Compassionate & knowledgeable Adoption Attorney

Mr. Simpson helped my husband and I adopt our son and he was so very compassionate during the whole process. Even though we were worried about the process, Mr. Simpson was always confident and kept us in a positive mindset. We are truly greatful for Mr. Simpson's help and if I or any of my family o...r friends ever need an attorney for a family matter, I would strongly suggest Mr. Simpson!!!!

Amanda

First off, he advertises a free consultation and then he charges you. He acted like he was doing me a favor by only charging me $200 for my consultation which was 30 minutes. His normal fee is $395 an hour so he actually charged me more per minute than his hourly rate! He had absolutely no bedside ma...nners. When I would ask a question or say something like "I'm not sure this matters but..." he would respond with "Nope, don't care" or "Doesn't matter." He didn't help me at all to understand the process. I understand lawyers aren't suppose to be your therapist but going through a divorce is an emotional process and it wouldn't hurt to have a little bit of empathy. I left his office in near tears and more confusion than what I went in with. Would not recommend going to him!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
