Waste of time and money.

Please don't not waste your time with this entire lawfirm. Absolute nightmare, over charged with nothing done, and to top it off they let people walk on them so they can extend and make more money. I pray no one else wastes there time, they put me out 7 months without even 1 motion to see my Son. I t...ried to resolve multiple times but was told I had to pay 500.00 to just have a explanation on the billing and what was done.

An absolute nightmare

Paul Panico is a brutally terrible lawyer who failed to secure a simple visitation agreement for me in FIVE YEARS. He never sent me even the most basic documentation regarding my case, and was insensitive enough to often cut our calls short because he had to "pick up (his) kids from hockey practice...." Hey, genius, you're supposedly representing me in a child-visitation dispute. Try to use a little sense. I'm absolutely shocked that other reviewers here claim to have had good experiences with him, and I highly suspect that sock-puppetry is afoot. If Paul is reading this right now, I know for a fact that he's looking up what that terms means. Stay away from this terrible and lazy lawyer or regret it forever. You've been warned.

John, Your review is not accurate nor is it fair. This office has not represented you in nearly four years. But to be clear, contrary to your review, you were very properly and competently represented. The reviewing website does not investigate; it just permits negative posts without looking into the actual facts. For instance, you know there absolutely was an order for parenting time in your case. Unfortunately, because Attorneys are limited in their ability to comment, we cannot reveal the facts which would undoubtedly refute this type of negative review. I am therefore not at liberty to respond as I would like to or as would be justified. Attorneys representing clients in domestic relations disputes are frequently blamed for outcomes which have nothing to do with the quality of representation, but instead are based on legal principles, personalities, and fact patterns created by the parties involved. Your attack on this office is unjustified. We had nothing to do with any decisions you made long after we were no longer involved in your case. Despite your negative review, we wish you well and hope you can find peace with the decisions you have made.
