and his character!! Hats off to you Frank!
