Posted by Gabrielle | July 04, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Uncontested Divorce

Absolute SCAM

I retained Mr. Hobby 5/20/21 with a fee of $1500 for an uncontested divorce. I gave him all the necessary information and confirmed with him that he didn’t need anything else on my end. After he took my money he sent me a vague email with excuses and I never heard from him again! I would call the num...ber for his office periodically afterwards and was eventually informed that the number was for a call center and all they could do was forward the call to him. I eventually stopped calling because it would get me nowhere. I’ve seen a few other reviews stating that he did the same thing to others. I plan to file a complaint through the bar.

Do not hire!

Run, do not walk, away from this attorney. After charging me $3500 plus a $500 filing fee he abandoned me. I learned that he actually did a filing 2 months later, but now a full year has passed and no action has been taken on my case. On two occasions I got him to return a call. He told me what his ...next moves were going to be but he never followed through. His main number has been disconnected and he doesn't answer his other phone or return calls. When I went to the office he rents from another attorney to discuss things, he snuck out the back door and drove away. I see now why he was suspended before. That needs to happen again.

Took my money, lied about my case, then avoided all contact.

After taking nearly $2,000 for a retainer and filing fee, Ryan repeatedly mislead me about the status of my case and avoided my messages and calls for months after the Clerk of Courts informed me he never filed a case all. He has had his Bar license suspended for "misappropriating client funds to pay... for business and other personal expenses" of over $14,000. Avoid at all costs.

The Attorney Of The Hour

The moment I met with Mr. Ryan S. Hobby, I knew he would be the attorney for me. Mr. Hobby is passionate, professional, clear and concise. He is kind and thorough. You are his best interest at heart. I was awarded everything I requested and I thank Mr. Hobby publicly for doing an outstanding job at r...epresenting me. Phenomenal divorce attorney! If you are seeking an attorney, look no further. Retain Mr. Hobby. You will not regret it. Take care and be safe.

OUTSTANDING

Mr. Hobby is an excellent attorney in every way possible. He is extremely fair with his prices & will work with you on payments if absolutely necessary & this has helped me a lot throughout my case that Mr. Hobby handled extremely fast and provided the best outcome possible for me in my child custody... case. I am a single father with sole full custody of my child thanks to Mr. Hobby. The work was done very fast & communication was clear and direct. Mr. Hobby has a powerful presence in the court room and delivers powerful representation throughout the entire process. I am glad that I went to Mr. Hobby & I would gladly do it all over again if I have to. Mr. Hobby accurately described the outcome of my case from the moment I sat down with him in his office and his confidence in taking care of my needs reassured me throughout the entire process and I genuinely felt no need to worry about anything because I knew that he had everything in control. I wish more attorneys were like Mr. Hobby! I cannot thank him enough for his outstanding representation!
