Joseph M. Todd

I ought to report this joke to Georgia Bar Association, I was served on June 3 2019 to appear in court for a TPO hearing on June 12, 2019 so i needed a lawyer within 9 days if not i wouldn’t have hired this joke. After losing my TPO hearing i was served with a divorce papers so i retained him that w...as one of my very worst decisions ever!! I was giving a bi-weekend visitations,the first visitation was for Father’s Day and she didn’t bring my kids,Mr Todd told me to file a motion for contempt,he charged me $1000 for that,I thought it was a good suggestion until we got to court,this man was sleeping and snoring in the court,I have to wake him up twice in the court,the people were laughing in the court, that was when i first realized that i made a big mistake,after the hearing Mr Todd lost the case woefully and i was ordered to pay $2,400 attorney fee for the defense. He told me that before my divorce comes up we would need 3 weeks to get everything together,he didn’t request for any discovery, he didn’t ask for anything from my ex wife but sending me their own discovery requests. On January 23,2020 i received a call from Jillian advising me of my upcoming divorce on the 28th of January 2020, I was shocked i told her i thought you guys would prepare me ahead she gave me some bogus excuses so i implored her to see how she can make an excuse to the court and get another court day, I didn’t know that the opposing counsel had taken a leave of absence for that day so when i found out that the case had been rescheduled i took my time to find a REAL lawyer and fired the joke! I hired Bardley McKnight law firm and my case has taken a better form ever since, this man never cared about the safety of my kids he just wanted to turn me to his ATM and mess up my case and kids life,don’t judge him by my review go and see some other people’s reviews on google,he is by far the very worst!!!
