Great Attorney

Mettias handled my divorce and child custody case for me. He knows that hes doing. He listens and he cares. That is what was important to me. How often can you find an attorney that genuinely cares about the safety and well being of a complete strangers kids.

Bad Attorney

This attorney will not answer phone calls only after the money. He is not an experience attorney in any case. He is not the type of attorney that will fight for you. Honestly may God have mercy on him.Very unprofessional office never returns calls. Do not hire him for any type of case.

Horrible attorney!!

This lawyer and his staff do not folllowup with you or make ANY promised phone calls. I have received NO copies of paperwork filed...however my ex has. This guy and his firm is a joke. Do not hire him if you want to have proper representation and a lawyer that actually keeps in touch with you. He... is also extremely weak in front of judges. Very, very poor!

Family Law case - well taken care of

I would wholeheartedly recommend this office for your case. For me, they dealt with a sensitive family law case, and did so with care and concern, as well as professionalism and trustworthiness. I knew they would do their absolute best (which is outstanding!) for me, and could see that they did so ...for all of their clients. They were well informed and worked hard to make sure they were always prepared. It is quite a feat to be able to give the feel of being your friend as well as your very capable lawyer, but this office manages to do so consistently.

Trustworthy & Hard Working!!!

Having Mr. Mettias and his office handle my family law matters was the best decision I could have made during this difficult time. They were always prompt with needed paper work, excellent in communicating what was going on with my case and sensitive to how difficult the situation was at the time. I ...appreciate how every aspect of my case was handled and I recommend him on a regular basis!
