Did absolutely nothing

His firm does not care about your case at all, only your money. He would only accept cash as payment. My divorce still hasn't been resolved and it has been 5 years now. At 1st we pursued an uncontested divorce and paid the $900 for that back in 2013. However, due to no child support clause being in t...he papers, it was not able to be filed. Also, the divorce papers that were drawn up for us had dates all wrong and was filled with grammatical errors. After a year we tried to pursue a contested divorce to where I was told a court order was sent and delivered to him in the county that he lived in. I already receive child support from my ex and the divorce case still isn't resolved. I have multiple times and are told each time that they are trying to locate my paperwork. I went to the Chancery court myself and it was never even filed with them in 2013, and also a court order was never sent to my ex at all within the past 5 years. I have paid a total of $3700 and absolutely nothing has been done. I am now going in a different route to get my money back for services not rendered.

Where Do I Begin

I hired him. I paid him in full. I did not get the service I paid for at all. I would not recommend him unless you sign a contract with a price list. He did not communicate with me about my case. Everything was always a surprise because he never kept in touch, so it was like a whirlwind having him as... my lawyer. He never provided me updates. He never gave me a financial sheet explaining why he charged me over $2000 for my divorce, even though I request it from him repeatedly. And worst of all, he took so long to work on my case, only to get to court and the judge did not grant my divorce because Hosford was not prepared, according to the judge. So please research your lawyer, ask for prices to compare. I overpaid too much, and Hosford did not get my divorce for me. Having him as my lawyer has been more stressful than trying to divorce, because he never kept in touch with me. It really made me feel he just took my money and wanted me to just go away. I am still suffering financially and emotionally from my experience with him.
