Looking For A Lawyer

Rob Turner's office is made up him and 4 junior lawyers. I hired his office for a Divorce back in April of 2012. It took the office til June 2012 to serve my wife. Now in all fairness she did not want to get divorced and she was the one cheating, so she would not expect the papers. They never kept me... informed on what was going on with the papers being sent outI didn't know. Every timed I called to see what was going on, I would be placed on hold, for a long time, then after waiting they said they would call me back tommorrow and they would not. Even when I made appointments they wouldn't have time for me. So when I finally got a Mediation date in March 2013, they sent me with a guy named Brad Frakes. Of course we could not settle in mediation. When I had to fill out my Income & Expense Statement this guy Brad told me to put my post 9/11 G.I. Bill money , even though it is for education, and the gross amount that I get from a rental unit, it should have been the net after I pay the mortagage and property manager. So when I went to a hearing on May17, 2013 hearing about lite support payment this guy Brad didn't say anything for my defense, he let her Lawyer paint me as an ***hole and I had to pay a "Good Faith Payment" of $500.00,until we could show that she was working, which was gonna be in 2 weeks. I had a P.I. 's report on her that she was working and was living with another man. He sent out subponea's for the boyfriend and my P.I. for the next hearing when I asked him not to. Long story short the judge did not call any of my witnesses and my wife quit her job when the boyfriend got the subponea and moved back home with her mom, and I got stuck with a lite support payment and her attorney's fee's, that I can't afford on top of my attorney's fee's. And no date for a trial. Then Brad leaves the office and they give me a lawyer that has four years experience none of it with Divorces. At that point I hired a new lawyer, because I got tired of my lawyer working against me. In my opinion if you are a man and you are going through a divorce and don't get Rob Turner himself DON'T go to his office for a Divorce. Shop around pay the money for a GOOD Lawyer, in the end you'll be better off. Don't get Brad Frakes he SUCKS and he will not listen to you! My point is this office is a business and they didn't seam to care about me, and my situation.
