Dishonest Lawyer

I hired this lawyer for simple child support modification, he will drag everything and keep submitting unnecessary things to charge for more. I paid him over $10,000 and he didn't deliver what I asked him for. He is a liar and unethical person to say the least.

Would never recommend Bruce Baughman

It was a very frustrating, offensive time that I paid this guy to be rude to me. He was ill informed every time we went to court, never had paperwork. The opposing attorney walked all over him and his response was to call me stupid and other names. Big waste of money and time, during a time I had... neither to lose. His office staff seems scared of him, they constantly lose emails and paperwork and aren't up with technology that may help them be more organized.

Bruce is dropping my case because I wrote a bad review

I just received a call from Bruce's secretary saying that he is dropping my case because I wrote a bad review. My case have been on hold an I am not getting any updates. Iha e left messages for Bruce and he never called me back. He is now dropping my case and holding on to my retainer according to hi...s secretary Brandy. Be very careful with this man.

I PAID FOR REPRESENTATION THAT I DIDN'T GET

From the moment I gave Him his retainer I regretted hiring him but it was too late. The second appt. I made with him to discuss questions that I had I was greeted in a Hostile manner. Every question was answered in a condescending manner and I was made to feel totally incompetent because I didn't un...derstand legal terminology. When I questioned the billing He asked me if "I could add?" Throughout the course of the case there was absolutely no contact from His office other than sending bills. Whenever his office sent copies of legal papers, there would be no explanation as to what the paperwork meant or what He recommended. When I called His office I was told they were busy and they would call me back. I would not get a return call. Things got really ugly towards the end when He scheduled court and didn't inform me. A second court date was scheduled to finalize paperwork. He showed up 3 1/2 hours late! Because of this there could no longer be another rescheduling without having to go to trial! Long story short, He withdrew as Counsel days before our case was due to court. I had to hire another attorney at the very last minute to represent me. Wonder how many people He has done and will continue doing this to in the future?

RUN, RUN, RUN BEWARE!

This guy was so unprofessional and yells at everyone in the room, from you, the opposing counsel, the judge, his own family who work in his office. I've seen it all from this belligerent old guy. We wanted a simple uncontested divorce in which he did not listen. You will get absolutely no chance ...to tell you side because he simply does not care. I had to fire him because they would not finish anything!!! If you want a return phone call, you can forget that and don't even ask to know what is going on with your case. Once I hired a new lawyer he decided to intervene so I could not finalize my divorce with the new lawyer. I hired him and paid good money, yet he felt he could treat me like a dog and yell at me like my ex did!! Worst lawyer I have ever had! I have ran into so many people with the same complaints and am pushing them to file a complaint with the bar. DO NOT HIRE!!!!
