HORRIBLE

I HIRED TERRY SUTTON TO REPRESENT ME IN MY DIVORCE. HE WAS PAID A $3000.00 AS A RETAINER. HE ASSIGNED VINCE MATIOLLI AS MY ATTORNEY, I TOLD TERRY I DID NOT WANT VINCE AS VINCE WAS NEW AND THEREFORE INEXPERIENCED. TERRY TOLD ME VINCE WOULD HANDLE EVERYTHING UP TO THE COURT DATE BUT THAT HE WOULD BE... THERE ALONG WITH VINCE DAY OF. NEED LESS TO SAY, TERRY WAS A NO SHOW. HOWEVER VINCE WAS PRESENT BUT WAS NOT HELPFUL. I HAD FILED MY DIVORCE, EMERGENCY CUSTODY AND EMERGENCY CHILD SUPPORT AND SPOUSAL MAINTENANCE BEFORE HIRING SUTTON. ALL SUTTON AND VINCE HAD TO DO WAS SCHEDULE AND SHOW UP. THEY CHARGED ME FOR THE COURT CALENDAR DATE, EVEN THOUGH I ALREADY HAD IT BECAUSE THE COURT INFORMED ME A WEEK BEFORE. VINCE SHOWED UP TO PARENT RECONCILIATION- HE TOLD ME HE DID NOT BELIEVE ANYTHING I WAS TELLING HIM BECAUSE MY HUSBANDS DIVORCE LAWYER TOLD HIM A WAS A LIAR. MY EX HUSBAND ACCUSED ME OF DRUG USE AND IMPULSIVE VIOLENT BEHAVIOR AND GOING TO CLUBS OFTEN LEAVING OUT TEENAGE SONS HOME ALONE. IT WAS AN UGLY TACTIC TO USE, HOWEVER IT DID APPARENTLY WORK ON VINCE BECAUSE HE TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO PROVE TO HIM THAT I WAS TELLING THE TRUTH, VINCE TOLD ME HE DID NOT BELIEVE ME. IN THE END I GOT SHARED CUSTODY AND MY EX WAS ORDER TO KEEP HEALTH AND CAR INSURANCE AND PAY THEIR CELL PHONE BILL. BUT I WAS NOT GIVEN SPOUSAL MAINTENANCE. VINCE TOLD MY HUSBANDS ATTORNEY THAT HE AGREED I SHOULD LEARN TO LIVE WITHIN MY MEANS. I WAS NOT ASKING TO LIVE A LUXURY LIFE, I WAS ASKING FOR BASIC CHILD SUPPORT AND SPOUSAL SUPPORT, EVEN 200 WOULD OF HELPED. I COMPLAINED TO TERRY ABOUT VINCE"S BILLING AND HIS OVERALL MANNER TOWARD ME. TERRY TOOK OFF QUIT A FEW COMMUNICATION CHARGES THAT HE AGREED WERE REDUNDANT. I GOT $380 TOTAL, BLAH FROM A FATHER THAT MADE OVER $70K PER YEAR. TODAY MY SONS ARE A LITTLE OLDER AND WHILE THEIR FATHER IS OFF ON CRUISES AND VACATIONS 4 TIMES A YEAR THEY RATHER LIVE WITH ME. THE WORST WAS WHEN HIS ATTORNEY WAS BADGERING ME AND THE JUDGED STOPPED HER AND TOLD MY ATTORNEY HE COULD OF DONE THAT. I REALLY WISH I HAVE MY EX HU
