This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Run. Do not hire this firm.

I’ve been through the nightmare of hiring and firing four previous divorce attorneys, but this firm was, without question, the worst. They will drain your finances without achieving a single productive outcome. In fact, they managed to undo progress and make my situation even worse. The only time you... can expect prompt attention is when they’re demanding payment. Communication was abysmal. Most emails consisted of a dismissive “see below,” with no actual strategy or clear advice. Despite the friendly facade at the initial meeting, it was all empty promises. Broken commitment after broken commitment. If you enjoy dealing with condescending, absent-minded, frequently vacationing attorneys who seem more concerned with their bank accounts than your legal issues, then this firm is your match. I had to resend information repeatedly, and it took two years for them to spell my name correctly. Opposing counsel even commented on their sluggish response time, which often stretched from days to weeks. To add insult to injury, I was charged in advance for a conference that was canceled—no refund in sight. Yet, somehow, I still received an arbitrary $200 bill. The legal assistant’s incompetence was the cherry on top. Attention to detail was nonexistent, and accountability was clearly a foreign concept to the entire team. The only silver lining? I finally found a competent lawyer. It wasn’t until I experienced real legal representation that I realized just how poorly I had been treated and how grossly incompetent this firm truly is. Do your research. Read every review like this one—although I wouldn’t be surprised if it mysteriously disappears or is met with one of the firm’s trademark snarky, defensive responses. Proceed with caution, and if you value your sanity and finances, look elsewhere.
