Jacob M. Femminineo Jr.

I was billed for close to $21,000 for a divorce that dragged on, and he was not able to recover any divided assets awarded by the court. He is all about $ and paperwork, he will harass you and resort to the lowest of conduct to get his money but cares very little about what you actually receive. Stay... away, save your money and your sanity.

Mr. Femminineo would not answer any pertinent questions when I would ask him and he would not have any issues billing me for that time, even though my questions remained unanswered. For almost a year, I asked him what my soon to be ex-husbands income was so that I could calculate child support and p...ossible alimony. He insisted on playing a cat-and- mouse game with me. One day prior to my divorce hearing, he called me into his office, around 4:00 pm to present me with a letter announcing that he was withdrawing from my case because I was problematic. He knew that I had to see the judge the following morning at 9:00 am. He toyed with me during this meeting by telling me that he has known my ex husbands income the entire time and he was not about to disclose that with me because he did not have to. He also told me at that time that the opposing attorney and himself had been friends since high school and that I was screwed. I arrived at the court house the following morning only to run into Mr. Femminineo. He told me that he would take my case, as long as I was willing to sign my divorce judgement right then and there. I was about to be called into the court to see the judge and and I had not idea what I was going to tell the judge because I was still in shock about what occurred the night before. So, I told Mr. Femminineo that I would allow him to represent me. He gave me the judgment to sign and I did not have time to review it, because I was about to be called into court. Before I signed it, I asked him if it was the same judgment that I had reviewed a few days prior. He said yes, that it was. Seeing that I was under insurmountable pressure, I believed him and signed the papers. We went in front of the judge and I agreed to the divorce. When I arrived home, I reviewed the divorce judgment against the one he had given me a few days earlier and there were many changes made, not to my favor. I lost several tens of thousands of dollars because of him. He is unprofessional, arrogant, rude and demeaning. He has financially ruined my life. Here is the kicker. After five years, I still do not have a signed copy of the divorce judgment. I called the office to get one and was told that they gave me one on the day that the divorce was final. I did not get one. They were happy to send me another one as long as I was willing to pay for it. If anyone knows an attorney that would take this case to sue Mr. Femminineo for misconduct, please leave a message on this site. No one should be treated as I was.
