Horrible experience with lawyer that was not knowledgeable at all on divorce costing me thousands for nothing

I hired Ryan to help me with my divorce. In the beginning he presented himself in a professional manner & I felt was really tryn to help me. We had a meeting in his office with Ryan, myself, my husband & his Attorney & from that day forward after meeting my husband/his Atty he seemed to be helping th...e husband more than me! I wound up paying him thousands upon thousands of dollars of which 90% of that was for emails!!! Because of the fact he didnt answer my questions in full I wound up writing him several emails asking the same questions over & over costing me ALOT of extra money (each email whether it was from me to him or vice-versa costed me like $25/$30!) Long story short I refused to sign the 2 options he had drafted because I was not happy nor in agreement with either option. It got to where I refused to pay him another cent until he did the job he was suppose to do, that being get me support/maintenance money I deserved. He wound up withdrawing from the case leaving me with an $1,800 tab after already paying him thousands! My case was simple & clean cut all I wanted was my fair share. My husband makes $89,000/yr to my $13,000 SSDI/yr. Because of the immense difference in incomes my rights to a fair amount of support money should have been guaranteed... unfortunately that's not how it turned out leaving me to fend for myself against husband & his attorney. HIS lawyer wound up rescheduling every single court hearing knowing that if the judge saw what was being proposed would have been on my side without a doubt so his lawyer got me to sign a fake agreement so the case could be dismissed. Ryan is not knowledgeable AT ALL in regards to divorce & I DO NOT RECOMMEND HIM if you are seeking an Atty for a divorce.

Fantastic Attorney!

I had a very complex and multifaceted custody and child support case that spanned several years due to continually changing dynamics. Ryan's expertise and experience was invaluable in avoiding many pitfalls along the way and was a substantial advantage in my case - and it can be your advantage also.... The attention and concern he gave to my case often extended into the holidays and weekends, which provided great peace of mind as well as timely advice. He's a great lawyer and has a easy going personality that makes him very easy to work with. He is an effective communicator who is able to easily explain the complexities of law to his clients, and a great listener as well. An effective lawyer who is able to navigate the toughest of cases. I could go on and offer much more details and praise, but instead I'll summarize my advice to anyone looking for an attorney - Ryan is an excellent, effective, and experienced lawyer and it would be a mistake not to hire him.

Thorough, compassionate, understanding... Highly Recommend!!!

Attorney Ryan, is very competent, detail oriented, and confident in helping me get through my divorce process. Ryan is humble and has strong interpersonal skills making him easy to talk to. I never felt confused or lost during my divorce because Ryan took his time explaining things to me. I highly re...commend him to anyone looking for a great lawyer!!

Professional, Diligent and Excellent at His Job

I worked with Ryan for approximately 9 months on a child custody case. He went above and beyond to ensure that all of my concerns were understood and addressed. Ryan responded to any and all of my emails and calls promptly. He came up with innovative solutions catered to my case specifically. I canno...t give enough positive feedback for the work that Ryan did to ensure my case ended successfully.
