Carl L Griffin

I hired Carl Griffin on the recommendation. He provided me a consultation, which was rather generic yet accurate at that time. I hired him and paid him $4,000 for my divorce case. His communication with the other side was horrible, he just waits, while nothing happens. We went to Mediation, which... when we were presented with the first round offer, he got mad and stormed out. So much for trying to counter offer and mediate, which come to find out from my ex, she was willing, that first offer was just a starting point. Carl acted like a child at that point. As we were walking out I had many questions and he was too mad to answer them and he pretty much just left me standing in the parking lot. Many months went by and he did nothing to move my divorce case along, work with me to come up with an offer, or did anything. Finally, needing my divorce case handled, I communicated with my wife, did my own mediation, and came up with terms for the divorce, which my wife at the time took to her attorney and had drafted up. Carl simply had me sign the paperwork when they arrived at his office. What did Carl do for me for $4,000? He simply cashed my checks. One benefit was he took payments, however I am not at all satisfied with his work. I paid my ex wife more to just get it settled than he told me I would have been required to, yet he did nothing to help my case. Just find another attorney, there are many out there.

I first became a client of Mr. Griffin in 1998 as a result of an impending divorce. Carl provided guidance through the process and made it as bearable as possible. With the divorce came financial issues which resulted in a bankruptcy and child custody battle that lasted several years. In the inte...rim there have been several issues with the Department of Revenue because of my former wife but also incompetence of the part of the department. These issues were handled by Carl and his staff in a timely manner taking care of a lot of stress associated with the issues. With so many attorneys in Orlando I have remained loyal to Carl and his wonderful staff as they have to me. I highly recommend this firm.
