HORRIBLE ATTORNEY

DO NOT HIRE THIS LAWYER. PLEASE save yourself the trouble. I gave this man crucial evidence during a domestic case, and he didn’t submit one piece of evidence. Not one. When the judge asked him why didn’t he submit any evidence his response was, “It’s just them two going back and forth”. But it wasn’...t. That evidence was proof that she was not a victim in fear for her life, but a master manipulator and provoker. I gave him a list of cross examination questions to ask her. Questions that would back up the proof I gave him (that he didn’t submit as evidence) that she was in fact a liar and wasn’t in fear of her life. People who are in fear for their lives do not say and do the things she did. Period. I asked him to find out why she lost custody of her first son, he said he would, but failed to do so. And didn’t give any updates. I literally had to beg this man for information. Just to tell me it wouldn’t be admissible in court. So I did some homework. Called two other attorneys, and was told that he can in fact can submit that as evidence. But he didn’t. I should’ve been fired him, but already paid my retainer. I don’t have it like that to keep paying to play these legal games. He also doesn’t respond in a timely manner. Sometimes he won’t respond AT ALL. The absolute epitome of a horrible lawyer. The list doesn’t stop. And this is ALL FACTUAL. Shall I continue? Ok… Every time there was a court date, he never followed up until the day of. When court was cancelled, he didn’t notify me until I called him the day of that cancelled court date. I was excited to possibly see my daughter again. It literally felt like Christmas waiting for court, only for him to tell me it was adjourned after I was already on the way. Not to mention, he adjourned another one of my court dates because of a heart issue that he had. Granted, I understand things happen and people have lives. But because of that, ultimately it’s been 10 months since I’ve seen my 3 year old daughter. 10 months. What about the pain of my daughter and I? Who cares about us? Not to mention, a final restraining order for harassment is on my background for life because I sent her mother some pretty nasty text messages. Never put my hands on her. No history of violence. Just my reaction to emotional torture. Im a father who cares. But Who cares about the abuse on fathers? Because that’s exactly what this was. Abuse. She took my child to another state before any threat was ever made with no good reason, and that isnt punishable? All I wanted was to see my child. I did everything I was supposed to do. Filed for an emergency hearing and was told that me having no contact with my child for over 5 months wasn’t legitimate enough for an emergency hearing. To be quite honest, I don’t even think he put in the petition for an emergency hearing, like I requested him to. Simply because he hasn’t done anything I’ve asked him to do. Not one thing. That’s how messed up this entire thing went. I don’t have the kind of money to hire another attorney, and I think he knew that. Reason why he took advantage. If the courts actually cared for the well being of the child all of this could’ve been prevented. There’s no excuse why 10 months has gone by without me physically seeing my child. But they add fuel to the flames by allowing the alienation of a parent months and months on end. They want you to react. But if the roles were reversed, none of this would have been tolerated from the start. It’s really friggin sad how the system works. Especially when you pay someone your hard earned money to defend you, and they do the complete opposite. He’s part of the problem. STAY AWAY. HIRE SOMEONE WHO CARES. HE DOES NOT. Update: he adjourned another VIRTUAL court date hearing. 3rd time

the Attorney of law firm : Jhon t. Doyle - was paid moneys for retaining him After he got his deposit . He ... didn’t do nothing/anything ...over the course, for over 2 1/2 To 3 months, he Leaded us to believe he was doing his job ... we also had Paralegals Preparing the documents for us in which we ...ask him to overview and we never got a response at all! And to add he wasn’t prepared at all.. I called him many times About our case. Till this day no answer or reply .. However still get our money... he’s not good with Communication or staying on top of his work ... He caught the flu on .the date for court .. and didn’t tell us nothing till 12pm (court started at 1 pm). That day was unfair to us. However karma assistance will come to his aid ..
