Posted by Heather | March 07, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Child Abuse

Does not do what he says he will and staff is so so rude

Norman Dotson was my custody attorney and did a great job. However here comes the most sick disgusting part. His staff is as rude as they get they don’t communicate they lie about meetings with the attorney. Now it gets real bad. Norman knew my child was sickly sadly having abuse go on bleeping child... abuse he was given all the evidence documents everything letters from hospital examinations. I had two zoom meetings with him where we throughly discussed this and him discussing this with the wonderful Honorable Judge Rancilio in Macomb county twice twice he assured me he would take care of it now here we are three months later he won’t finish what he promised and has lest me high and dry as a single mother to pay all fees or he will garnish my wages and the worst part is my child is a victim in a CPS case with the abuser and the other one and has had to spend time at a psychiatric ER for help due to the abuse and also has special needs. This could have been prevented had Norman kept his word and the judge ordered that the child be placed in the mother’s care during abuse. He failed my child and he failed the system and you can’t put a price on that. He did the unforgivable for a child. SSI not not not use this law firm what may come off as a nice little present wrapped in a bow as their firm well when you open it a bomb will explode like it did for my son because Norman Dotson refused or should we say forgot or did not feel like however you wanna put it giving the judge all the information on child abuse with my child do not use this firm especially if you want to keep your children safe
