Posted by Michelle | March 18, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Very Pleased

Mr. Mayeux was my divorce attorney. He responded quickly to phone calls and emails. I highly recommend Kent Mayeux.

Posted by anonymous | August 08, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Still waiting...

At the beginning of the year, I filed for divorce. I have sent back all the paperwork but when Mr. Mayeux sent the paperwork to the court house, he did not have enough funds to cover the cost (which I had already paid him $700.00) and was sent the paperwork back from the court house. I even offered t...o pay the $35 dollars myself if he would just sent the paperwork back to me. He does not return calls, lies about not getting paperwork back and has still not finish filing the paperwork. It took me a month to get in touch with him to find out what is going on. I am still waiting (going on 2 weeks) for a call back, or a letter in the mail from him. I have been waiting almost 8 months for something that only costs him $35 that he was short. Since I paid in full, I'm sure he is not worried about me at this time.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
