Be wary

The least effective lawyer to hire. He’s unreachable by phone/text. He only responds to emails and never in a timely fashion. If your question is urgent you will never hear from him until the answer no longer matters. At consultation he will look you in the eye and tell you he will fight for you but... he simply doesn’t. He capitulates to the other lawyers requests to a fault. After four or five years of disappointment I hired another lawyer. I couldn’t believe the difference. Prompt responses to emails, effective suggestions for strategy and quite simply, advocacy. With my new lawyer I got the first ever positive results regarding any issue in my divorce. If you want a lawyer to file your paperwork and cash your checks he’s your man. If you want an advocate to fight for you, you should look elsewhere.
