Very poor advocate

I was a client of Brad's in a divorce hearing. After paying him tens of thousands of dollars we still had not gone to trial and then he had the audacity to tell me I had to pay him another very large sum of money before he would represent me in court when he did get a court date. In one pre trial he...aring he showed up completely unprepared. he does not return phone call or emails and you will end up doing everything to prepare witnesses. For what I paid him I could have gotten a very high end lawyer and three times the quality.

Biggest crook in Lake Charles

I paid him over $10,000 to handle my divorce and nothing has been settled still. On top of that when my debt got too high he dropped me. This guy only cares about money and he definitely charges too much for the work he does or should I say lack there of. I had to get a different attorney to handle m...y case cause like I said he literally did nothing and I still had to get the divorce, visitation, & custody settled. What a waste of money and time!!!

Solid attorney, very prepared for trial, very reasonable and trustworthy

I had Mr. Guillory represent me for a divorce and ensuing custody battle with my ex wife. Mr. Guillory always provided me with sane advice even if it was something I didn't want to hear and was very reasonable throughout the process. We had to go to trial on a custody issue and I was very impressed... with his level of preparation for the trial. We were successful at that trial and I attribute that success to the reasonableness with which he approached it. Mr. Guillory has always been upfront with the issues and I never got the impression he would "try things out" in court merely as an excuse to take your money. Even though this profession garners a negative stereotype, he has always been trustworthy in his guidance. I would recommend Mr. Guillory and wouldn't hesitate to hire him again should I need representation.
