Full and fair disclosure: review is based on Mr. Cougar being the opposing counsel in a family law…read morematter in 2004, over 9 years ago. It is quite possible he has benefited from time and experience. This review should be taken within the context of your own good judgment and other queries. Mr. Cougar was reportedly indecorous in his discussions with my attorney behind closed doors with the Family Law coordinator. My attorney reported being quite taken aback by his style of engagement, which was characterized as coming off as very dramatic and highly accusatory and confrontational. If seeking his advice now, it would be fair to ask about his past style and if that style is an accurate representation of his approach in the present. More by way of full disclosure: I was the prevailing party in my case. Mr. Cougar was dismissed by his client before a judgment was rendered on the petition at hand.

I am a satisfied member of Legal Shield. I was referred by them to Attorney Michael Cougar to…read moreanswer questions about my mothers estate. It took Michael 2 days to return my call. We agreed to a phone appointment day and time. At appointment time he didn't call. After waiting 10 minutes I called him and left a message. He returned my call several hours later saying he had taken an online class that day and was returning my call. He seemed to have forgotten our appointment. Today we spoke. He spoke to me in a confrontational manner as though he was angry. He said many things including, "I can't answer your question.", a series of "You" statements directed towards me, "you asked me a question, I gave you an answer," was one of his replies. In sarcasm he said "Of course, there are" as though my question was wrong to have asked and the final comment was "whatever, whats the next question?" at that point I felt I had no other option but to end the call. It matters not if he was having a bad day or perhaps didn't want to speak with me. This guy is a loose cannon. His sarcasm and impatience was uncalled for. There are plenty of other Attorneys in Medford. Cross Cougar off your list.

At the time it looked bleak, but today I have sole custody of BOTH daughters and I owe it all to him. James is incredibly professional, but also very kind and patient. I will admit, initially I was worried that his mannerisms would be a downfall (I thought I needed a shark) but I am happy to admit I was wrong. James may not be loud and in your face, but his legal know-how and calm demeanor is actually his biggest strengths. He knows what advice to offer and in a courtroom setting he knows when to object and what to say without being off-putting to the judge. I have dealt with 6 different attorneys over the last year and James is by far the most effective. His retainer is fair and unlike 99% of other lawyers, he doesn't try to run up your expenses with pointless tasks. He's reasonable, flexible and cares about the outcome. I will be eternally grateful for everything he has done for my family.
