A satisfied client!

Kevin represented us In a modification. We live 3 hours away and found him on legal match. We had read some of the reviews but dont always believe what is posted on the internet especially as there are many different personalities and sometimes you cant make everyone happy. We met with him and felt c...omfortable with him. He handled our issue and was very professional with us. I am sure we will be using him again. Thanks again Kevin for the great work you did in court. We were very impressed with him in the court room. Brazoria county is very slow moving with there court cases so now that we know how they work we will stick with him as our attorney.

Read other reviews and didn't believe until in happened to me.

Hired Kevin Prendergast to modify child support. Met him downtown and gave him a retainer of $ 2500. Later that day i told him to put it on a different credit card. He said he had already run the card. He said he would run my new card and credit back my old. He ran my new card but never credited back... the other one. At the first meeting he said he would file by that Friday. Over the next two week i kept trying to contact him to find out the status of my case as well as get my money credited back. He would not return calls or answer emails. After 2 weeks my ex served me with papers instead. He had never filed. on my behalf. After that i sent him an email telling him i no longer wanted him as a lawyer. He didn;t respond until the next day telling me he had answer her filing and that he didn't think we should work together anymore. I have requested several times a copy of our contract, a statement of the work done and a refund of remaining funds. He has not responded. I am in the process of filing a complaint with the state bar.This whole experience has been a nightmare. How many people have to go through the same experience until the state takes his license away?

Thank you for your help

Mr. Prendergast was very helpful and considerate. We had a difficult custody case involving our grandchildren and he knew exactly what to do.

horrible

does not return calls, mailbox is always full cannot even leave a message, if your lucky he will show up for your court date and you might have a few minutes for him to fill in the blanks of your unprepared divorce decree. Pension, property, spousal support etc. that were awarded to me were not worde...d correctly in the decree(pension was suppose to have a QDRO filed and it wasn't done) so it can't be enforced it's all meaningless....my decree was reviewed by another attorney and I was told it was poorly done UGH!!!!WHAT A WASTE!!
