Michael L Whitmarsh

I’m writing this post in case it could save someone from having a similar experience that I had as a former employee. In 2018 I worked for Michael Whitmarsh as a legal assistant, and it was the worst work experience I have ever had in my life. Working under Michael Whitmarsh made me realize the i...mportance of working in a respectful, communicative and healthy environment for my quality of life. The sheer disrespect and aggression that Michael Whitmarsh displayed towards me on the regular deeply affected me during my time there and thereafter. I have always had positive relationships with my employers and peers, and to this day, Michael Whitmarsh is the only employer I’ve ever had that left me with almost exclusively negative memories. I’m grateful that I mustered the courage to quit when I did and the lesson I learned to never let anyone treat me like that again.

Horrible service. Felt like he was on my husbands side the whole time. Wasted $5000 on nothing. I had to keep calling to see what was happening with my case. Could not confine in him. Charged me for ridiculous work, calls and emails. I ended up going back with my husband and stopped the divorce/case.... I suggest a real lawyer. My husbands, Gille Kaye Law Group, PC . Pasadena CA. Great people nice and actually wanna do the work and help. They even gave back my husband his half deposit back $2,700. Unlike these people rip off, there only in it for the money.

I was referred to Michael in 2014 by my business lawyer when my wife of six years filed for divorce, demanded half of my business and an incredible amount of spousal support. I did not have a prenup. My divorce wrapped up at the end of 2015, and Michael recently circled back to ask for a review of my... experience working with him. I told him that I would be happy to because of how much he helped me. The best part about hiring Michael to do my divorce was that he accurately predicted how long the entire process would take, how much I would end up having to pay my ex in spousal support, and how much the whole divorce would cost. I didn't want to hear it, but I'm glad that he told me straight. I am a small business owner. I have 5 employees who I've had for years, and Michael knew an incredible amount about business bookkeeping and accounting that saved me a lot of grief. Most of all, he calmed me down when my ex-spouse threatened my business or made unreasonable demands. If it had not been for Michael, I'm not sure that my business would have survived the divorce. Thanks again, Michael.
