I met Shawn 1 1/2 years ago and asked him to help because my previous lawyer was not doing anything to help. Shawn jumped in and explained to me what needed to be done and he took care of it. I couldn't have been more please!!! Shawn more than exceeded all my expectations and I would 110% recommend him to anyone who is in this situation!! Again, all I can say to describe him is SUPER FANTASTIC!!!!

I keep being told that that I was burned in my divorce and that should report him. I am reminded…read morethat divorce attorneys have no malpractice insurance. Scott failed to represent me in soo many ways that I can not recommend him. I feel he could be a good person but his legal skills are poor. If he was in a bad life circumstance he should have recommended someone to take over for him. He was unprepared for court most of the time. He failed to ask good questions of the other side. He lost favor with the Judge and could not finish my divorce for years despite no assets to be divided. I was told by other attorneys that my decree was among the worst they have seen.

Scott Sinton is exceptional in knowledge and application of the law in his area of expertise. He…read morehas always been personable, respectful, sincere and patient in representing me. His representation is impeccable and flawless. He stayed on top of all matters related to my case, and because he listened so well to my situation, he showed his strengths in my case that might have be missed by another attorney who is impatient or fails to listen to me. I would recommend Scott Sinton to anyone who needs divorce/child support help. I know for sure if Scott takes your case, you can expect he will handle you and your case with the utmost professionalism, respect and integrity and do everything possible to achieve a favorable outcome.

I've been through my share of lawyers and I think there is nothing worse than retaining counsel,…read moreonly to discover that they are just as bad as all the other law firms you tried to escape. This won't be a long review, because I could probably right a small novel about my entire horrific experience with Marc Alberts law firm. However, I will suffice to say that as a client I am very displeased with the service I received. As a brief overview: - On multiple occasions I got excuses that the attorney has the wrong phone number for me (when in fact I hadn't change my number since I retained him) - I had a court date, they forgot to send me out a letter notifying me and I found out 3 days beforehand. - The lawyer often talks over you, acts curt, and has this "I don't really give a shit" shrug and je ne sais qua about him (mind you, not in the beginning when he wants you to sign a contract for his legal services) - I absolutely did NOT appreciate being given a different lawyer a day before trial when I'm under the complete impression that there was only 1 lawyer in the law firm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - The newbies (I can only speak about one without naming names) is mediocre. Gives an honest try. Equally attempts to talk over you. - Their legal assistant talks over you at times, disseminates misinformation based on the facts she has, which are contrary to what the attorney knows. In the grand scheme of things, I'm so happy to walk away from this firm and never look back!!! EVER! It would be fair to state that I could be upset because I was unhappy about my settlement, but when you feel like someone just half-assed your case....it tends to burn. P.S. If you see my first review, then you would know that 3 years with this firm gives me the right to render a fair assessment based on my experience. My apology goes out to any Yelpers that might have heeded my last review and went with this law firm. BEWARE. If it smells like a duck, walks like a duck, and for Pete's sake...has the markings of a duck......its a F##&)(*$ duck!!!!!

I never received a copy of the hold harmless agreement and only after two emails and a phone call was I allowed to see the document which had been voided out ostensibly for incorrect verbiage but in actuality because it was a highly unethical money grubbing strategy to extract as much money as possible from me. This firm will only look out for their own best interest and not the clients. Buyer beware indeed!

Thank you, Robert!

