Worst attorney! DO NOT HIRE!

Paid Mr. Mallette to represent us in court. He talks a good talk when you first meet him. Then he don't return phone calls, has excuse after excuse. Does not file the proper paperwork on time. Then when you get ready to go to court he says sorry I can't be there I am moving out of town and never show...s up for court. Never moved out of town. Be prepared for lie after lie after lie if you hire him. He is horrible!

Great

My wife and I hired him when we were sued. He had the case dismissed and accepted payments. Kept us informed and met with us on weekends due to my wife's schedule. I would hire again.

Do not use this lawyer if you want to make sure your child stays with you in a safe stable home.

I implore you to not use this lawyer if you value your child. He will NOT return your calls, he will NOT keep you informed, he will NOT lift a finger to help you past the initial hearing. Once he has your money, he gets surprisingly quiet and hard to reach. If anyone has given him above 1 star, it... was because there was little to NO work he had to do. Please do not make the same mistake we did.

wonderful lawyer

I hired him to represent me in a criminal matter. He was professional, worked hard, kept me informed, and reached a good deal for me. Payment plans were affordable.

Posted by Travis | April 08, 2015 | Child Custody

Travis

Charles is a wonderful negotiator and very thorough. My case involved an extremely difficult child welfare matter and Charlie was able to get me my son. He always sat down before the hearings to prepare and review the court record with me. While I hope I do not need his services again, I would nev...er to call him again or recommend him. He really cares about his clients.
