Don't waste your money. Run, don't walk away from this attorney.

I hired Mr Deciantis for child custody and child support case. He dragged his feet with my case for approximately 2 years. He sold himself well during the free consultation but then proceeded to do very little for me over the next two years. He never answered phone calls, so I would have to schedul...e time to meet with him (and pay for that time of course) when my questions could have been answered by a simple return call. Do yourself a favor and find a competent attorney!
