From the moment he took on my case he kept me informed and offered alternative solutions throughout the process. Whenever I contacted his office he would always return my call in a timely manner or if he was in court his staff would make sure I was taken care of. I have not only referred my friends to his firm but my own family members. I also contacted him and other local business owners to assist with donations for a local family who has a child suffering from cancer. He not only donated but he volunteered! He is a great lawyer with a servant's heart.

After my brother passed, we hired this firm to take care of his estate. The family lives out of…read morestate so it was easier to hire someone to get his affairs in order. My brother had very little assets and no property so we thought this would be a simple process. After 6 months of very little contact we had to continuously call to get an update of any progress. As a family we just wanted closure and ensure everything was getting completed. In short, after over a year of not getting completed or getting much response we ended up doing a lot of the work to close out his estate. I closed out his student loans and some accounts as well as obtained his W-2's to get his taxes done. With this we asked them to please close out the rest and send the money to my father. My father finally received the money but with no explanation of what was done or where it came from! As we are glad to finally have everything settled after 1 yr +, we found this law firm to be very unprofessional and uncaring to our grief of getting this simple matter completed! They still got paid and we still have no detailed bill of what they did! Beware if you are using this law firm for estate probate!

I recently retained this attorney to help resolve child support issues where I was overpaying based…read moreon my current military income. As an active-duty service member, I needed an adjustment to reflect my actual earnings, and I trusted her expertise to handle the modification process efficiently. Unfortunately, the experience was deeply disappointing and mirrored many of the complaints I've since read from other clients. Over three months, I watched my retainer dwindle to nearly nothing with virtually no meaningful progress or resolution. Communication was one-sided--I was constantly the one reaching out via calls or emails just to get any kind of update, and responses were often delayed or nonexistent. When a hearing date was finally set, the opposing party requested a last-minute postponement, and my attorney did little to nothing to advocate against it or push for my interests. The result? The hearing was delayed indefinitely with no new date scheduled, leaving my case in limbo and my overpayments continuing. Now, she's demanding an additional $4,000 to continue, or she'll withdraw as my counsel--after delivering minimal results and burning through the initial funds. Her tone in communications has frequently been disrespectful and dismissive, which only added to the frustration during an already stressful time. This felt like a case overloaded on her end with too many clients for a small operation to manage effectively, leading to reactive rather than proactive work. I would not recommend this law firm to anyone, especially if you're looking for dedicated representation without wasting significant money on little to no results. Save yourself the headache and look elsewhere for competent, responsive legal help.
