Andrew Scott Ziegler

I believe Andrew is the only person you should be hiring. Every other attorney I called said that it was impossible to help keep my record clean, and Andrew said he could do that for me, and he did it as much as it could be. I sat down with him, he explained to me all my options, and gave me a li...st of at least 5 things he could do. Other attorneys just said they would try to negotiate, but that I would be forever affected. Not Andrew, he had a clear plan, and also had contingencies incase something failed. Another great thing about him is his charisma and strategic approach to situations. He talks to people, is thoughtful and listens, and on the day of my court, I saw him make friends with the plaintiff, clerk, and even the DA with whom he had a 30 minute talk about wrestling! What other attorneys have the social smarts to do this?! And he seems to be like that naturally, even if every interaction he has is a not a strategic move, it ultimately benefits everyone, because a good positive environment puts people at ease. There is a reason why Andrew is a managing partner, so sincerely you are doing yourself a disservice by not hiring him. So please don't waste your time and call him now. No, seriously, do it. ;)

I would not recommend attorney Ziegler for any custody case. My ex was/is very narcissistic, I do not feel that attorney Ziegler has any experience in dealing with that type of custody situation. I feel that my case was not handled in the best interest of my child at all. My daughter and my self were... both emotionally and physically abused by my ex but we were treated like the abusers. He was not aggressive at all in the court room. He did not utilize any of the information/documentation that I provided him in the courtroom. I do not feel like he worked for me or my daughter at all. I feel like he was helping my ex and the judge. After I hired another attorney, I requested my documents from his office and found in that documentation google searches on how to cross examine certain witnesses that were called during our trial. This is extremely unprofessional, and I found it very disturbing that he had to google how to cross examine someone. As a family law attorney cross examination is something that he should have had plenty of experience with. Especially this particular witness as it was a parental evaluator. I was paying him to help me, he did nothing but hurt our case and make things worse. Progress was finally made after my new attorney took over. For these reasons as I stated I would not recommend attorney Zeigler for any custody case.
