Divorce

Worse lawyer don't not use ,will lie that we going to win your case and there is no problem . He did even give good advice . He even said during mediation that your where do one that choose that woman ! You don't say that your client. Also they didn't do my pension right and asked the to help wi...th it ,they told me that you do it yourself .

Don't do it!!

The most unprofessional attorney to work with. Let me start off by saying I was insulted by him on numerous occasions, which I shrugged off because I was convinced that he would be the person to help me get everything I want in my custody case. He started off strong and extremely convincing but by th...e second time meeting with him I was being advised to give into certain things that I am not willing to compromise. His attitude changed from a strong hardworking attorney who I can trust to someone who's already been paid and does not care about what happens ragardless of what I wanted. He was never personally reachable, I was always in contact with one of the many assistants he has. During our phone conversations I was always put on hold where I can hear full conversations not regarding my case. While in office I was constantly interrupted by other phone calls which were put on speaker so that my mother and I can hear someone else's case info. This made me uncomfortable because this meant that other clients were able to hear my phone calls and know all about my case. No one ever knew what my case was about while on the phone with me, admitting that they did not currently have my file opened, so I was constantly having to remind them who I was and what my case was about. Never felt like anyone cared enough about my case to fully understand what I needed. I finally terminated his services when ALL of my personal information was sent to the opposing party. Paperwork with mine and my daughters social security numbers, my bank and credit card statements, my w2's and my tax information via email. With all personal numbers viewable. When I voiced my concern I was told that I should have known that they would share that information and that the ipposing party was entitled to that information INCLUDING all personal numbers of mine such as my social, bank account number, credit card number etc. I'm appalled at the lack of professionalism and organizations this office has. I would ONLY recommend this attorney to my worst enemy. Your retainer will not be refundable. I WOULD NOT EVEN GIVE ONE STAR IF I DIDNT HAVE TO.

WORST ATTORNEY EVER

I HAVE USED THIS ATTORNEY. HE DOES NOT KNOW YOUR CASE AT ALL, THEREFORE, WHEN YOU GO TO COURT, HE CANNOT DEFEND YOU. HE DOUBLE BILLS YOU FOR TIME AND BILLS YOU FOR TIME YOU WEREN'T EVEN IN HIS OFFICE. . HE LACKS ETHICS AND HAS COMMUNICATION PROBLEMS. HE DOES NOT PROPERLY ADVISE YOU AND DOES NOT P...REPARE YOU FOR DEPOSITION, TRIAL OR MEDIATION. HE ALSO DOES NOT THE RULES OF LAW. YOU WILL GO BROKE.. HE CONSTANTLY HANGS UP ON YOU WHEN YOU QUESTION HIM ABOUT SOMETHING HE DOES NOT WANT TO ANSWER.. HE DRAGS HIS PARA LEGAL ALONG WITH HIM TO COURT AND ALL MEETINGS. SO THEREFORE, YOU ARE BEING CHARGED DOUBLE.. HIS PARA LEGAL IS RUDE, AND HIS STAFF KNOWS LESS THAN HE DOES. HE ALSO CONSTANTLY WITHDRAWS FROM YOUR CASE THE MINUTE YOU QUESTION HIS AUTHORITY. HE IS A DISGRACE TO HIS PROFESSION.

Lack of character no communication. Don't waist your money.

Knowledge? Maybe. But he has NEVER called me back when I've left messages. And when I have finally reached him, he put me on hold and transfeerred me to the secretary. The secretary (Iris) is worthless. She never returns my calls either. All the 'communication' I get from them are bills. They canc...elled the last hearing without even contacting me. I found out because I called them. They also scheduled mediation without my knowledge which I cancelled as soon as I found out (by calling them of course, cause they never call). All the 'communication' I get from them are bills. This was only a simple child support case and I've been waiting for 4 months for them to file a court hearing!! I've had 4 attorneys before, for child support, and have never experience such bad service. Dont waste your money.
