DO NOT USE HIM FOR FAMILY LAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr Thering took my family law case. He implied he was a family law attorney had was a good match because he had a good relationship with the judge. Only after hiring him and going to court for the first time did I see that this was not his forte and he clearly had no presence for family law or resp...ect from the judge. he was trampled by the opposing counsel and is actually responsible for decisions that I believe threatened to ruin a family and two children's lives. it has taken the better part of four years to begin repairing the damage that was done. Oh yeah, at the end of my case he did mention that HE DID NOT LIKE FAMILY LAW CASES! Swell, huh? I think in his area of expertise he might do an ok job but NOT in family law and child custody. I lost a great deal as did two children in finding out that this attorney who took the FAMILY LAW case did not like family law and it was not the area he was comfortable in. He also had partners who had the same attitude toward the family law arena. So why in the heck did they taKE A FAMILY LAW CASE EXACTLY?? I'd guess $$$$$$$$$

I typically do not deal with family cases and always make the issue very clear. I am not familiar with this client, but given the limited custody cases I handled I can narrow it down. I believe I was the third attorney on this uphill case. This firm has never had partners practice in the area of family law. Simple divorces we handle, but nowhere do I hold myself out as a family lawyer. Our firm took this case because you asked us to handle it and we did the best we could. Like any other attorney, we cannot guarantee results.
