Kent Lee Freudenberg

I should start by saying he is difficult to get a hold of, and even with persistence, he won't return phone calls. I began my case with him and didn't hear back for a couple of weeks, despite reaching out on 3 separate occasions. When I decided to cancel the process, he charged me $400 for draf...ting up a Petition of Parental Responsibilities. This form may have taken 10 minutes to fill out, and realistically, was done by his secretary or paralegal. Regardless, the form simply consists of my name/address, my son's, and my son's father's. I requested an itemized receipt for the time spent on my case and was not provided one. I even asked him over the phone if he had an estimate, and he chuckled, saying he'd need to add it up. He was the most affordable attorney I could find, and it's a shame because I was hoping for help. Instead he handled my short-lived case with dishonesty and poor ethical judgment.

Kent represented me in 2009 and 2015 in divorce/ child custody. He was very easy to deal with, readily available for any concerns I had along the way, and above all prioritized the welfare of our child in all proceedings. His staff, especially his paralegal Margaret, were always polite and on top of... things. Highly recommend.

I agree with Cari. Kent is unorganized and sloppy. Kent failed to prepare proper documents because he did not know which court forms to use and failed to respond to court deadline. Make sure to keep master of all the paper works for yourself, otherwise Kent will loose them. I also had to retain ...a new attorney to settle my case in much efficient and less expensive manner. My new lawyer told me that Kent is either really stupid who does not know what is he doing or he is just after your money by dragging your case. You want to find an aggressive lawyer who works in a law firm with several other lawyers. Never retain a lawyer who works by himself. Time is critical, you must act in a timely manner to respond to court orders. And if your lawyer does not know how to handle your case, then he or she should admit it upfront and should tell you that immediately to seek help from another lawyer rather than dragging the case and just collecting money from you.
