Poor Customer Service

I hired Dodge and Vega to help me with some fine tuning on a post decree divorce/custody manner. My initial consultation was amazing, Mr. Dodge told me everything I wanted to hear and made me feel extremely confident in hiring this firm to represent me. Once I paid my retainer, everything changed. ... I was treated like a number instead of a person, I was given attitude when I asked to speak to my lawyer. Then when I was charged almost $1000 for two weeks of service, which included a 15 minute phone call and some emails, I asked to have my bill explained to me. I was never given an explanation, just a letter of withdraw from my case. They took an obscene about of money from me and provided no service. Please do yourself a favor and DO NOT use this firm.
