Great guy, lackadaisical lawyer

During a very bizarre custody disagreement I hired Mitch. He made me feel secure in my case and confidant that I was doing the right thing. As time got nearer to the case he became lax in communication and even nonchalant when I was concerned we were not being "zealous" enough. I basically put myself... in a heap of debt to pay Mitch and didn't even stand a chance in court. My advice: find a lawyer who is passionate about you and your case, not your checkbook.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
