Posted by Randall | December 19, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Don't waste your time and money

This is a very unprofessional lawyer in regards to family law. He was totally intimidated by the opposing lawyer in my case. When I questioned the amount the opposing lawyer used for the calculation of child support and even provided a detailed spreadsheet of my income, this "lawyer" did not have t...he courage to insist where the other lawyer's numbers came from. He told me "that it won't make that much difference." The way I was treated was sickening. Once I wrote the checks to this "lawyer," the "representation" I received was horrible. Do not be fooled. You have been warned. Completely useless and easily intimated by opposing counsel.

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.
