Kenneth R. Bergquist

Mr. Bergquist was retained at a crucial and desperate time and with very real hardship. He took my case with the promise of urgency, yet filed my paperwork in the incorrect jurisdiction (wrong Court) and failed to take swift and firm action as promised. I can quote him as apologizing for leaving me... "on the back burner" when in fact he made clear and upfront promises to be strong and forceful in my matter. His apathy and lack of follow through caused me the loss of all joint assets after a 26 year (dependent income spouse) marriage, created protracted hardship and extreme stress resulting in never before experienced health problems. He blatantly went back on his word to keep communication with opposing counsel open and aboveboard by taking a conference in the Judge's private chambers thus excluding me from knowing what his disclosures and promises to the opposition were. The end result I was forced to go to trial after removing him from the case with no representation because he could not produce a settlement (I was willing to walk with next to nothing to avoid the stress and upheaval of a trial) and ended up with less than nothing due to debt and co-responsibility of my ex's 6 year tax evasion penalties. This attorney cannot be trusted and has no qualms or conscience of wreaking havoc on your case. My "case" is my life as I knew it or will ever know it moving forward, and the present and future stability and life of my children - Mr. Bergquist undermined my position and ultimately stole through his actions (or lack of).
