Never use Wayne Clontz

Wayne Clontz does not communicate with you as his client, does not show up for child support court and his paralegal is the rudest, most unprofessional person I have ever dealt with.

Child custody

Wayne Clontz did an exceptional job with my case. I did pro-se work on my trial and had a legal aid advocate that quit at the last minute. So with a weeks time and the clock ticking Wayne came to my defense and did not make me pay him upfront before going to trial. I may not get full custody l...ike I want but I KNOW whos going to keep getting paid until he gets paid in full. He did a great job for me and it would only be the righy thing to do to pay him in full. Thanks Wayne.. Whether I win or not you gave it your all. Davida.

do NOT use this office!

I went in for a simple divorce and the office secretary's kept giving me the run around and telling me differently from what the lawyer told me! He was bad to not return calls. After 4-5 months my divorce is still not finalized in which he said it'd be done in 2 months at the most! I will NEVER use t...his attorney and I HIGHLY recommend that no one else does unless they're not in any hurry and they want to deal with unprofessionals.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I like working with Wayne Clontz. If Wayne has a fault, it's that he often undercharges his clients compared to most other attorneys. I think that means he has a good heart in wanting to help people, and particularly those who might not otherwise afford an attorney. This might lead to getting overextended, however. So if you're expecting a top notch aggressive lawyer out of the big city, well, Wayne may not be that, but for what you're likely paying you're certainly getting more than your money's worth in competent representation. I'd refer a client to him, and particularly one with stressed economic ability to pay."
