Horrible

He did absolutely no work on my case in the 5 weeks he had it. He took all of my money despite not even filing 1 single order! He never set up status quo despite having been in court! He subpoenaed information that he never got to view. Refused to get the information from the judge and give it to me ...because he wasn’t my lawyer anymore. Extremely unprofessional. Often express to continuously email him anything I needed but charged me for every email. Even when they were multiple emails in one day, he charged me for every email. He’s taking advantage of people during hard times with no empathy for the situation. He failed to inform me that accepting an order of protection wasn’t just on my ex it was on MY house and all of MY personal belongings in the house!!!! He truly screwed me over. Stay away!

Quick and Amazing

Was very helpful throughout the whole process and any part where I was confused he took the time to explain it for me.
