Posted by anonymous | July 23, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Alimony

Communication is key

I hired Mr Forsee for an alimony case. An ex has avoided paying since the divorce and we needed to take further action apparently. Mr Forsee doesn’t return calls, nor does he respond to your emails asking for a status update. After 2yrs of working with him and paying out thousands of dollars we’re go...ing no where with my case. If you want an attorney who actually cares about his clients I wouldn’t hire this one.

Best help I could ask for

I had a 3 year nightmare I got married to a man who had a restraining order against him based on lies. The other party stalked us and made false police reports weekly. We went though the court system to get modification so we could see our kids get awards or do anything at the school since she omitte...d the fact that they went to the only high school . Attorney Foress help us with the complicated side of family law it is not as simple as people think. IF WE HAD HIRER HIM IN THE BEGINNING WE WOULD HAVE SAVED OURSELF YEARS OF PROBLEMS.I can't thank him enought then after my husband passed they were there to help me with the Guardianship of my step daughter once again I didnt know were to even start and they were there. The office staff is awsome listened to my concerns and were always there to help

Great Effective Lawyer

Matthew helped my husband and I adopt my two children. Matthew did a great job with this and as of August 22nd we are formally my children's legal parents. His understanding, courteous and kind personality really made this a simple process and a great experience. When I contacted him he quickly cal...led or emailed me back and I had nothing but a positive experience working with him. I would strongly recommend his expertise if you need help with your adoption or other matters.

Very helpful!

I was referred by my Employee Assistance program at work. Turns out Matthew didn't handle the type of case I had, but he was very helpful and contacted an attorney for me to help answer my question. He called me after hours to tell me what the other attorney told him.

Thank you for helping me get my kids bacl

I Originally hired Matt to help with my visitation modification issue. I also ended up hiring him to help me with an ex- parte hearing where I was granted full custody of my son and daughter. I am forever thankful! Thank you!!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
