Showing 1 - 1 of 1 review | Divorce & Separation

Posted by Carol | January 16, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Not worth 1 star

He was my lawyer in a divorce. He whited out and changed a fee amount due my ex husband on the divorce papers after they were signed and finalized. When it was challenged, and the judge asked me to testify as to the original amount, McAvoy whispered to me that he would send me the bill if I didn't l...ie about the change. That seems like extortion. I told the truth, he sent me the bill and when I said I was filing a grievance with the ALA, he told me to just tear up the bill he sent. This was some time ago, but like the saying goes "a leopard doesn't change it's spots." I would not recommend him as legal counsel.
