Joseph Lassen

Do not hire him for divorce. I was the petitioner in my case and as soon as I paid my retainer fee to him, he was very "hands off". He was only reactive to opposing counsel's requests and he hires incompetent staff to do the leg work. I constantly called for a status on my case and they never answere...d the phone. I tried to email them and got no response. I finally went to the office in person to get a status and one of the paralegals that didn't even handle my case came out to talk to me and couldn't give me a status. They totally mishandled my case. This went on for 7 months before I decided to get another attorney that took care of my case right away. My new attorney had to start from scratch since nothing was done at the Lassen office in those 7 months. My new attorney handed me my finalized decree within 4 months. I would steer clear from the Lassen attorney if you're trying to get divorced.
