Posted by Shelby | January 26, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Child Custody Case Went Awry

We had a very personal situation happen dealing with a child custody case and Cody was elated to assist. He even related it to his own personal experience. He was willing to “work with us” whenever we had retained him, but I see that it was just a quick way to get some fast cash. Never heard back fro...m him since retaining, didn’t answer any calls or texts and especially after my significant other went off on him once we GOT him on the phone after not showing up and advocating for us in court, you know, like what a lawyer should do. We retained another lawyer who simply shook their head at the paperwork Cody initially filed as he was using clauses that were not applicable/old and not in use anymore. Rather than taking responsibility and admitting that he bit off more than he could chew with obtaining new clients, he simply picks and chooses what reviews to respond to and uses attorney tactics to justify his actions/threatens to sue. I’m convinced the only reason he is able to afford his orange sports car is due to unjustifiable and malicious intent.

Was Paid and never heard of him since

Hired attorney and paid a flat fee for representation. He completed the paperwork but never turned it in to the courts. We filed the paperwork and he did not show up for trial. He ghosted us and haven’t heard from him since payment was made.
