Domestic violence

Bruce Baughman does not know what domestic violence is. I had a phone cord wrapped around my neckfrom soon to be ex husband, I had bruises on my legs from him kicking me. Bruce asked me in court on the stand “oh he didnt hit you that hard now did he ?

Divorce

He is the absolutely the worst llawer I have ever used, left me in a waiting room during court told me he would be right back 45 mins later I went to look for him and the bailiff told me he left 30 mins ago. I not recommend him to anyone.

Excellent

If you want a best friend, this is not the guy for you. If you want somebody who is going to hold your hand, not for you. If you want somebody who knows what he is doing and is on top of his game, you have the right guy. He’s not cheap nor would I expect the best to be. Do your own prep work...sa...ve some money. He is not your therapist though he will listen and charge you accordingly. Be smart. hire him to do the work. Find a friend to do your whining.

Will drag your case out forever for money

I hired him because I heard he is tough and ruthless and gets results. My first consultation with Bruce, my ex was way behind on child support and had filed a motion to stop child support completely. Bruce told me he would file 2 counter suits and get the child support caught up and stop my ex from p...laying the games he was playing. He dragged everything out, never filed the counter suits, never had any information needed in court but he kept billing me like he’s was actually doing the things he told me he’d do. He was rude and condescending every time I talked to him. I didn’t receive court notifications until the last minute from his office. On one occasion, I never even received notice that I had a court date so I wasn’t there. The judge ultimately awarded in favor of my ex and said he no longer even needed to pay child support at all. I stood in court in complete disbelief. Bruce was awful. I kept receiving bills from his office for a year for the 2 countersuits that he never even filed. He is just out for money. Do not use him!

Screwed my out of $2500.00 because it never went thru...

I hired him under the pretense of getting a divorce but when my husband and I reconciled he has yet to reimburse me a part of the $2,500 for filing a nonsuit. Do not use this guy... he’s a unethical lawyer.
