Not only did he delay progress when the engineer he recomended disappeared for three monthes, he became another lazy middleman with his hand out while I did his job for him. 1 year, 4 simple goals, $3000's, ZERO results! This lawyer did not honor his own contract when he continued to charge huge legal fees for tasks that should have been done at a lower rate by legal assistants & then he sued me when I refused to give him more money due to his total lack of accomplishment. Do not hire this lawyer!

Unlike other larger firms, she's a trial lawyer. She has no problem rolling the dice in court, and has the backbone to prove it. Most lawyers in her industry are lazy. Take the first deal on the table. I'll tell you, NEVER take the first deal on the table. Honestly she came through on the 25th hour and locked it up like a pro. Don't hesitate to call her.

Collis & Griffor, PC

3.3

(7 reviews)

Be warned. This office is incredibly unprofessional, inept and rude. They represented my ex (and…read moreeven he regrets hiring them!). My attorney repeatedly remarked that their handling was absolutely unacceptable and disappointing. A short list of issues (from a very long list!) includes continuously responding late to my lawyer, lying on the paperwork that they drafted so my lawyer would have to spend more time (and more of my money) to get them to correct items like my birthdate, income, etc. They dragged things out so much, which I assume is a tactic used to milk their clients for additional hours. Our divorce took almost a year longer than it should have! At one point I had to go their office to retrieve paperwork that they were legally required to submit by a timeline- when I arrived they only printed a fraction of what we were supposed to. Again and again this is how they mismanaged our case. And now, a year after the divorce has been final and they still haven't submitted the paperwork properly to the courts for the dispersion of the pensions (QRDO's). After leaving multiple messages, I finally received a call back from the office who then preceded to connect me to him for a meeting over the phone... he got on the line and literally screamed at me and hung up! So incredibly rude. It is because of his offices mistakes that they continue to cause these issues. I didn't request a phone call meeting with him- all I want to know is where is our QDRO in process!? 2 of the 3 QDRO's are completed and filed in the courts. The 3rd one is just floating in their dysfunctional and disgraceful office. The entire system of divorce attorneys is a complete and utter sham, taking advantage of people who are already struggling thru one of the most difficult periods of their life. This office is inept at representing their own clients, and lacks any sense of decorum. Please save yourself the time, energy and money and find another lawyer that may still rob you, but maybe at least they'll treat you and your soon to be ex-spouse with bit of respect or common decency. Regardless of us filing for divorce- we were married for 30 years and have 3 children together. The least a respectable attorney could do is treat all parties respectfully. Absolutely disgraceful.
