Well to be specific I hired this lawyer to appeal custody arrangements, passport issuance for a 2 yr old for a women who is from another country but a citizen here and lives a nomadic lifestyle, and a support order...well our first hearing i was told not to show up for court...we all know how that turns out! Then for second hearing she's showed up late, very very unorganized and never said a word for a 5 hr court hearing and didn't have a calculator or spread sheet for support and I was ordered arrears and was never late or behind in payments and the last arrears was never added to the new arrears.. and when asked she had no explanation nor did she question the calculations! Then she doubled up on cost to top it all off. If you actually want something accomplished and get your side heard.. This is definitely NOT the suggestion I would offer. Has to be better counsel out there.

Response from Rose PalmerNovember 28, 2018
This review just recently came to my attention. Though I have a very different recall of case that was subject to the above review; I respect the reviewers right to his opinion. My firm strives to provide the best possible service and are open and honest with our clients as to the issues in their case that may or may not fair well in Court.
We cannot guarantee the result rendered by the Court is what the client desires; and, there are occasions when the Court will not consider some testimony that might result in a different result for the client. The Court's decision may be based on the age of the evidence, changes in the circumstances of parties, whether or not the evidence is directly related to the case before the court.
