Very Incompetent....caused me to lose custody
Christopher Carr was formally under half price lawyers. He was contracted to complete my motionI in my custody case, he did this, but did not file it on time as well as filed it improperly. The court denied my motion because of this and it was never accepted into my case. The judge never saw my side ...
Christopher Carr
Replied last April 29, 2013There are factual inaccuracies here. The papers the party refers to WERE filed with the Court, but the court clerk's office rejected them for invalid reasons (they stated that a required document was not attached, but it was and obviously was missed by Court staff). Client did NOT retain me to represent her at the hearing that she is referring to and came complaining to me about how poorly she had done in court representing herself. In order to correct the COURT'S error (in wrongly rejecting her paperwork), I filed a Motion AT NO CHARGE TO HER and went back to the Court. At the subsequent hearing, the Judge explained that she had been given an opportunity to argue her case herself even without the documents and that he had made his custody decision based on the FACTS and not because her papers were wrongly rejected by the Clerk. She had her day in Court and the judge had all of the necessary information and she lost based on this, not because of the COURT CLERK'S error.
