Fiduciary Neglect?

His secretary divulged private information from my last will and testament, OVER THE PHONE, with a family member who is NOT my executor. This caused a huge family upheaval and fight. I thought that my information was private and not to be shared with anyone without my permission. To me, this was a f...ailure to protect the confidential information I shared with my attorney. Obviously he needs to hire someone with experience and plain common sense or intelligence to just tell the caller, “I am sorry sir, I cannot share that information.“ Now I must hire a new attorney and start all over again. Costing me time and money I can’t afford. Do I have any recourse?

Positive Outcome

I hired George for my criminal case and he really came through for me. Both George and his Paralegal, Brenda, were a pleasure to work with. Because of Georges dedication, we got a positive outcome and couldn't be more pleased with George.

Great guy and Attorney

I have used a couple of lawyers in the past so I was dreading having to go through this process again with a probation violation. I got lucky and found Mr. White. He was available to talk to 1 star, he explained without being a know it all. 2 stars. Price for services 3stars. Met us at the court... on time. 4 stars. Told me exactly what to expect in court 5 stars. He says I have a very good chance of even getting the charge dropped. I love this guy. He didnt even hit me up for more money inside the courthouse like one of my previous atty's did. I give him another star for that alone. Very pleased with everything he has done. The lady at his office is very helpful when I call. The peace of mind in a situation like this, was something I wasn't expecting. Thanks Mr. White
