Posted by anonymous | December 02, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Didn't want to be my attorney and treated me as such.

I wanted to hire his partner or the head of his firm, which is who I originally had the meeting with and I couldn't afford him so he suggested John. John believed my ex over me, he did the bare minimum for me because I was financially strapped. He never communicated with me or answered my questions. ...He basically didn't advocate for me nor was he interested in even being my lawyer because the second the case was over he sent me a letter stating he was no longer my lawyer. My ex was in contempt from our previous custody case and he wouldn't help with that. He believed everything my ex said because my ex is really good at insulting and abusing you behind close door so when I yelled at him in text it made me look bad and even if that is true. I was being emotionally abused and my ex was treating our daughter like crap so I yelled at him in text and John just took his side which if I am paying someone $190 an hour I think regardless they should be on my side. If I just needed someone to fill out paper work I can hire a legal assistant for $16 an hour. I am giving him 2 stars because he was nice but that to me doesn't justify how I was treated as a client.

Quick, professional, no fuss.

I filed bankruptcy with John Grover. He was professional, informative, and to the point. He made sure everything was clean and in order for my meeting with the trustee and I had no issues. Pricing was fair, and no hidden costs were added on.
