Paul Garcia

I cannot understand how anyone could give this man a good review. I basically lost everything in my case. He made back door deals to make sure his fees were paid and allowed my child support to be reduced to pretty much nothing. He lies on the phone because he doesn’t have to back it up in writing.... You cannot reach him no matter how hard you try. I’m talking months without a call back but yet in that month find a way to charge you $3000 worth of phone calls to other people despite him dating he doesn’t charge for calls. He’s also charging me at a higher rate than originally discussed but I can’t find my retainer. I probably would of done better representing myself, but I’m naive and trusted this man. Please do not make the same mistake. I lost everything, am on welfare and yet he’s managed to bill me for a total of 14,000 for taking away everything.

Paul was referred to me by a co-worker, so I assumed better of him. He immediately nullified an order of protection that I had in place for my family's protection after an abusive relationship and serious harassment and stalking issues. He coerced me into believing that it was all I could do to sta...y in good graces with a judge that wasn't even presiding over my case. He consistently discouraged me from pursuing what my own child was asking, begging me for throughout. He belittled us based on my income level, calling us a low income case. How degrading! From there my ex proceeded to habitually violate the new mutual order, habitually. He harassed us by phone, by text, and in person. He showed up at my mother's funeral after an 8 month bout with cancer, although he was NOT supposed to. He pulled a knife out while riding public transportation with my son sitting right next to him. Paul was alerted of these problems all along the way. Paul did nothing to protect my son or pursue my family's peace of mind or best interests. He did not solve any issues or problems, save for prolonging the case with status after status. Paul works for the judge, not the client in my opinion. Everything he suggested was to appease the judge. He never pursued or even placed a child support order as he promised. He didn't have time to discuss any court proceedings. He gave one free consultation over the phone, initially. During that phone consult, he hemmed and hawed about how he wouldn't be sure he'd even take my case, as he didn't know if it was worth it to him. He did NOT give me his phone number, only the office number. He would let me know after he came back from Cuba. Paul said he would have my ex cover court and legal fees, along with the fee to initiate court supervised communication. He didn't. I didn't have much faith in where any of this was going after he demanded his retainer paid with zero initial action. Paul spoke with my ex over the phone-- even though he had an attorney. He accepted HIS phone calls and spoke with him about the case. Paul never followed through with anything he promised. In fact, he made not one attempt to pursue any good idea he presented. He never accepted any of mine. He also granted me one 1/2 hour of his time to initiate my own financial affidavit. Then hustled me out of his office. After that was accomplished, he proceeded to email a former co-worker of mine MY affidavit. She had called me at work to warn me, as he was not answering their calls either. His secretary would answer the phone, take a message and never would anything be addressed. Paul didn't get us anywhere but in the hole during the most difficult time in our family life. We regret initiating any contact with this lawyer. Waste.

Let me begin by stating that I hired him on October 2012. My ex filed a motion against me. So now its 2015 after so many motions and etc. It finally came to an end. I was very nervous at the hearing but Mr. Garcia assured me that everything was going to be ok. He gave me peace of mind and I felt he d...efended my case well. I thank god for putting him in my path to defend my case.
