    Beware! They will take your money, but not finish the job. Totally uncommunicative. Find another lawyer.

    Disappointed in the lack of concern. Little to no compassion. Was thrown under the bus.

    I almost never write a review - let alone a bad one. I must say I was very unsatisfied with Chris…read moreMahre. I am in serious need of a lawyer for a probate dispute and the only way to hire Chris is to pay a $250 for an hour rate to discuss the case. Feeling he would be a good fit I went for it. First, he got on the call late. Then, the first 30-40 minutes was spent going through tedious explanations of the the family tree - which not relevant at all to my questions about the case at all. "So this aunt is related to the guy in what way?" I asked several times to please just condense - as this part of the exact family tree was not in dispute. He refused and said it was important. Additionally, he kept forgetting what I just said "So, wait, this person is who's brother?" etc. It was driving me crazy - yet I felt trapped by his clock. How many times can ask to skip it. By the time he allowed me to get to the actual issue, I was told repeatedly how busy he was and how a case like this would require a $10,000 retainer. Again, he let me know how small his bandwidth was and this type of case would be really hard for him to fit in. I see it as a standard case. At about the 50 minute mark we were getting to the questions I wanted legal advise on. It reached over the hour - but since there was so much BS - I figured we were still within the $250. Wrong. Ultimately, Chris Mahre is too busy for my case without a huge retainer - but said he hoped to have shed some light for me. I said he did not. There was nothing new he brought to the table that was helpful. That is not an exaggeration. Free consultations from other lawyers gave me more info - and at least it felt like they were a fair attempt from both sides to find a match. This felt like I was a complete "sucker" expedition and I lost. He charged me for every second - $375.00 total for his time and money for a family who desperately needs a lawyer and does not have much budget to spend let alone waste. I hope this warning helps someone not go through what we did for a consultation. I do not feel good writing this - but feel worse paying his inflated worthless bill.

    Service requested was supposed to be make either an amicable settlement of a family law dispute and…read moreseparation or divorce. My ex-daughter-in-law then proceeded to take my grand daughter out of state for the rest of her child-life w/o no provision to require anything but voluntary 2day periods every month for my son to visit his daughter. And he was told to keep her on the payroll so she could get an apartment and set up home in CA 1000 miles away. Now he has no recourse as the clock is ticking and when it hits six months my granddaughter will be domiciled in CA and my son will have to appear in court for every filing and be considered a hostile outsider by the courts of CA with zero rights there and he will have to travel to CA and beg his ex to allow him to see his daughter. If you ask me this settlement is totally one sided and extremely unfair. So I highly recommend that if you are faced with a similar situation, that you not engage with this lawyer unless you are the party with the upper hand and are taking a child out of state to tilt the law in your favor. Then Forsgren is your guy.
