John R. Foley

This lawyer promised me he was going to get me the child support I deserved because my daughters father was lying about his income. When my support recommendation was made and was based on a false income my ex was reporting, I had 21 days to object. It was a couple days before the 21 days were up and... he said the court would investigate his income on their own, that I didn't need to file objections. Thankfully, I found another lawyer that told me the truth that the court would never investigate that on their own. Prior to me firing him I mentioned that we would probably have to do a deposition and he told me I couldn't afford that and he knew how much money I made. I thought that was rude because I always paid him promptly. I told him I had money and people to help me out, but he instead degraded me by the previously mentioned comment.

Unfortunately, John did not seem to have the time nor the discipline necessary to organize, follow up and communicate with me. Though perhaps well meaning and obviously experienced, he approached my case as if I do this all the time and understand the process and next steps involved in a divorce sett...lement. He enjoyed talking about his life and his experience and pontificating about his other cases in lieu of listening and taking notes on the one in front of him. This lead to multiple conversations about the same topics...all billable. Expect to have to call, email and follow up frequently to know where you stand, what the next steps entail and how things are progressing...And expect to pay for his time responding. John was not prepared, drafted incomplete and erroneous documents multiple times (billable as well)...all the way to the day of my settlement where, unable to attend, he inadvertently forgot to draft and send important documents needed to finalize the divorce. His admin staff is wonderful and did their best to assist...Divorce is difficult enough. Find an attentive attorney willing to take the time and make the effort to help guide you through it.

John Foley is a superb attorney! He has strong professional skills, and is very knowledgeable in all areas of Family Law. Mr. Foley integrates knowledge and understanding of the law, with caring and compassion for his client. He was generous with his time, listened carefully, and gave me focused and ...understandable feedback. He clearly explained to me my options, so I never felt in the dark, and helped me make tough decisions regarding my case. His fees were very reasonable. Mr. Foley is very personable and easy to talk with. Mr. Foley exceeded my expectations in terms of professionalism, trustworthiness and dedication to my case. I would definitely recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney!
