This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Worst lawyer ever ! Watch out!

This man consulted with me and never called me back or answered my calls. 4 months later he sends me a bill for $600 out of the blue for ignoring me and not handeling my case and ignoring me. Should lose his license.

Couldn't be happier

I can't speak for the other reviews, but personally, I want to sell my car to give the man a bonus! I went in praying for visitation and he got me full custody. He is busy, but always calls by the end of the day. Its kind of a mom and pop shop so id imagine the lack of employees is the delay, but i t...hink it personalizes it. i like that they know me by name and he doesn't have to look at his paperwork to know about the case. He is thorough on his paperwork and comes prepared ready to fight. I paid another lawyer in town almost 14k with no results. Mcatee got them immediately. Wish I would have went to him from the get go. I haven't had any bling problems, but then again for the results he's gotten me I happily pay his fees. Ill never go to another attorney for anything again. If he provides the service I don't see a need to look else where. The man was a miracle worker for me.

Repeated failure to communicate or return calls w/ client

This attorney has never made good on his promises. I constantly have to call him, and he is always unavailable to talk and wont return my calls. He likes to eat up your money w/ nothing to show for it.

beware more continuances than substance

In the time I hired before anything was done on my case there were 23 continuances. No findings and orders were ever filed while I had this attorney. My case seemed to be not important at all and I never got a call back to anything.

Beware Mr. McAtee

I would be careful with this individual. When I received the Findings And Order After Hearing paperwork in the mail there was information regarding me that was obviously incorrect. I contacted Mr. McAtee regarding the errors and he was rude and dismissive. He actually attempted to justify his lack of... representation. However, the situation could be resolved for an additional fee.
