Posted by Janet | July 19, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

STOLE MONEY FROM ME IN 2020

Lied about going to help me with a child custody case we met up and talked and took my 1,500$ knowing I’m a single mother he didn’t care about any of it I tired to contact him so many times and he just went ghost on me and I never did anything because I don’t have money to even try to do anything. Wo...rse guy ever.

Claery and Green were critical in a very important matter.

I hired this firm and immediately knew it was the right firm for me. Jim Green talked to me after-hours, weekends and never made me feel like it was a nuisance. He is awesome and he is a tough attorney. I ended up settling ALL of the issues. This saved me lots of time and money. Not quite sure w...hat I would have done without him.
