Custody case

I consulted and hired him for my custody case. He was very organised with the court dates, consistently updated me with the case movement and changes. He thoroughly explained to me all the legal process involved. When all the court hearings were done, he was able to win my case and got me FULL custod...y of my kids. He was very helpful, he fought for me like the kids were his. I would definitely recommend him. Thank you! :)

Stagnant Communication, unanswered calls

We were supposed to meet up in Sacramento, to show my case file and sign some papers, never got a phone call that he made it to Sacramento. Two days later still no communication from Steve, so I call him, feeling blown off, he said he still wants to see my case but wants me to send him a copy of my p...apers, audio/videos of the Assault on a Disabled person who’s on prescribe medication. Furthermore, thinking about this just being a waste of time, and loss of money to send this information, and to be to no I cant help you! all over again. so coping everything and sending it off to him cost me over $68.00 to send to him, by Fedex, so I knew he would receive it, with that said the audio/videos, and all of the documents that I sent, he responded less than 24 hrs and said sorry can’t help you. I just feel that he didn’t want my case, why have me go through of getting this all prepared for Steve. Why not just be up front and just say no! I can’t help you, like all of the other Attorneys have stated up front. JUST SAYING!

Client called and was informed my main office is in Calabasas but I see clients in Sacramento. Client was also advised I was just discharged from the hospital a week before he contacted my office for emergency surgery. I like to meet everyone face-to-face but was not up to the drive to meet this client. I requested instead he provide me his written documentation that he wanted to show me in the office which he sent to me via Fed-Ex as well as sending other materials via email. We stayed in communication during this time by telephone and email. It was only after my review of everything submitted he was advised this was a case I could not take for a variety of reasons I cannot express here due to attorney-client privilege.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
