Pay him now or later...

I got one of those advertised divorces that initially was going to cost me $500 and turned out to cost me $2500 in 2012. We had been separated for 7 years. I was in a bad state. I signed an agreement, drafted and reviewed by a 'cheap' attorney and today I am paying $11,500 in alimony and child su...pport for 20 years. I was referred to Cary King. One look at the settlement agreement and he told me that in his 30+ years of Family Law practice, he had never seen a settlement agreement so one-sided, atrocious, unfavorable and not doable (based on my income then and now). My income then, nor my income today, justifies the unreasonable alimony I signed up for. If you are seeking a divorce attorney, trust me.. Have Cary King on your side. His thorough knowledge of Fanily Practice Law is undeniable and you will experience his tenacity for Justice and Fairness as it pertains to your particular case during the initial consult. I am paying him today and I wish had sought him out when I was going through my tribulations that led to my divorce and insane settlement agreement.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
