Posted by Darrell | September 16, 2015 | Child Custody

Little Results

I hired this lawyer for a child custody case. My situation is such: Tried to get my mother on court order so that she could see her grandchild without my presence. Fireison gave me a bunch of hot air and BS about how that wasn't a good idea and that the court system frowns upon such request. Well, ...the other attorney did not have the same feeling as was able to get IN-LAWS on my court order. There are some other things with his character, such as shady billing practices, that I won't get into. Hiring this guy was hands down the worst mistake of my life. I also don't feel that he represented me well in the actual court proceedings, again, very passive.

Replied last September 16, 2015

Client failed to give full name. Client failed to understand that grandparents have no statutory right to visitation. I have never received a complaint about billing or services rendered. It is apparent that client never communicated any problem to attorney and may have been disappointed with the fact that IN-LAWS have no standing in court proceedings since they are not a party to the action.
