Great Family Law Attorney

My ex-wife and I have been in court for years and it's been a nightmare. I've worked with other attorneys and even represented myself and usually the results were not in my favor. I found Chad while I was in the middle of a Child Support Modification case and contempt cases and the cases were a mes...s. Chad didn't have much time to work because our deadline was maybe only a week after I retained him. He did got it done and done right! He was able to come to an agreement with opposing counsel for a child support amount lower that it ever has been. He was also able to keep my cost down and not have to appear for the Child Support Modification Trial. He made sure to represent me and my best interest especially when working with the opposing attorney who wanted me to suffer and go bankrupt for her client. My ex-wife continues to take me to court and Chad has stood by me even when I was unable to have a positive balance in my trust account. Most lawyers would simply drop their client and not trust that they will be paid. Chad did not have to continue to work with me but he did. We have court again next week and I know that Chad will fight hard and win for me. He is well spoken in court and has a good relationship with other attorneys and is well respected. I am very grateful to have Chad as an attorney and I can trust that he will fight hard for me. When I work with Chad I get great results! He is worth every penny!

Understated elegance

I hired Chad to represent me in a Modification of Child Support Action. He was professional, thoughtful, informed, had a firm grip on the law, and best of all, he cares about my case. I appreciate his help very much. Thank you Chad! Monique

A great way to flush 5 grand down the toilet

I hired Chad in December 2021, for what I was told was an easy parenting plan modification and to enforce child support from my ex. It started out okay, Chad told me in our consultation that my case was an easy and straightforward one, although I did warn him that my ex-husband had potential to be e...xtremely combative and so I was a little bit nervous about the process. But I trusted that I had a good lawyer on my side and that there was a light at the end of the tunnel soon. It took a couple months to get the initial draft for the parenting plan. I reviewed it right away and had a couple of minor adjustments that I requested he make. He also needed to be put in touch with my ex to get his financial information to calculate child support. I put them both on an email together with clear instructions on what was needed. Chad did update me, about a month later, that he had the info he needed as well as the new support order and would send it over shortly. This is where Chad slowly began to disappear... Over the course of the next few months, I reached out many times asking what the status was, if there was anything I needed to do, when I could expect to get an update, etc. No response. Then I asked him when I would receive the updated documents, and he responded "These are done, I will have them for you shortly". Okay, I keep waiting. Again, nothing. At one point, I got an automated email that his paralegal had left the firm. After I asked once again for the updated drafts that he had said were done, he replied back that his paralegal had done them and since she left, he needed to do them again. I understand that if your paralegal unexpected left, it could set you back, so I gave him the benefit of the doubt and just... kept waiting. Another several weeks go by, and still no update. Several emails went completely ignored. Eventually, after I expressed my frustration and explicitly explained that this was extremely stressful and that I felt ignored, he replied back that he "sent me the documents months ago". I explained that he sent me the initial documents months ago, but not the revised ones, and that if he DID send them, would he please send them again....and still...nothing. About 7 months after I initially hired him, I sent an email explaining that my ex was escalating and I needed to get this taken care of, and to PLEASE respond back to at least just let me know what to expect, and I was still met with just vague dismissive answers. Finally, he told me that he needed my income information before he could finalize the support order. Why wasn't this asked for months ago? I had asked several times if there was anything else I needed to do, and this was not even brought up until now, over 7 months later. I sent him the information right away. I also explained, one more time, that dealing with my ex and getting no support was extremely stressful, and to PLEASE put some urgency into this, or at the very least, just keep me updated on where we stand or what to expect. That was one month ago. And I still haven't heard a word from him. He used up my 5k retainer, and nothing was accomplished, 8, almost 9 months later. I finally just hired a new lawyer. She has already accomplished more in a week than Chad did for me in almost 9 months. I could have had a whole new kid in that amount of time! I see that Chad has a few great reviews and honestly I don't doubt that he CAN be a decent lawyer who can get stuff done for you..if he wants to. But I also see reviews that sound similar to mine, so apparently I am not the only client he has blown off. For whatever reason, he decides certain clients aren't worth his time. He wasted 9 months of MY time AND my money, for nothing. You're taking a gamble if you hire Chad. Yeah maybe he'll do a great job for you. Or maybe he'll treat you like a pile of crusty dishes, growing taller crustier and mustier by the day, that he'll flat out ignore for nine stressful months. Thanks for nothing, Chad.
