Custody
Charles disclosed confidential information to other party. I almost reported him to the bar association for misconduct. I was not sure if he was working for me or the other party. Luckily I found a better attorney prior to my hearings.

Irrational
Charles represented me and he was irrational in his responses and behaviors. It was embarrassing to me and others involved. I would not recommend him.
