Unprofessional, lets himself get pushed around, does NOT stand up for you or for the truth

This attorney avoids returning phone calls, text messages, replying to emails, and has a tendency to disappear when you need help. This attorney is quick to believe non-credible people and non-credible information about his client and jump on the bandwagon / false narrative without getting the ot...her side of the story or prematurely before getting the proven facts. If you communicate to him how you feel things are going with his "services" and improvements you would like to see, he is quick to dismiss your concerns, act in a rude manner by calling you a name and/or make false assumptions about you based on no evidence. He doesn't like getting constructive criticism.

Excellent for Divorce

I was in an extremely messy divorce process with a spouse who was making false allegation. I went from having supervised visitation to joint physical and legal custody, defended me successfully in mediation, he got me a good deal in spite of the negative experience a divorce is. Mr. Cahill gave me lo...ts of advice before the divorce filed which was a huge help for me as a client in the legal issues I faced in the process. Highly recommended.

Would not recommend Trent Cahill - lack of professionalism

Trent Cahill seemed like a nice professional guy when I first met him; however, during the process of him representing me, there were many times where I felt he was representing the opposing party. He tried pushing me to make decisions that would help the opposing party. He would sometimes send time ...sensitive emails later than I would expect something of time sensitive nature to be handled. I tried to communicate that I would prefer to receive emails sooner. But I continued to receive emails late. I would recommend Trent Cahill if you want to spend a lot of money for subpar performance and results. I would not recommend Trent Cahill if you want to be strongly represented.

This individual left a similar review that included his name on a different site. I searched my email and client list. I did not represent this individual.

Highly Recomend

We highly recommend Mr. Cahill. We are a small startup business and he walked us through every required step we needed to go through to get up and running. He was very precise with his advice and patient with us as we went through all the twists and turns of starting a business. He was also very frie...ndly and easy to work with. He really knows his stuff. If you are looking for a lawyer to help you start your business, he is your man.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
