Couldn't have asked for better!

I hate to think of what our lives would be like without the legal counsel genius that is John Tucker. He handled our case with professionalism and class going above and beyond to help us understand the legal roadmap that we were on. My husband and I can not adequately express how highly we regard M...r. Tucker and will not hesitate to recommend him to others in the future!

Posted by anonymous | November 17, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Seemed very professional in the beginning

We hired Mr Tucker in November of 2021, he offered us a flat rate fee of $2500 , he filed paperwork and got us a court date December 2021. We attended court and got an emergency order signed , in January 2022 we asked him to file for termination of parental rights he asked for another $2500 . We paid... him and he never served the defendant never filed another paper , told us over and over he was serving the defendant by publication that never happened, said he filed asking the judge to sign off on service by publication, that never happened. Said he emailed the clerk for us a new court date that never happened.this drug on for over a year and no result. We asked for an itemized statement of his expenses he never sent one .claimed we used $5000 we gave him ! On what a few phone calls and a few filings? He then said he would need more money to go to juvenile court. We asked him to withdraw from the case , he didn't. We hired a new attorney and mr tucker kept every dime we gave him .we wasted a year of our time and lots of money to get the run around. Our new attorney is fixing this entire situation now. Be careful Mr Tucker comes off as professional then gets your money doesn't call you doesn't file what he says and uses the I was in court all day excuse for everything. Don't waste your time or money
