Office Personnel was ruide

I visited their website and there is an option that allows me to email the lawyer and I did. I called up to follow up on my email and talked to the receptionist and she took my information and informed that I would have to pay $500.00 for a consultation with Mr. Gay, I informed that I am living in N...orth Dakota and I would like to interview Mr. Gay before we talk about my case. She informed me that to interview on his background still would be $500.00 even if we do not discuss my case or why I am hiring him. His secretary calls me in 5 minutes and informs that I would have to be in their office to talk to the Mr. Gay that he does not do it over the phone.

Good morning to all of my past, present and future clients. First of all I care deeply for all of my clients and I truly enjoy being a Family Law attorney. I have spoken to reporters, taught numerous Family Law seminars and have been selected as one of the Top Ten Divorce Lawyers in Delaware by Delaware Today. If this "gentlemen" had done his research he would have had no need to interview me. He was very "RUDE" (not ruide) to my Female staff -- something I will never tolerate. I don't do "interviews" - this inevitably results in the sharing of some case related information and could pose ethical conflicts if the opposing party also called to retain me. My consult fee is $500.00 for up to two hours of my time. I am on "Find Law" If you wish to research me. I do telephone consults for people who need them and are civil to my staff.

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.
