Patrick A. Dougherty

I hired Mr Dougherty for my divorce. After nearly two years and NO minor children involved, it still wasn't finalized. I never received copies of anything pertinent to the divorce. The final straw was when i met with him to find out what was going on, he used paperwork I had gathered myself becaus...e he couldn't find his. Several minutes into our meeting I had to tell him I needed the paperwork back because I had questions about it. Not thorough, Not friendly or supportive when I needed it the most. My file in his possession was 8" thick and I had only THREE copies out of my large file because I assume he didn't want me to know what was going on...because the answer was NOTHING going on. My file was sitting in a corner gathering dust. I left that meeting feeling defeated because he was NOT representing me the way a professional lawyer should. I had to hire a different lawyer out of much anguish and frustration with Mr. Dougherty! I would never recommend him to anyone for legal services!
