Posted by Kathleen | June 02, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Mr. Bartholomew should never be retained for any kind of legal service, including "free" consultations.

In a child custody case, he did not even know that he was supposed to be in court the very day of court. No continuance was ever requested, and a very flippant, inappropriate text was sent to opposing council regarding how funny it was that he missed court, but he was going on paternity leave so he ...didn't care when a new court date might be. The judge immediately issued a motion that the 6 year old child should be picked up by her father. He stopped our car on the side of the road and took the child, before we even knew there was a hearing, a motion, or any verdict. Most clerks in Louisburg are well acquainted with his inability to file timely motions, if he files them at all and his grasp of the legal profession is dubious, at best.

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.
