Amazing service!

My son and I sought out the assistance of Mr. Zahour after he had some traffic troubles and I was thinking the worst as a mother of what could happen to my son as he was involved in a car accident. Mr. Zahour was the blessing that my son needed, not to mention a lesson was also learned on my sons beh...alf. His rates are excellent and he offers payment plans. His office staff are very friendly and thorough! I am more than pleased with his services!

Not good in family law.

My ex took my child out of state so I hired Alonzo with helping me have her returned. My ex never showed up to any court date. The matter dragged on for over two years. He never dealt with matters urgently and I would learn about court dates through the courts website. When I would show it would just... get continued. Last court date he got a support order for the amount of 0 dollars. After that, I got a letter from him saying his job was done and good luck in the future. That's nice Alonzo, but what about the custody/visitation order you filed? I would have gladly paid support, I just wanted to see my son (which I still haven't in three years and have resorted in filing motions myself. Funny enough, I got the mother to show by myself and have been present in front of the judge conversing about the case more than I had with him as a lawyer). It honestly seemed like the process dragged on so long that he forgot why I hired him. Side note: one reason why it dragged on longer than it should have was because he couldn't make it at least two times (each continuance causes another month or two delay) and he also had another lawyer show to a few dates. He didn't make me aware of it so while I was waiting for him it was unexpected when she presented herself when my case was called. She however was much nicer. Wish I knew her contact information. I'd recommend her.

IRRESPONSIBLE ATTORNEY

This is the 1st time I write a review of an attorney. This person is so irresponsible, never gets back to you, and when he does he is in a hurry in which you can't even ask a question. He tells you he will handle something in court and that will call you..... Yeah, sit and wait...... One of the worst... things is that he misses a lot of your court dates. And that always looks bad in front of a judge. He lies a lot. I used to think I was the only one passing thru this but as I see I'm not. He will hold your case for a long time and the worst with out you knowing anything because he doesn't inform you of any status. You have to keep on calling him. His secretaries oh wow they never know anything, they are rude. I guess they receive a lot of calls daily with clients that are not satisfy with the process of their case. People don"t hire him if you don't want to be in stress. Keep in mind there are many attorneys out there that i'm sure they will work your case better.
