Benefits off the loss of my newborn

This attorney did not appear ONE SINGLE TIME on my behalf or along side me n in representation of me and my daughters. When I was in the hospital after the birth of my second child by cesarean section, CPS was illegally invading my domicile in my hospital room and pushed without a warrant nor any re...al reason, to take custody of my baby. There were no hospital test results that even warranted concern, yet CPS still invaded my life and that of my newborn baby. I called upon Mr. Zurbriggen, as my PAID attorney to come down to the hospital to help prevent removal of my child for absolutely no reason, and his response was that he and his son wereeggl at the Phoenix Open and he couldn't and wouldn't leave to come assist me. I was in the hospital with my daughter for four days and he never once showed up. When I hired him, I paid Mr. Zurbriggen a flat fee of $3500.00 upon his promise that he could help me with my family law problems where CPS was invalidly and unlawfully interrupting the relationship, care, and custody of my two daughters. I paid an additional $800.00 (total=$4300.00) to Mr. Zurbriggen to do absolutely nothing for me. He actually ALLOWED the Dependency Judge, Colleen McNally, to FIRE HIM from MY case without representing me at all. How can a judge fire a lawyer to a party of a case they preside over? That shows some extreme bias and coercion I am certain. I am an honorably discharged Army veteran that's served 5 years during the Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom with no negative marks, and I paid for the services of Mr. ZURBRIGGEN DURING THIS very difficult, heart-wrenching situation out of my Post 9/11 GI BILL and School Loans in hopes to save my babies from wrongfully being taken by the evil, corrupt juvenile court system here in Arizona. Well, I still don't have them, my rigjts have been terminated, and it has been nearly 5 years since I hired Mr. Jeffrey Zurbriggen.

Custody and Adoption

Mr. Zurbriggen helped me with a post divorce modification and got much more than I ever wanted or thought I could get! While working with him, I then realized he also did severances and adoptions, so I used him for that too. He expedited my severance and adoption, and completed the whole process ve...ry quickly. I owe my family to Jeff. He is so caring and calm, but is a tiger in the courtroom when needed.
