Dont waste your money

The lawyer is very unprofessional. Would not listen to my concerns on my case. The lawyer is very unorganized and untimely. He proceeds to do work without the consent of client. Very arrogant when it comes to communicating with client matters. This lawyer does not have the best interest of clients a...nd i would highly recommend to look for other options in a legal represantation. Please look for another lawyer

Not a great experience: Made me believe all the jokes about Lawyers

I was asked for money two more times throughout the entire case. My husband and I did not receive our court appearance letters or information which resulted in us not being notified of court and occasionally having the other party tell us. This caused us to lose our case. He never gave any advice and... gave incorrect information and did not take the time to know the ins and outs. After this experience I am not a fan of dependency court, it's laws or attorneys. We could rarely get a call back and if we did it was only to say everything will be okay. They did not respond to emails and could not receive faxes from the other attorney or parties involved( which contributed to us remaining uniformed). We would get to court and hear crazy nonsense and we were always unprepared. He did seem very knowledgeable about the law and he could be a good lawyer, just not for a losing case.
