Save your money.....

Took our money but we handled the case on our own....the consultation money was to be put towards our retainer but it wasn't, so there is a few extra bucks in his pocket. Very late for 1st court date, a no show for the next one, the court mediator (who was an attorney) did more for us than Ty did. ...Does not have time to fit in any more clients but he keeps on adding them, keep your money in your pocket or find a different attorney if you are in family court!!!

Sherri... First I'd like to thank you for the review. We always want feedback in order to make our service better, even if it's critical of our work. If I could change one thing about my profession, it would be being able to be prompt at every hearing. if I am running late, I do let everyone know. Unfortunately, when dealing with very emotional issues, I sometimes have to take a few extra minutes to comfort a client or explain a situation so that they understand. Rest assured, I would never deliberately waste anyone's time. Often times attorneys are not present at mediation. It's an opportunity for parties to work on a situation themselves, that's why the mediator is present. My goal is complete availability to my clients. I answer their concerns evenings, weekends, and even holidays. Finally, I always try to perform more work than the compensation I receive. Only then can I feel I've done the best job I can at the fairest price. After this review, I assure you I will continue to evaluate our procedures and see how we can improve.

Not so hot

This guy seemed to not have things running smoothly in his office. I paid for a bankruptcy and it only got filed after calling tens of times over and over again. I didn't get responses to my questions and the secetary always seemed to give me an attitude. His assistant was late to my court date. ...This is an embarraseement.

Ty Mahaffey is the worst attorney in TOLEDO doesn't call clients back!

This guy is the worst. Super nice until he gets your money. Then he doesn't show up for court and don't ever expect him to call you back, he never will. Took 4 months to file my bankruptcy in the meantime I got granished.
