Vincent David Humphrey II

I am a 53 year old female who was diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson’s Disease in January 2023, four months later my husband left me and filed for a divorce. This was beyond devastating to say the least. I was in a bad spot and unable to pay for an attorney without going through a program in my s...tate called Moderate Means. This program allows attorneys to select cases they are willing to work on at a discounted rate. Vincent Humphrey who is the managing attorney at this firm selected my case. The first thing that I should have inquired about was the $ processing fee they charged me to take my retainer payment. This is how they used my money? It got much, much worse. They charged me to read emails I sent to them asking for help in obtaining tax documents that my husband was refusing to provide me with and was in contempt of court for refusing to provide. I emailed at least 7 times asking for the documents I needed in order to itemize my return and was billed to read the emails but they did nothing, not even a response. The next big issue that took place was they asked me to provide them with all of my financials stuff when I first hired them to represent me and they did absolutely nothing with them. Months later my husband filed a motion for Temporary Support and my attorney asked me to provide her the same information including records from the months that had passed since I first jumped through this hoop. It gets worse. At the hearing for Temporary Support, I find out my attorney did not properly upload my financial records to the court and the hearing has to be postponed. I made sure to say to my attorney, I trust I am not going to be charged for the time to prep for this hearing or to attend it? I hear nothing back but I am of course charged to read the email and charged for the time it took for them to screw up the hearing. Long story short? They did nothing for me and took $9500 from me. They are sitting on the balance of my retainer refusing to return it to me because I am disputing their billing. To top it all off? My Mom paid for my legal fees with the understanding that I would pay her back once I settle my divorce. Mr. Humphrey went so far as to indicate that it should not matter to me that he is holding onto my money because my Mom paid him. They are a horror!
