Had a bogus DUI and I retained alonzo who absolutely had the whole case dismissed the man is a beast I always recommend him to all my family and friends.

Family law attorney

This man is nothing but a scam. He did nothing but side step and did not notify me of crucial law decisions which cost me thousands of Dallor's while he could have advised me properly in the beginning. Now, knowing what I know I had a very expensive education in the law to which, once again knowingl...y, he did not advise me on and took me months to dig out of. In the end stay clear of this scam artist he will sell you the world but throw you under the bus multiple times

Great attorney

Retained attorney Zahour services on two occasions. Very professional, and very knowledgeable of the law. Treated me as an individual and with concern.

Awesome

Mr Zahour handled my divorce. He was very professional and understanding. He completed my divorce in a timely manner. He explained the legal system as it is in my county. He answered all my questions. There was nothing more that he could have done to assist me. I was extremely satisfied and wou...ld recommend him without hesitation.

THIS ATTORNEY IS GARBAGE

Not only did Mr. Zahour leave me at the courthouse after I took off work with no notice because he had another case, he seemed to let the other lawyer know as well as the other person I was in a case with, but not his own client? He has also called me yelling at me for not submitting paperwork when i...t was his responsibility to gather the documentation. Not only that, I had to call this lawyer about 20 different times complaining about verbal abuse from my ex and the attorney told me to "deal with it", and to not go to the cops - YES. He said avoid the police because a court does not like to see that type of stuff. Then he allowed allowed the father of my child to pay me very little support via PAY PAL for over a year - no justice for health insurance, day care, nothing. He will hurry you off a phone call within 2 minutes and charge you $25. BE CAUTIOUS, this guy manages drug dealers and just about every judge hates him. My 18 month old son is now going to be allowed unsupervised visits with his drug addict father even though both a court appointed mediator/doctor and a home case study worker advised against it all because Alonzo didn't take the time to represent me correctly. And to top it off, this lawyer did not speak up for me ONCE in court yet told me to "speak my mind" saying that the judge didn't like me. No Alonzo, the judge does not like YOU!
