Drew Joseph Mihalik

Drew was hired for a simple divorce that he refused to return phone calls and if he did it always come across as a private number. he is not okay was somebody being dissatisfied with his service therefore he thinks you are a threat. when I brought to his attention that I was not satisfied he instantl...y felt threatened instead of hearing my thoughts and concerns. I would never have him represent you. He is a lazy money hungry coward.

Simple case took far longer to complete than necessary, and in the end he did a terrible job as my attorney. He's very poor at communicating after a retainer is paid, and you'll need to remind him who you are nearly every time you call (no kidding). I should have taken this as a warning sign. ...When the other party's attorney made demands (no matter how unfair or ridiculous) Drew's go-to argument was for me to give-in. He NEVER fought MY CASE (i.e. go on offense), he always played defense against their demands, always ending with him recommending I meet in the middle -- left me screwed at every turn. Here's a hypothetical to help you understand what you're in for if Drew represents you.... (Assume an uncomplicated divorce -no children, no alimony, equal incomes, etc). Your objective: Be fair, divide assets equally, and go your separate ways. Assume the raw math (being completely fair to both parties) shows that your spouse has $20k more in assets than you do, so if he/she gives you $10k of that it will balance things out equally. Now assume your ex has a good attorney and argues that it's YOU that needs to give-up $10k......but when you check the math you discover they made a simple error in their calculations....clearly a mistake, but Drew won't argue YOUR case or the math error....he'll tell you that you need to figure out how much YOU are willing to settle for. So instead of receiving $10k to balance the assets, your giving-up even more to make the negotiations end.....and your argument never even got up to bat. Similar scenarios like this happened over, and over; not always over $$, but the same concept - NO offense; PERPETUALLY on defense....then give-in. The final chapter will have one more unpleasantry....his bill. Found out after-the-fact that Drew's bill was over 300% more than most other attorney's would have charged. His hourly rate may appear to be lower than a bigger-city attorney, but his billing practices dramatically fluff the final total.........then he'll want to settle with you. Pathetic.
