Non-responsive and let my case slip through the cracks

I was referred to McKinney, Tucker and Lemel for a Family Law issue from another attorney. I was eventually passed off to Mr. Martin whom appeared to be a new associate at the time, but assured me Jim Tucker the Firm's Partner would oversee my case as well. I told him it was very critical to act sw...iftly on my case because it involved settlement money and a non-custodial parent that had left the country. Mr. Martin assured me he had the time to handle the case immediately and I took faith in that. I spent the next several months helplessly calling and emailing Mr. Martin who continued to ignore my phone calls. Eventually, Mr. Tucker, the Senior Partner, took over my case. $6000 later with multiple attorneys involved in other states, the case fell apart. I should have filed a Bar complaint against Mr. Martin, but hesitated because Mr. Tucker seemed to be trying to mend the disaster. It has been extremely unfortunate that my case was originally passed off to David W. Martin as my daughter lost out on a huge sum of back child support. I am only writing this review because it still bothers me to this day how poorly Mr. Martin treated us. If you are seeing this Mr. Martin, I hope you never ignore a client again and realize that when you take on case, that person is depending on you. To the client wanting to hire a Family Attorney that has your best outcome in mind, do not hire David W. Martin. He is not organized, nor is he equipped to handle a client honestly.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known Mr. Martin since 2011. I always knew Mr. Martin would be an excellent attorney because of how much he cares about his clients. Since he has been practicing, I have noticed very early on that he was extremely involved with his clients. If you want a family-law attorney who truly cares about your family, who is competent to handle all family-law work, and who is an effective lawyer, look no further than Mr. Martin. I fully endorse him."
