left me stranded

I'm not sure if he left me stranded or is firm however my x per usual filed a temp order because he was out of money. Spent too much on his recent Caribbean cruise with mistress. I get the call from Funnes office that we need to appear tomorrow morning !! And by the way we need $2500. There went m...y mortgage payment. I show up in morning at court. Some unknown attorney who is on the do let for a collections case walks up and says Dunne can't make it. I have the package. 2 inches thick and we are due in court in 5 minutes. The travesty of this is it was a case that a monkey could have won with the evidence in my phone. This attorney had no history of my case was unable to cross examine and I didn't even know the. Charges or content cause I never received a copy. Nor have I post case. We lost miserably. Am trying to find another attorney to go back and re argue due to incompetence of first. Basically I got passed off and blind sided. Word of caution. Do not "retain" this firm. Only pay as u go.

Jim Dunne is The Best

Mr. James Dunne took over my divorce proceedings after I had to let go of two other attorneys. I felt that they did not represent me well. So I was on my third attorney, I needed someone to stand up to my ex-husband who was a bully. My son is the one who found Mr. Dunne. In court, in front of t...he Judge, you could ask for no one better. He is prepared and extremely professional. He has my years of experience and truly cares about your case. He commands respect while in court and gives it. He is a no nonsense type of lawyer and is very upfront on issues of concern. I would highly recommend him to anyone I knew going through a difficult divorce.

Ok if you dont need representation

I knew we had problems when he asked us for questions for the opposing party. All the advise that was given to us not only was incorrect but hurt our case and we lost custody of our child.
