A con artist

Worse of the worse, a con artist that will deceive women through the women abuse center the he runs. Most of the time will not answer your phone if you are no more useful to get money…

Divorce

Hands down the best divorce attorney. I cannot believe it has been a year since my divorce. He is knowledgeable, honest, friendly, funny and most of all Mitch and Abby did not treat me like I was another client. It was like family. I could call email or text if I had any questions and I still do to t...his day. Divorce is not easy but I can’t say thank you enough to Mitch and Abby. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is going through a divorce.

3 years

Its been 3 years now that ive paid a 2500 retainer to have my child support case fixed my back childsuport fixed and also my current. Im disabled my check is around 1400 dhs is taking 800 from me leaving me with 524 a month and this has been like this for over 5 years . I cant get a call email nothin...g back from him and child support inforcement dont care and will not do anything toll a judge makes them. I would highly advise you not to hire him he ignores my calls messages and even text messages and ill call from a different number he will answer and come up with a reason to have to call me back and never hear from him. And i live four hours away so i cant just go to his office i cant afford to just drive up there and he knows it so he just stole my momey in my eyes

sleeping with the enemy

This man pushed me under the bus. Not only did he insist I not make my appointed dates in court, he failed to perform any of the suport I needed in my case to keep me out of a huge counter lawsuit after I was victimized by a pro bono attorney.This lack of action and accountability put me in finacial ...stress, mental anquish and caused me severe hardships. He never returned my calls and avoided me after losing my case that the DA said was so simple even a child could win it.
