Harvey R. Erxleben

I came to Harvey due to a custody issue. From the start he seemed somewhat competent so I paid over half of the fee up front. I later paid nearly the entire remainder plus over $250 for subpoenas. He was able to get an emergency custody order for me, however the hearing for that was rescheduled and h...e informed my ex that he should get a lawyer. Little did I know that because the hearing was rescheduled my emergency order expired. Harvey claimed this was my fault and I should have known this. the only reason I would hire a LAWYER is because I don't understand custody laws. My ex got a very aggressive attorney which Mr. Erexleben seemed very intimidated by. We went to two or three cases all which were rescheduled by Harvey. The last case Harvey made every attempt to blame me for the outcome. "I should have know the protective order would cease after 30 days; I should have known I couldn't attempt to modify a divorce decree before a year;" Again, why would I hire an attorney if I knew any of this?? I promptly fired Harvey Erexleben and have since gotten much better legal representation. My new attorney informed me that Harvey CLOSED MY CASE and re opened it without my knowledge! Which has severely delayed my case. I will be doing everything within my ability to at least report him to the BAR. I only wish I had not paid this individual anything up front.
