Terrible representation

This firm has been a nightmare for me. I hired them because they claim to specialize in fathers rights and parental alienation but they have done nothing for me. I’ve used Ben Sherman and he doesn’t return email and calls, and he fails to file responses to my ex-wife’s filings allowing her to get mul...tiple default judgements against me. He promised multiple times to file court papers but then never does it. This has went on for months. I complained to the office manager and sent an email to Jared Olson (The firms founding partner) but never received a response. I was told I would have a call with my attorney and Mr. Olson but Olson never joined the call. I’ve talked to the bar and have a legitimate complaint, which I have been trying to hold off filing until now. They’ve billed me $20k for what should have cost no more than $10k and they refuse to send me a detailed bill. Furthermore, after talking to others attorneys that told me I had a valid legal malpractice suit, I stood up for myself by telling the firm I wouldn’t put up with this anymore. In response, Ben withdrew as my attorney and in his filing, he bashed me to the court making statements against me to make me look bad. I am happy to share a copy of his filing. If you are seeking a family law attorney, this firm will ruin your case regarding your children.

Super Great!

We went to Ben for an eviction filing of a tenant for non-payment of rent. He was able to review the situation and represent our business at court successfully. My anxieties and worries were put at ease by his professionalism, knowledge, and relaxed demeanor. We have, and will continue, to recommend ...Ben to our friends and colleagues!

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.
