J. Patrick Spruiell

I hired Mr. Spruiell for my divorce case sometime at the end of 2014. I was leery about hiring him after I read the one review on this website. However, after seeking more referrals from friends and family, he was strongly recommended to me. I set up my free consultation and was very pleased with his... blunt and honest advice. I didn't have to wait a year or more to get my divorce. Mr. Spruiell's office was "on the ball" when it came to the statutory waiting period and kept me updated periodically. His secretary was very easy to interact and work with. I did ask about staff or office issues that I had "heard" when I spoke with Mr. Spruiell in my consultation. Apparently, his secretary that he had prior to the end of 2014 would withhold information that client's would leave for him and Mr. Spruiell would have no idea that an issue was even occurring. Once this came to light and a new secretary was hired, he has had no complaints from what I can see from my research. I would HIGHLY recommend Mr. Spruiell to anyone in need of legal services. The review posted on this website is very misleading.

Very pleased upon our first and second meetings. However his office staff was not bright at all. I had to notify them when my 60 day waiting period was up. I also had to notify them of numerous mistakes. The lady actually argued with me and dismissed my concerns. Now I find out my concerns were valid.... They gave the attorney general the wrong address and I still haven't received my paperwork from them. Due to her mistakes I also am not receiving the correct amount of child support. I have emailed and written a letter and still have not received a response from him. I have called twice requesting why I haven't heard from him, only to be told a letter has already been mailed yet no letter ever comes.
