Late fililng, favors for the opposing attorney, poor advice and the nerve of snarky attitude.

review

If I could give him no stars I would. Vince was referred to me by someone who went through a nasty divorce (another male) but judging by his outcome, I should've known better. I met with Vince 9 months before I filed for divorce, you would've thought in that initial interview he would have advised ...me on how to better protect myself and my children from the financial outcome my spouse ultimately ended up collecting because Vince didn't do his job... i.e. 401k, IRA, etc. He was outdone by a REAL ESTATE attorney who does divorces on the side, what does that tell you? He never stood up for me, told me to "shush" instead of speaking up and telling the truth, lets things linger (like wracking up another $5000 in bills and paperwork when my ex took me to court to pay HIS attorney - he lost by the way but I ended up footing the bill). He let his junior attorney (woman) handle everything and was completely incompetent in what little he did. DO NOT HIRE HIM especially if you're a woman because he will talk down to you, let the other attorney take complete control and ultimately, lose your case while you end up paying thousands of your hard earned money.

Doesn't like women - abusive in his language

Regret using him. In one word- toxic. He is abusive. A bully to me and a lamb with other attorneys. He is lazy to do work. Doesn't listen. You can put every thing in writing as to what he will say he will do- good luck getting him to do actual work. He does get to his office early to b...eat traffic but meeting him highly unproductive, he will respond to texts and email but worthless communication - can't even get dates from status hearings and does not send copies of what is signed in court. You will have a difficult time getting him to explain any document; he doesn't write it - so doesn't know what is in it and had no explanation to explain. He intentionally files sup par agreements to keep you in entangled and in court till you run out of money. He says he works hard. But it's not my case he's working on but someone else' in a different county. He must have a lot or side deals for buddies and ancillary services he pushes. He tAlks down to me and spends and inordinate amount of tlme I am paying for in depositions chatting about the suburbs and Florida with opposing council and He talks up what he'll do- doesn't do it. Beware he makes side deals with opposing council, says one thing to you in courtroom hallway and complete opposite to judge two seconds later. He will not come up with any ideas of his own. It's a full time job getting him to do any work. 1/2 my bills are calls to him to get him to do work. He is evasive and sneaky. Becareful. He met with my ex spouse after a deposition without my knowledge or consent. Another attorney in his office tipped me off. He spends more time appeasing oposing council and that is not representation. He says this won't work, gives no legal reason why just says opposing council or your ex or the judge won't go along with it. He is not a good writer or communicator. Constant cya emails from him as to what he has done and rare that he has done what he says he will do.
