SOME OF YOU REVIEWERS ARE NOT BEING HONEST

Mr. Hobson went to battle for me and my son. I was forthright and followed his instructions and I now have custody and receive child support. Some of you with 1 star reviews are possibly leaving key details out. My situation was a very difficult one, which spanned multiple states and jurisdictions.... My divorce lawyer, whom I shall not name, wanted me to pay 30K to attempt to get child custody and pretty much told me I had no chance. Mr. Hobson made it happen.

Waste of money, inept

I hired Mr. Hobson, his wife (attorney), and his staff for contempt of visitation & reduction of child support. The staff constantly forgets stuff, misplaces documentation, asks you to upload the same documents you've already uploaded, asks you the same questions repeatedly, & never returns calls as ...promised. I submitted great evidence of ex-wife's income, new business, & he never used the info I provided to reduce my child support other than reduction b/c of daycare not needed anymore. My child support was barely reduced. The worst is that I paid close to 7k and they still wanted more money without legitimately showing how it was spent. The invoices prepared by his wife was very sketchy and showed no detail to what calls were for other than listed as "call", all paperwork showed to be prepared was listed vaguely and seemed to be listed just to use up money. I didn't like that and know I'd list an itemized list when spending someone's money. The whole process didn't seat well in my spirit. I do understand that lawyers cost money, but you have to be professional, accurate, & be a good steward of your client's funds. Especially showing how you spent it.

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.
