Joseph M Corey Jr.

This attorney is a joke. This attorney doesn't keep you informed about anything. You end up having to call him and you get a PMSing secretary that has a bad attitude. Then he charges you for talking to that twat as if it were him. He gives bs answers and couldn't even get the financials from my ex wi...fe. He didn't solve not even one aspect of my case and always had his hand out for more money telling a sad story about how it's gonna cost more and he doesn't work for free. I never expected him to work for free but if your paying thousands of dollars you should get some results. After further review of the bill I had seen he had charged me 20 mins to send a fax at $250 hr. He never knew anything about my case. After doing nothing he told me he was going to need double the amount for the retainer to in my opinion accomplish more nothing. He charged me 30mins to read a email and to "establish email account". The email literally read "this is my email address". My divorce had no assets to divide. We never even got to the part of visitation with my daughter.

He and his associates in his office located in Hialeah, Florida, failed to keep me informed. The Attorney does not want to talk to the customers and seems that don't like to answer questions. They don't call you to provide you updates of your case and you have to go in person to receive answers. The ...assistants don't know about your case and if one of them is absent they don't know nothing and you have to go in person everyday. It doesn't matter that you pay the fees and comply with the documents. They will not file your case and will not keep you informed about your case even if the hearing is in 24 hours.

I worked with Mr. Corey for my divorce. But after seeing that his secretaries attitude fluctuated daily I got fed up and decided to leave the firm. I was never kept up to date unless I called, and then was told it was not their fault but the other parties for not informing them of court dates, etc. I... was clear on what I wanted and instead they asked for what they thought I wanted. I am contemplating going to the Broward Bar to report my case and get my retainer back. As I read the paperwork it was messy and not done with my permission. I finally left and was given my file. Now looking for another attorney who can help me.
