The worst experience received from a lawyer

We reached out to this lawyer in the morning and his secretary requested 1 document from us that was a temporary order. The issue was regarding a custody matter and it was an emergency as the primary parent was admitted to the mental hospital and we needed emergency protective orders and revocation o...f a temporary order. We requested to meet with the lawyer right away and was advised he will be available in 30 minutes, the office was 20 miles away so we were on our way. When we got there his secretary scolded us because she meant available for a call and not to meet in person, we advised her that it is ok and we can talk to him in the car. He called and said that he is reviewing one document and will call back. We called him right back and told him that he does not have all the paperwork and does not know what we needed. I was with my uncle and since he speaks English as a second language, I was assisting. Alfred kept on saying "I only speak to one person" he kept on cutting my uncle off. My uncle told him "my ex", Alfred cut him off and said "sir, you are not divorced!", my uncle stated that he was divorced, Alfred cut him off again and said "YOU ARE NOT MARRIED, I DO NOT HAVE THE FINAL DIVORCE DECREE". We told him that is why we want to tell you what the issue is, he cut us off again. He would not listen to the issue and could not care less about the situation. I do not recommend this person to anyone. He wasted a whole day of our time and did not even assist. His attitude was one that did not want to help and one that did not care for the 5 and 11 year old that were in danger. Stay away.

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."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
