lazy lawyer. takes your money and does not respond or work hard on your case.

total wast of time. Does not return phone calls. Does not inform you of court time or dealing or review case with you properly. Very inept lazy. Does not return email or phone calls. Does not follow up. If you want to lose your case hire him.

Obtaining a positive outcome that could have very easily become complicated

Mr. Ellsworth treated both me and my case with great care and concern. He responded when a response was needed and assisted me in obtaining a positive outcome that could have very easily become complicated and difficult for me and my family. His fees are reasonable compared to other attorneys who off...er the same type of services. He continually assured me that everything would work out positively, which it did. His ability to navigate the legal system successfully is commendable. Mr. Ellsworth understands the way legal systems operate where I do not. I sincerely thank him for his help.
