Very poor experience

I took the recommendation from a friend to use Roger to probate my brother's estate. I really wish I would have read some reviews before doing it as I was somewhat in a rush to get the process going. After spending significant money and wasting a year, absolutely nothing was accomplished on my brot...her's estate except for hiring more help to verify that is kids are his kids. What's even more frustrating is I asked Roger to simply dismiss the case as I had no desire to continue the effort after wasting a year and my money, but more importantly just having this tension in the family. I did express considerable frustration to Roger about this. Instead of following through on a client request and upholding professional standards, Roger instead decided to file a motion to remove himself from the case so he no longer had to deal with it. So not only did he not really accomplish anything tangible after a year and collecting all the fees from me, he decided to back out of it instead of simply filing a motion to dismiss and wrap up the case. As a result, I now have to deal directly with the court to get this resolved and possibly hire another lawyer to get this case dismissed. I have been in professional services all my life and have never seen such a move by another professional. I would highly, highly recommend you do your research before looking to engage Roger - don't take a recommendation from someone. Feel confident he really is going to work for you as that was not my experience and I regret engaging him.
