Poor attorney. Rude to clients but afraid of court

I had a similar experience with Kevin Massaro. he is rude if you dont agree with him and wanted to force a settlement that was crazy since he was afraid of court. I disagreed an she yelled at me. In court , he was unprepared and seemed more concerned about being liked than helping me . He was diffi...cult to reach and was often gone from office and did not seem to work hard at least in my case. I fired him and my new attorney said kevin had a reputation and did not know why he hadnt been fired from the firm. My new attorney understood the case and planned a good strategy which kevin never did. The case ultimately settled for much better than Kevin would have and I was not yelled at by my new attorney. He should not be allowed to be rude to clients but he runs amok and nobody reigns him in.

Unprofessional and only concerned with getting paid

If you are considering hiring the Harris Law Firm or more specifically, Kevin Massaro, to handle your case, RUN!!!! You will not be represented and you will pay a fortune for the "privilege". Initially Kevin sounded like he really understood my situation and how to deal with my bullying, narcis...sistic, vindictive ex-husband who insists upon taking me to court when he fails to follow the court order. However, after weeks of working with Kevin, I would describe him as an opportunistic bully, condescending, unethical, incompetent, and extremely expensive. Dealing with him was even more painful and stressful than my actual court case. The long and the short of his gross negligence is that he refused to make a phone call that could have gotten this frivolous and ridiculous case thrown out of court AND he lied and said that we needed to go to court because the ball was in motion. He showed up to court painfully unprepared and attempted to distract everyone by flirting with opposing counsel and kidding around about the last case he and opposing counsel had litigated together. The magistrate asked more questions and learned more about the previous case than she did about mine. When given the opportunity to discuss the merits of my case, Kevin he said NOTHING. When she stated that she was going to make me pay my ex's attorney fees I spoke up and began to do Kevin's job. Kevin told me to "Shut Up!", loud enough for all to hear...then he proceeded to WATCH and say nothing as my case completely unraveled. This train-wreck cost me in excess of $12,000.00,,,he got paid for doing NOTHING!! Within 72 hours I fired him and hired another attorney. In the end, the new attorney called the court, The case was thrown out, with one simple phone call. I am sharing all of this to let you know that if any of the above sounds remotely familiar, this is not in your head, it is really happening, and it isn't going to get better!!! By nature I am an optimistic person and I have never posted a review, much less a negative one. I find Kevin's gross negligence & Richard Harris' subsequent willingness to look the other way so egregious that I simply could not sit still any longer. By speaking out I hope this will save someone the heartache, stress, and financial burden that I had to endure!! I would never recommend Kevin Massaro or the Harris Law Firm to anyone

Kevin Massaro Attorney

Kevin Massaro was my divorce lawyer for the past 2 months. He is an expert in the law and whenever I had a question, he would respond to my emails within minutes and take my call or return my calls within the hour. Kevin is professional and I couldn't have asked for a better attorney. Kevin took gre...at care to make my divorce as least expensive as it could be which really meant a lot to me. I felt that he cared about me and my kids and he really wanted to do a great job for me....and he did...Thank you Kevin

Fantastic Attorney

Kevin and his senior paralegal Linda worked on my child support arrearages case. I had not had any success through the state enforcement agencies for 10 years and the amount of the arrearage was substantial. Kevin was diligent in fighting for me and won my case. I couldn't ask for a better experie...nce for such a stressful subject matter. They were always on top of everything, were extremely knowledgeable, and responded to any question or concern I had quickly. They show kindness and compassion as well, which is rare these days. I highly recommend this team and The Harris Law Firm.

Run, don't walk away from him

I had a terribe experience with Kevin Massaro. Kevin Massaro was not knowledgable and became defensive and a bully when challenged. Yet, when he went to court, he was afraid and tried to bully me to settle. My spouse's attorney eventually told me that Kevin was not smart or knowledgable and whe...n I fired him, I ended up getting a great result. I paid way too much for nothing. When I tried to call him, he was always leaving office early. He has great paralegal who was smarter than Kevin and tried to help me but I got the impression she was bullied by him as well. The firm has a good reputation but stay away from Kevin Massaro.
