Hire someone else

If you are reading this it’s because like me, you are probably new to this “hiring a lawyer” thing. First I will say Mr. Neace is 1 out of 6 lawyers I called in a day. He is the ONLY one who was able to answer my call every time and the only one who was able to meet with me right away. At the time I ...didn’t realize that was a red flag. I hired him June 2nd 2023 and a month later i fired him 24 hours before my court date and hired another attorney who was double the money. In 20+ years of practicing law, my new attorney never heard Mr. Neace’s name. (Another red flag).Thank god I hired someone else because I was in a custody battle and Mr. Neace suggested “it’s better to just pay sometimes then battle.” I ended up winning with my new attorney and I don’t pay a dime in child support. I had strong evidence that Mr. Neace wasn’t interested in seeing and didn’t for a month while he was hired which is why I left him. It all ended up getting me my win in court. I ended up with sole legal and physical custody. It was clear he was in over his head and talked a big game prior to getting my retainer fee. He constantly argued against what I wanted even though he worked for me stating “I do this for a living.” I just hope this helps someone who is like me. I did document my phone calls with him and other things so if anyone would like to contact me I encourage them to. I learned from my mistakes but luckily it only costed me money and not my child. He took my $2500 and kept every dime even though we never spent a minute in court.

Superior Divorce lawyer

When I was seeking a divorce lawyer, I sought recommendation from Members of my local Nextdoor site. I was given the name of Lawrence Neace. I called him and was able to set up a meeting very quickly. I found him to be personable, knowledgeable and straight forward. I hired him. He handled my divor...ce to my great satisfaction.

Superior Lawyer

I met Mr. Neace in 2014 and hired him for my divorce. He was able to get me a generous amount of money from my husband’s 401k. In July 2019, my family and I used him again on a very complicated family case, of which we were liters fighting in 2 courts. He never failed us, not once. Everything we pray...ed for, he obtained. My family and I are eternally grateful to him. He is a professional and a decent and honest man. He has compassion, which is rarely found in a lawyer. He will be there for you and do what it takes to make things right. Thank you, Mr. Neace from all my family.

Family Court

I was served custody court papers 1 week before the court date. After consulting with Larry and having a brief review on the day of court. He totally understood my position as the defendant. And won the case. As an experienced lawyer it really paid off having him represent me. He did an excellent job.... ~

Excellent

I found Mr. Neace on Avvo several years ago, as I was going through a divorce. He is not only a great lawyer, but he is a very kind and caring human being. I was very fortunate to have him as my lawyer and to this day, I am very grateful to him. Thank you Mr. Neace for your hard work and your conside...ration.
