Don't waste your money

A lot of Alex's clients have gone to other lawyers due to his lack of work. He told me to sign my divorce decree even though I was owed more. He just wanted to get it over with. I had a leftover retainer of $6k that he kept and drew out the process of finalizing my custody order. I had to keep ca...lling and calling in order to get a response. Instead he lied about filing and due dates, threatened to withdraw from my court case, but did not. I had to hire another lawyer and go through the bar to get my retainer back. His exact words were "that's how lawyers make money". And that's exactly what he will do. Fill his own pockets before helping you out. Don't be fooled by the flat fee. If you ask for an itemized invoice he will charge $400 per hour. If I knew that I would've got monies worth instead of the mediocre deadlines.

Great lawyer

I hired Alex for a family court case and he did an amazing job! He listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions in a timely manner. I am new to family court and he had to explain a lot to me. He always took the time to do that. He fought hard for me in that court room! I was happy to hav...e him in my corner!!

He’s amazing!

He helped me win a case and helped my mom with hers too. He’s also helped quite a few members in Las Vegas Parent Zone with their cases and he’s honestly the best Vegas Family lawyer I’ve ever come across…the dude is brilliant. Watch his videos on our nevada judges because just watching his interview...s show he’s very knowledgeable and someone you want on your side. .facebook.com/groups/LVParentZone/ Signed, Vegas born & raised

High conflict custody

I'm currently in the middle of a high conflict, post divorce, custody nightmare. I made mistakes by hiring a different lawyer at the beginning of my modification request. Hiring Alex and his team had been wonderful for my case. Alex truly cares about his clients and his cases and tries hard to kee...p you as informed as possible. I only wish I would have hired him sooner.

Do your research before you hire

I was referred to him by a friend, who lost over $25k, paying her ex husband attorney fees because of his actions. After a year plus in court, my case was taken by a public defender (After I finally fired him and lost 3k in the process) the day before court and was dismissed in a preliminary hearing ...needing only 15 minutes to expose the false allegations against me. Alex had encouraged me to take a deal, stating this was the best deal I was going to be offered and could and most likely look at jail time. He is a poor excuse for an attorney and should be disbarred. There are many people within the legal system, who feel as I do, trying to make this happen. His response is easily predicted as he and his incompetent assistant, Michancy Cramer, will always attempt victim status.
