I had a deeply frustrating and disheartening experience working with this attorney. From the beginning, I felt unheard and disrespected. He consistently overtalked me, dismissed my concerns, and spoke in a belittling tone—making what was already a stressful situation even more overwhelming. In mat...ters involving child custody, it’s essential to have an attorney who is both compassionate and committed to advocating in the best interest of their client and the child. Unfortunately, I did not feel that was the case here. His behavior, both in one-on-one meetings and during sessions with other attorneys, was unprofessional and at times, outright rude. I left every interaction feeling more stressed and unsupported. Despite the significant time and money I invested, I was repeatedly met with disrespect and a lack of genuine care. This experience was not only disappointing but at times humiliating. I strongly urge others to think twice before hiring this attorney—especially for sensitive matters involving children. I would never recommend his services based on my experience.

I was debating if I wanted to do this survey considering how awful this man was . Very unprofessional rude demanding challenging money hungry and he didn't properly and fully represent me .Over Charging me . Taking advantage of vulnerable people . I probably would be better off representing myself . ...On all that I had to go through than I had him to add to on top of it all . HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND ..

This guy is horrible can’t get along with anyone very unprofessional. He does not know how to talk to people you would think he needs meds because of his behavior. I wish I would have represented myself this man is horrible. I would have had a better outcome and this price I paid him was unbelievable... just before court he told me I needed to give him more money after I already paid him $700. I was so upset. Either I should have represented myself or pay another $400 and I would have had a way better attorney. This man is nuts!

This is seriously the worst lawyer i have ever came across. He will literally argue with you & scream at you about YOUR situation as if he knows what happened. He’s rude, arrogant, & doesn’t even try to listen to you. It’s almost as if he’s not even trying to be on your side. I wish i would have seen... these reviews before paying the flat rate fee because i wouldn’t have hired him if i’d known he was this terrible. There’s a reason why he’s always available & works alone. Did the intake on Saturday and was not happy about what he had to say during the consultation on Monday. He will jump to conclusions and talk to you crazy instead of asking questions to try to understand your case. You are honestly better off representing yourself messing with him. I fired him literally the next day. Lost $150 sadly but i refuse to have him embarrass me in court and will be finding a better attorney. He doesn’t even deserve one star.
