No help in settlement negotiations

In the costliest negotiation meeting of my life, Matthew Martell made absolutely no effort to improve the terms of my divorce settlement. He made not a single counteroffer. Only because I spoke up for myself in the meeting did I get a reduction in alimony. This does not fit the ABA's mandate to act w...ith "zeal in advocacy upon the client's behalf." After the meeting, he wanted me to give him a 5-rating. He raised his rates twice (over 14%) in less than nine months. But his bills had impressive details. Definitely would not hire.

The comments in this review are neither fair nor accurate, but my response is constrained by legal and ethical obligations. Specifically, I cannot reveal confidential information regarding what happened at this mediation under the Florida Statutes pertaining to mediation confidentiality. Also, I cannot reveal what actually happened during the above-referenced legal representation without my client’s consent. As a lawyer, I am constrained by the Rules Regulating the Florida Bar in responding in detail, but I will simply state that it is my belief that these comments pertaining to this mediation present neither a fair nor accurate picture of what occurred, and I believe that the comments are false. In conclusion, Mr. Marovich, I'm sorry that you were unhappy with my legal representation in your divorce. Please feel free to contact me directly on my cell phone to discuss this matter further so we can attempt to resolve this dispute. Thank you!
