Larry A. Catlin

Would not listen to my thoughts and concerns...Pushed my divorce thru when I told him numerous times I did not agree with the terms of the divorce. Told me that my hearing would just be a continuance come to find out the decree went before the judge. 10,000 dollars later and on a 3500 contract..Fir...ing him and retaining another attorney to help me fight for my rights! TERRIBLE representation

Initial correspondence was promising as a lot of talk. Actions proved to be much more different. Each time going into court, I would have to give him "Cliff's notes" about the case. Did not properly represent my intentions at all. On one occasion he made a calculation error when talking to the judge ...and we had to go back to court in order to correct the issue. Of course, Larry billed for the time he spent on correcting the error. As for the documentation, Larry seemed to be quite okay with letting the other lawyer draw up the documentation for the judge to sign. For some reason, each time that happened, the documents did not exactly reflect what the judge decided on. Larry did not seem to review for correctness and did not contact me to check for correctness before presenting it to the judge for signature. It is funny how the court records do not correspond with the court orders that were signed by the judge. When brought up on contempt of court charges as I followed the court's decision, Larry did not even respond to any of my attempts to contact him. As a matter of fact, he demanded more money to continue to represent me. This would definitely be one situation where a lawyer lives up to the stereotype.
