He got my children back

Fred is expensive and worth every penny. In 2018 I had a high conflict separation where I was afraid my soon to be ex would kidnap my three girls. I interviewed three lawyers. He had the moderate approach and explained it well. She did kidnap the kids but I smartly took Fred's advice, and we got t...hem back. I stuck with him through the whole divorce and we are all better off for it; me, the kids, even my ex is better off (although she hates Fred, as you might imagine).

Terrible

Fred is one of the most bloodsucking lawyers I have ever been represented by in my life. He actually referred to me as his residual income which ended up being almost 70k in work for a child custody case. He colluded with the lawyer we were going against by purposely not handing in a motion to comp...el into the courthouse( which is a block away from his office) but then gave the motion to compel to the opposing lawyer. So he gave his buddy the motion to compel, and then never handed it in through the courthouse to avoid getting his lawyer friend getting sanctions against him. He missed due dates for documents. He will try and back you into unwanted settlement, end then flip it on you saying you are being unreasonable. He will pass your work off to a less competent lawyer(which will still cost you 375$ hourly) but then will say he has to double check their work, costing you thousands in double payments. Spend your money elsewhere. He’s a terrible person and an even worse lawyer.

Knowledgeable and trustworthy.

Fred was always responsive and informative with all aspects of my cases. He was very knowledgeable and kept my best interests in mind. Very pleased with my experience using him. I will use him again in the future.

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.
