Bad Divorce Lawyer Experience

I hired this lawyer to manage my divorce in 2018, which went nowhere for several months. I tried to speak with him several times about the process. I am giving two stars (instead of one) because I felt this attorney did make himself available to speak to me. However, I was not educated nor provided g...ood, clear information regarding my divorce options. Out of desperation I asked that something be filed with the courts after several months, which looking back, was unnecessary since all our assets were split and everything was uncontested between the two of us. After paying a lump fee, I had to fire him after several months. I have since found a new attorney who moved my case forward quickly, was professional, had real legal assistants, and was savvy using a computer to conduct business. I would recommend looking elsewhere for a divorce lawyer. In general, and due to this experience, I will not be paying a lawyer a flat fee ever again in the future.
