Bobby King Newman

At first he seemed very interested in my case and wanted to help me. But he made me pay a huge consulting fee of around $700, and also a huge deposit of almost $30,000. I had heard some good things about him as a litigator if your case goes to court, and he was referred to me by another lawyer of min...e. But when the case started, he was mostly unavailable to answer my calls, and it seemed like he was also short staffed and they didn't call me back either. It was almost as if my case was a bother to him, and I ended up having to do most of my own legwork investigating and finding out things. I feel that there were several more much higher dollar divorce cases on his docket, and mine got kind of left behind in the dust, and I was a bother to him and his staff. Pros: great office Good litigator if your case goes to court, but 95% of them do not. Cons: overpriced and understaffed Seemed mostly interested in the $

Please read this review and take note. He is absolutely the worst human you will ever meet. He takes on way too many clients with 25k NON-refunalbe retainer. Then doesn't answer messages or texts or do ANY work. He draws out the process and chews up your money with NO regard to the children he is... damaging. He never filed temporary orders and after 4 months of nothing getting done I hired new lawyers who informed me that Bobby had never filed our team orders, yet he charged massive made-up fees for hours of fictitious work and never even did the bare minimum. All his employees quit because they can't work for him and he has NO time management skills, so things are rushed last minute and often done wrong. He will make a difficult process MUCH worse. He fails to do any work so that when you fire him he will keep all your retainer (which is illegal), but no one will prosecute him because the dollar amount is low. PLEASE be warned to stay far away from him.

Please save yourself the heartache and money, and most importantly your precious time, and let him continue to chase his billionaires. Bobby does not care about you and neither does any family attorney. He will be very unprofessional to you and mistreat you to cover up his mismanaged practice and ina...bility to manage time. Terrible. He may have been good when he started. Now, he will just add you on and waste your time and wing your case. I cannot explain how much agony and tears he caused me.
