fantastic attorney

I would 100% recommend Mr. Och. I hired him in my divorce case and he was absolutely fantastic. Took care of everything he needed to. He is a straight shooter and tells you like it is. He helped me with seperation, divorce, child support, child custody, judgements, and more. Not only would I recommen...d him to others - I DO recommend him to others. I have had Bob as my attorney for 7 years now and would not work with any other...

Was a waste of $$$

I hired him to deal with DSH arrears my X wrongly and dishonestly filed against me. It turned out he did not know anything about the child support adminstrative law. He represented me in the hearing (which sucked up all my savings), which turned out to be a court that could not rule on my situation, ...as only a Superior court judge act on. He even double billed me, which I had to call him on. So as it turned out I had needed to plead my case in superior court, not in a administrative court, which you think your lawyer would know. Mr. Och billed up on all the hours (of which I asked for a detailed billing statement that I never received) on the not needed administrative court dealings and thus wanted more money. I then went to Superior court on my own with no attorney. I was able to research and find out answers that Mr. Och was too incompetent and unknowlegable to properly represent me. He is to what "lawyer" jokes derive, as he is a true lawyer in that fact. To sum it up he not help my me at all and was a complete waste of money! Do not hire him!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Mr. Och has been my opposing counsel on several cases. He knows his stuff and keeps me on my toes! Despite the adversarial nature of our business, he and his staff (Candace) are always a pleasure to work with. Clients benefit when the lawyers work well together, not only because the results are fair, but the legal fees are lower, too. Don't get me wrong -- he's not a pushover! Mr. Och knows his stuff. He should. He's been practicing law since God was a boy. I consider him a wise and worthy opponent who works diligently on his client's behalf."
