Contemp of court

Very disappointed in everything, never got back to me about the paperwork I needed to file in court. He told me months ago he was going to send them but never did. Now my credit cards bills have been reported to an agency due too what my ex wife was supposed to be paying. I tried calling him it was a... problem also email him that was also a problem 0/10 I do not recommend him at all. Still to this day still haven’t heard from him.

Theif!

I give this lawyer 2,000 to start my divorce. Already was having a hard time reaching him and getting him to respond. The pandemic hit and he took my money! Never filed my divorce. Screwed me out of alimony and a divorce and he just straight up took my money. I asked him to return my money and I hav...en't heard nothing from him. Straight up theif!!

I would not recommend him to my worse enemy.

He was my divorce lawyer and he didn't ask for anything I told him to. I could never get a hold of him unless it was time for him to get more money and then he would call me, but would only get the money and would cut me off when I asked anything about my case. He was never in his office and it's bee...n 5 years now and I still haven't been able to get a hold of him so I could come get my file which I have pictures I need back bad. Overall he's not worth the money.

First Class Attorney! Look no further for the best the legal field has to offer.

I hold Mr. Sawyer in the highest regards as I have done business with him on a number of very complicated cases since the 90's. He first helped me in making sure that my divorce was finalized as quickly as possible, and that all of my concerns were met in the decree. This pertained to my first ch...ild and visitation schedules, as well as equitable division of financial assets. He made sure that it was a fair and satisfactory end to a bad marriage. He has, since that time been my first point of contact ,in numerous areas of legal resolution. Kim Sawyer is a man of golden character. II consider him to be a very caring and professional attorney, like no other. He can make sense out of a web of problems, untangling even the most discouraging scenarios. At present, he has been working with me resolution of a very serious legal battle. He literally has saved my life, and made sure that my children and I continue to be fully represented by his shield of legal protection . Having Kim Sawyer on your side is like having your own personal guardian Angel, and that is no exaggeration of the truth. Face it...life is tough for all of us...things come up. Good things happen to good people. ..if you want the best, then I only suggest Horace K. Sawyer, III. The reviewers who complain about paying must remember, you get what you pay for. Nothing is free in life, it takes an enormous amount of intense mental effort and tedious paperwork to sort out these legal issues. I endorse Mr. Sawyer's practice of law as first class...and the reason is again, he gave me another chance at life by putting my legal worries behind me.

Custody, Divorce and criminal defense

I live in Ringgold and located Mr sawyer through my legal insurance. Going through a divorce at the time and numerous financial issues he listened, cared and understood my issues. He took great care of my divorce, only for me to need him again for a frivolous criminal accusation in which he once agai...n settled quickly and out of court. As of yesterday (7/7/13) I had to once again hire Mr. Sawyer to assist in a child custody issue and though I will not discuss how he has helped in detail, rest assured that this man will GO OUT OF HIS WAY AND OVER THE TOP to help you. I am forever grateful to have him as my attorney and will forever be indebted to his grace and compassion. A client for life, I will never use another attorney so long as Mr. Sawyer is practicing. I have been represented 3 times thus far and do not have one negative thing to say. This man has the greatest ethics and compassion of any attorney in which I have encountered, all lawyers should take a lesson. Thank you Mr. Sawyer - M. Green
