Posted by chris | August 26, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Bill Belichek

Represented me in a child custody case. I hired 2 lawyers before her,one was a former judge.They did nothing. I found Mrs Pearson,went to her and she immediately got me every right as a father and also did some incredible negotiation due to my child surrounding when she is with her mother as far as t...he men or personal company that her mother kept after certain hours. Very aggressive in the court room but yet so soft to her clients. Worthy to be praised.

Horrible!

Filed a case a year and a half ago. Went to court almost a year ago and the papers from the case have still not been signed! She is not organized. She will not get back to you about an issue or keep you informed. I would leave zero stars but that isn't an option! AVOID HER AT ALL COSTS! We are out t...housands of dollars now with no resolution.
