I don't normally write reviews, especially not negative reviews. And though this review isn't…read morecompletely negative, I do wish that as I looked for the best-solution lawyer, I'd been at a less emotional moment of my life so I could really find one who would be more on my side of figuring out a logical, reasonable, ethical, and more positive end-result for me. I put $9K into an account with Hoyer Law (borrowed from a family member) and I didn't even get to a stable financial position from mediation. I feel that I was financially taken, and I don't have any money to spare. The refund of what is left after everything is said and done, was a whole $500. The supporting staff at Hoyer Law were amazing! They were all kind and attentive, even though I didn't have much personal contact with them. Anytime I had a question they seemed to get right back to me within the day, or the next day - but because of the cost of asking questions (at $390/hour), I didn't ask all that I should have because I couldn't afford it. But any time I dared to ask questions or ask for help in any way, they were quick and kind to respond. Because I couldn't afford to use up time, I chose to write an 8-page bullet point list of the ways I was lied to and how I was financially abused during my marriage, thinking this would be a less-expensive way of giving information that I felt was pertinent to my case. Having been a high school teacher, I assumed another professional person (the lawyer who represented me was not Casey Hoyer, but a colleague of his) would be able to read such a document in a short amount of time, maybe a half hour, possibly an hour if they needed. I was charged for 2.5 hours to read that document - and NOT ONE of the points from that document were used during mediation. I understand that the mediation was just a place to decide the financials of the divorce, it wasn't with a judge who could decide if lies were told and how I had been abused financially, and how my now-ex could be accountable for them. I had hoped, however, that the lawyer who represented me would learn from and understand that the emotional and financial abuse were real, and that I needed to get to a stable place in my life to move forward with healing. Just to file the papers and begin to prepare for mediation cost me $4K. That shocked me! I had previously filled out all the information they asked for when I filed for divorce by myself with the court. It is logical they would need to clarify and get updated information, but I then needed to borrow more money to fund the remaining of the already-begun proceedings. I wish they would charge a flat amount for getting that done because I would know ahead of time what the cost for that would be. I was also charged a high amount for the lawyer to "prepare for mediation", whatever that means. When I asked about it, I was told that the details of that preparation were in the invoice for that action, but they were not. I don't understand why 3 hours of time were needed to prepare, because when we got to mediation all the documents and information were on the computer being used to clarify the information. I was also there to answer questions. So, what was there to prepare for? The lawyer did not use any of the information from the bullet-point document, and all the documents that would be available to the lawyer to "prepare" were standard issue - meaning he didn't have to read anything that would be in a different format than what he was used to AND he had all that information on his computer and used it during the mediation. Why did it take him 3 hours to prepare? What did he prepare? There were no answers to those questions. I am not a lawyer. I do not understand all the ins and outs of how to prepare for mediation, but the documented time FEELS inflated. Mediation only lasted three hours, and I came out more behind than I ever thought I would because I thought the lies my now-ex told me during our marriage could at least be leveraged to help me regain some measure of financial and emotional stability - but they did not. I understand that mediation was THAT DAY and decisions would be made, I just thought the lawyer would have some ideas to make things right and not depend on me to think of the ideas at a moment's notice, especially knowing how emotional that day could be for clients - I didn't see any evidence of him being prepared - why it took 3 hours to prepare isn't known. Basically, the accounting of time that was charged to my case FEELS wrong because it just doesn't add up. I FEEL that I was taken on as a client just because money was needed or wanted, not because they wanted to help me come out ahead or to help me find justice in being wronged by a con man and narcissist. I thought I hired someone who would protect me and my future, instead, I came out very behind. I've gotta go with my gut on this one: the time charged to me does not add up.

My experience tanked after the first email exchange. It got worse after that. I don't usually use…read morethe term "mansplain" in regard to anyone, even if they're guilty, especially because emails can easily be interpreted negatively. Unfortunately, the second email exchange was worse, and there isn't a better term to describe the reply I was sent. Dale didn't seem to have a clue what I was asking for, and covered it by sending a knee-jerk response. It's okay not to know something, even if you're an experienced professional. I'm not the kind of person that freaks out about that kind of thing, because I'm assuming you're smart enough to find out. But if you're the kind of professional that is intimidated by that and lashes out in response? You're the reason people need lawyers to begin with. Thankfully the true colors were shown in just a couple of emails. I dodged a bullet for sure.

Inadequate representation I do not recommend the attorney…read morethat I worked with at this office. The attorney often did not act in a timely manner. I felt like my case was not as important as other bigger cases. The attorney made a mistake and would not correct the mistake but required me to pay for any further services to correct the mistake. This mistake cost me thousands of dollars and still is not resolved. When I tried to discuss this with the attorney, I was told that I agreed to the actions and was made to feel that it was my fault. I paid good money for representation on a legal matter that I am not qualified to handle and was not well represented. I would not recommend this attorney.
