Posted by anonymous | September 20, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Begged him to file petition for temporary alimony and he never filed any petitions!

He sat on damning discovery, which he could have used to settle, evidence my wife was cheating when she filed petition for divorce. He never petitioned the court to hear temporary alimony petition, even though this was the specific task I hired him to do. Instead he asked for meaningless discovery an...d wasted my finite resources. When all my money was exhausted, he quit leaving me facing a motion for contempt having no representation. The first thing he will request is affidavit of your finances to determine how much money he can get from you, when the money is gone he will quit. Don't sign anything! His wife is his secretary. I wonder why?

If I had only known I would walk away with nothing

Very painful & nasty divorce. My adultrious spouse played very dirty. John was chummy with my spouse's attorney. He seemed more concerned with offending them and my spouse than representing me. I was financially in too deep with him before I saw the handwriting on the wall and had no money to star...t over. What a travesty. Please do not repeat my mistake

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.