Thank you very much Mark Schondorf! Mark had the very difficult task of dealing with my case that…read moreis far from usual. I have already been divorced for several years, but moved out of state for a job teaching third grade. These circumstances made Mark's job extra complicated. Not only did he need to accommodate the fact that I live so far away, but he was left dealing with the most uncooperative ex-husband that walks the earth. To make matters worse, he was also left face to face with the worst, most unprofessional judge in the history of divorce court... Judge Trew. Mark did his very best to talk me through every step of the process involved in renegotiating my divorce agreement to accommodate the fact that I now live in another state than my children. When things in court did not go the way one would expect, he reassured me every step of the way that he would get us through the process with favorable results. When I was anxious and upset, he took the time necessary to keep me calm and explain what was going on in layman's terms. He was very patient with me and went above and beyond the call of duty to show me that he cared not only about my case but about my well-being. Mark was always professional, accommodating, informative, and proactive. He spent hours trying to negotiate with my ex who continued to be unrealistic and unreasonable. There is no doubt in my mind that Mark tried his very best on his own time to find resolution to my situation...... something he most certainly did not need to do. Mark often made time for my phone calls after hours and on weekends. He took time out of his busy schedule and time with his family and children to help me in the best way he could. Mark I can't thank you and your associate Eugene Bilmes enough for everything you've done for me. I highly recommend your services to anyone who is looking for a dedicated, hard-working divorce attorney that won't settle for anything but results. Put yourself in Marks Schondorf's hands... You will not be sorry.

An honest review by a recent client, not a friend or acquaintance posing as one! Let me be clear,…read moreSTAY AWAY FROM THIS FIRM! I have never been represented by such an incompetent lawyer as with Mr. Schondorf. This attorney brings a big fat zero to the table. You will most likely lose your case and waste your hard earned dollars in the process. You will also find yourself doing most of the litigating because Mr. Schondorf really struggles to articulate any type of defense while in the Court Room. He demonstrated little to no skill-set when working on my case. I take no pleasure in writing a negative review, but with my experience I feel that others absohave the right to know when services rendered are so bad that they are simply unacceptable. I wish more people did this, and this is one thing that Social Media and reviews are actually good for. I will not judge Mr. Schondorf, and instead try to provide some details around his professional abilities, or there the lack of. Let us start with the most basic items, Mr. Schondorf has terrible organization skills, he is likely to request information from you that you have previously provided him with on a multitude of occasions, this will not only drive up cost but also play on your frustration levels. His overall Legal skills are subpar, I personally found myself challenging Mr. Schondorf on Legal Statutes to the point where I had to directly point him to it. You are likely to find yourself arguing with your own attorney because his lack of skill and performance will be very frustrating to you. You will find yourself investing a lot of time in keeping a close watch on this attorney as a result of his lack of skill-set, knowledge, accuracy, and overall ability. You will also find that his communication is not timely, and his work often contains errors. Be prepared to spend hours looking over his paperwork, and countless emails, all of which is costing you money. The details of your case are likely to be forgotten, so you'll find yourself having to remind him of them. If you decide to go ahead and proceed with hiring him as a representing attorney, be prepared for a long haul! The one thing that this attorney is good at is prolonging even the simplest matters. He is likely to hide behind "this is the process", so be ready for it. Once the case has gone for some time, he will likely try and advise you on settling. This is especially true when the dollars start to run out! This attorney performed so inadequately that it was necessary for me to file a complaint with the ARDC. In addition, I am now forced to consider Legal Malpractice charges against him as I feel I was totally misrepresented. Honestly there are probably a thousand other lawyers that would yield a much better result for you. Good luck! In addition, do not be fooled by Mr. Schondorf's desperate attempt to save his reputation by posting the below rebuttal. Feel free to read other reviews across the World Wide Web about him and you'll quickly realize that other (real) clients have posted reviews with similar issues. Ask yourself this question, how good of an attorney can Mr. Schondorf be when dealing with a case of no marriage, no shared assets, and only a child custody took him over 2 years and over $25k later with no wins. In my humble opinion, Mr. Schondorf should probably just go back to dealing with cases involving Traffic Court. You can take take your chances with him, but I highly recommend against it. Get a more knowledgeable and competent attorney that will help yield a more successful outcome. By the way, the ARDC is still looking into whether or not there's a case of misconduct with this attorney, so clearly the below response is a lie. Nevertheless, I am in the process of filing a malpractice suit against him.
