Kip had a minor disadvantage in my case, he was hired approx. 45 days prior to my trial date . Another member of the same firm was the primary reason why I had to make a drastic change in the final hour . This particular lawyer did nothing for my case would constantly cancel appointments with me ...most of which would of been telephonic and refused to respond to emails or voice mail messages.
That said if he couldn't prepare himself for the trial, he should not of accepted the case. His lack of dedication and preparation for my case in particular created much hardship for me . My credibility was questioned over a very basic mistake on his part. Documents I sent to the firm with proof that they were received were never forwarded over to opposing firm. In fact even after the trial and the verdict was handed down, he was in receipt of a very simple agreement between the mother and I and he advised me that she was not in agreement and responded to me with in 8 minutes of receiving the email and its my opinion he never bothered to read the agreement which now I am stuck dealing with the ramifications of this . It has created a whirlwind spin on a relation that the mother and I were trying to salvage some how . I filed a motion based on his recommendation, motion was denied by the courts, in fact the courts came down heavy and hard on me for this . In typical Kip fashion he refused to accept any fault on this. If he would of actually took the time to read the agreement, he so generously charged me to read, this would of all been avoided.
If you are looking to have your case put on the back burner, be over charged and are looking to hire lawyers with lack of care or knowledge about your case or your family THEN YES HIRE THIS FIRM. they greatly do care about money, their money that is.
