Go elsewhere

I hired this attorney years ago. There were court dates cancelled without my knowing. Court dates made that I was not contacted for (with the exception of one where I was notified at 5:30pm on the day before to tell me I had to appearat that point I had to scramble to get work off the next morning). ...Papers for the opposing party to be served where sent 2 days before the hearing in one circumstance to which the opposing party was not considered"notified" therefore they had to continue the hearing once again. There was able time to get the opposer served as the court date before was 2 months prior. One court date was supposed to be a hearing in front of the judge and when I took work off and appeared I was told that hearings are not on Fridays. They are on Thursdays. I told the office that the information keeps changing as to what I am being told is happening and what actually happens. I had waited on one letter to be sent to the opposing party for 2 months one time. I was told I can have the letter edited if I was not satisfied. I chose that option. I went through the letter with the front office and at the end of the discussion I asked them to read back to me what they had so far. They weren't even taking notes. I was the asked to edit the letter myself and they would sign it! They do not send monthly statements or the agreement made between the client and attorney on what the cost will be. The front desk ladies are rude and condescending as if asking for my file information is a burden. The front office has stopped responding to my inquiries after several months of asking why my last hearing was cancelled without my knowledge and making monthly payments. I was suggested to contact the Bar association with all my information. Elden seems to be polite and caring and I don't know if this is his doing or the office.

Excellent!

Didn't think he was going to be good at first but got everything I wanted in court 2 years ago. Getting ready to hire him again. I trust him to represent me. Not super expensive but not "cheap". Well worth the money.
