If I could give him zero stars I would!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do not waste your money on this man. He does not respond to calls or emails for WEEKS, and is rude when you’re finally able to get ahold of him. You’ll feel like you’re holding his hand the entire time to get him to do his OWN job. His excuse is that he needs patience because of his own personal is...sues. He was hired 2 years ago to work on this divorce and it is still not final even though all paperwork is done and has been done!! He blames his clients for HIS slow work!!!

This comment is misleading. Unfortunately it's difficult to represent people who do not take the advice of their legal counsel and even more difficult when they do not obey court orders. It's important to always keep your attorney informed. I am one of the only attorneys that actually gives their cell phone number to their clients. I am probably the easiest attorney to reach. And as they say, "no good deed goes unpunished" I attempted to try to not charge this particular client as I was sensitive to their financial situation. Moreover attorneys cannot make opposing counsel agree to terms and when I explained that unfortunately I was going to have to send a bill to this client, this review was posted.

Poor service

Not worth the money. Always making excuse why he couldn’t get something done. Hired him for a divorce and couldn’t get him to work on my case because he was putting out “fires” in other case is what I was told. Then told me my retainer was almost gone cause I was calling to check on the status after ...he didn’t keep to the timeframes he gave me. Parted ways with him and got my divorce done in 3 months after waiting on him for 8 months.

This is not true. We live in a day and age where people, even when you've never represented them, can post negative things about people on he internet without signing their names. It can be anyone who has a problem with you or your family. It can be a person who you beat in court, wining your client custody, as I suspect this one particular review is related to, based on the timing. It's impossible to run a retainer out by just calling and checking on the status of a case. Feel free to ask any attorney if that's possible.
