Posted by Margot | October 26, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Honest and Reasonable

I was really impressed with the way Attorney Lacy was very direct with me. I was really angry and emotional, and he was able to redirect my goals to be reasonable. I was really in a vulnerable state of mind, and he told me he needed to protect me from me more than anything. He was right. I have f...riends who spent tens of thousands of dollars on their divorces, and I am really glad looking back now that I did not. I have Attorney Lacy to thank for that.

Above and Beyond!!

Mr. Lacy saved my home and went above and beyond to help me with my overwhelming divorce. I can never thank him enough.

2 Stars - "Fair/average" is right

Mr. Lacy was unable to assist in achieving my goal of equal and shared parenting and custody. He seemed to go through the motions. Prepared documents had errors and lacked clarity. This resulted in extra back and forth and fees. Ultimately, I found a new attorney to represent me. Examples: - He cor...respond with opposing counsel to address court ordered phone calls/schedule but failed to achieve anything - Rather than work for me, he seemed to agree to anything opposing counsel requested - Mr. Lacy was difficult to contact and working with him was a mistake I'm writing this review to make others aware that Mr. Lacy is a "fair/average" attorney, despite his advertisements and sensational ratings. I was shocked to see "superb" as his Avvo rating. This is not accurate.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
