Matthew Jacob Bailey

Paid a $4000 retainer for a lay up child custody case. I did some research and asked about filing an EX PARTE since the other parent took the kids and wouldn't let me see them. Matt advised that that wouldn't be a good idea and we should go the normal route that takes months. By the time I realize...d he was incompetent and couldn't be paid to care it was too late to file an ex parte and they used the fact I didn't file an emergency order against me. I ended up spending $12,000 with another attorney Mr. Kroll who was a shark and was more engaged. Bailey essentially stole $4000 from me and provided no services. He sucks. Please if you see this review have him work on contingency or something because paying him up front is just so he can take the money and bill it all away with out ANY ACTION AT ALL. I'm about to get full custody with all the facts and evidence of the case, thanks for nothing and taking the money from me Bailey. Do you read your reviews across the net and wonder why you are so uniformly poorly rated?? My mother said ignore the reviews it's only upset people who leave bad reviews when it happens they lose, sorry mom you were wrong, wish I had listened to the reviews on avvo and Google. I went 8 months without seeing my kids due to this lazy clown and the fact he didn't do as I even advised him to do, and it was used against me. "You didn't file an ex parte so you must not have been that worried about them in other parents care" Oops!!!!!
