Waste of time and money

Horrible experience working with this law office. Incredibly disappointing and frustrating experience. They did not provide the service they agreed to and want to bill me for additional services they decided to perform instead. Very poor communication; you will have no idea what is going on with your... case. Specifically do not work with Alfred Kay. He does not reply to emails and does not show up for appointments. I had to make three and he did not show up for any of them. He wrote a demand letter for my case to a different party than stated in the contract, when he was only supposed to provide advice about contacting someone else, then claimed he went above and beyond which I should pay for. I received no communication before or after the letter was sent, until I asked for status and was informed of the letter with an apology that they forgot to send me a copy. The contract was also supposed to include advising but I was never contacted and had to pay additional charges to hear from Mr Kay, which again took three tries. In the end, when I talked to Mr. Kay, he said that he could not help me until I received the information requested in the demand letter...which was my reason for hiring an attorney...I was having difficulty getting the information. This office is so ineffective please don't waste your time or money. I am working with a new attorney who has better communication skills and is more capable and concerned about my case.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I had the pleasure of serving as opposing counsel to Mr. Kay during a divorce case. The clients were very emotional and assets being divided were relatively high. This is usually a recipe for lengthy and expensive cases. Thanks to our mutual efforts, we were able to work out a great conclusion for our clients that kept much of their estate in tact without the need to pay high attorney fees. Mr. Kay was courteous and respectful to everyone, even when we didn't see eye to eye. I was so impressed with him that I have stayed in contact since that case and consider him an outstanding member of the Austin and Georgetown Legal Profession. I know to stay on my guard when he's the opposing attorney, but he is is very efficient and effective for his clients."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
