Replied last March 23, 2020I am sorry to hear you had a poor experience. The situation you are describing does not sound like one in which you had the money to litigate the matter to a more just conclusion. Attorneys have to have retainers and have to have them replenished in order to run a family law business. The advise you likely received is that at the conclusion of litigation, your money situation would be no better off because of substantial lawyer fees. I reduce my fees for any client that is struggling. That doesn’t make me cheap or make the quality cheap. It is alway an option for a litigant to go to trial, but the attorney is never under an obligation to do that for free.
