Mr. Symonds has been an excellent attorney. He has worked very hard even working on the weekend to handle my complicated, time consuming, case. I have had two other attorneys and have been around six other attorneys and I have never seen anyone work so hard and care so much for his client as Mr. Symonds. His communication is beyond excellent. He communicates through text, email, and the shocking thing is if he isn't in court or with a client he answers his phone calls. His customer service is exemplery. I researched over ten attorneys and found that Mr. Symonds met my criteria to represent me in a child custody and divorce case. He has been honest, detail oriented, professional, and charges a fair price for the amount of work he does. If you have a tough case like mine and you someone to fight for you then you want Mr. Symonds on your side.

You will not find better representation. With two prior divorces, I have retained a few of them. Never have I had a better attorney, representative, and counselor than Eric Symonds. His legal ability is superb. He enjoys his profession which keeps him current and extremely knowledgeable. He is sharp, with an eye for detail that many lack. I won't waste your time and simply say; I am a single father to a three year old boy. I hold Legal and Physical Custody with an excellent parenting plan in place. I am a man awarded “Full” Custody of his toddler. How often have you seen that? Eric Symonds is my attorney.

Mr. Symonds helped me with my family law case. He went over and above too get my case too the end. Always returned my calls, showed up in court when needed. Friendly and very attentive too the needs of my case. His fees are fair and I am sure he spent more time on my case then he billed. I highly recommended Mr. Symonds for your family law needs.

My experience with Mr. Symonds was a complete nightmare! He was found via text message by opposing council. Once in his office, I found out that they are close enough to know the opposing council’s husband’s birthday by heart. Clearly this raised some red flags right from the beginning. However, proving things like that are very difficult in Court. Mr. Symonds, who was assigned to be the minors attorney, did not interview the minor's therapist who was involved with the case for the previous 4 years! Instead he kept telling me his own story how he got full custody of his own kids via a 730 evaluation. He clearly, in my observation, is still very angry at his ex who now has passed away and was unable to disassociate his past history from my current case. He also showed bias towards my ex, who was a former Marine just like Mr. Symonds. In my opinion he prides himself in his fee of $150/hour and he told me that now, since he is a minors attorney, the Judges have to listen to him, where they didn’t before. Mr. Symonds did not follow up with me about the case at all. I prepared a binder to show all of the e-mail communication between me and my ex. Mr. Symonds did not even read it, he seemed to have already sided with my ex as soon as he discovered they were both former marines, completely unprofessional! At one point he told me that I did not “please him”, this was behind closed doors of course. I contacted a paralegal in regards to filing a formal complaint with the bar, she said that filing the bar complaint would only put him through some ethics classes. Thankfully he is off the case now. The 730 evaluation was completely in my favor. Mr. Symonds incompetence and bias caused many people to suffer. It took a 730 evaluator who had 30+ years to step in to resolve the case. Mr. Symonds has very little experience. Please save yourself heartache and stay as far away of him as possible.
