former client

I'll give Scott an A+ when it comes to winning custody of your children. One time I forgot to copy his assistant on a response to potential contempt charges, which resulted in an untimely response motion. I complained but learned it cost more money to complain because all emails and phone calls are ...charged to read and charged to respond, plus the complaints always lead to blaming the client. This left me with a choice of rolling over and taking it or finding a new lawyer before settlement conference. I chose to roll over but I regret that choice. I wound up having to fire Scott, hire a new lawyer and go to trial. This could have been a disaster had it not been for my new lawyers high ethical standards. It was a night and day difference.
