    Took my case and money then questioned whether I was telling the truth or not. Why take my money if…read moreyou don't believe me. Maybe Val is right, "the old man is losing it." Late to multiple hearings and covers his mistakes by trying to be a comedian. Other party lied under oath and he still advised me to settle, even with proof and witnesses. Consistently didn't get calls back because they had "other cases to work on". Understandable, then don't take a workload you can't handle or don't schedule phone appointments you can't keep. Got more progress in my case after firing him. Do not use him for child custody cases. He does not care.

    Before I share my horrific experience, I want to warn all those that are in a custody cases and/or…read morechild support your case may be overlooked getting a reasonable outcome with this attorney. William Fuhrman has shown me once again zero faith in legal services here in San Diego. He has now cost me the safety of my child, time and money for refiling, and unfair moneys that are due because of the lack of representation in my custody hearing. He has exhibited negligence and carelessness in my case which is a little more complex. He is rude, intolerable, blatantly ignores communications that would make him work for answers, and lacks seriousness in court. Getting on to my experience, I hired William to handle my custody case and child support. Firstly, I made it clear before the contract I would only use $4000 max for services. Of course, after I fired him he decides to overcharge me. I made myself very clear that I wanted to get full physical and legal custody of my daughter. William actually told me I am not going to get that granted. I told him I want to try anyway for the safety of my daughter. I gave him the long explanation of the dangerous living environment for my daughter due to a heavy drug user at my ex's home. It was imperative I get my daughter out of there. After I had a mediation with family court services they even recommended to the judge I should have full custody of my daughter and limited visitation to my ex. I expressed my deep concern and request for full custody with family court services. With them recommending to the judge it shouldn't be that hard from this point. Well, William for some reason filed with the court a lesser time than 50% and an outrageous visitation schedule. William didn't listen nor keep up with my case with new events happening as I needed to correspond with him on such events. Even on the day of the hearing he LEFT the computer while the names were being called which in turn was not present when the judge called us into the hearing. When I called him to let him know this he told me he had to just step away for a while. I enforced my position in going with the family court services recommendation to have full custody. He then went back to the hearing wait room and didn't even bother to speak up to the judge to get our case heard. We were told we will have to come back the next day. William is now charging me for that day we missed. So, you will get charged for his mistakes. Next day, he started the hearing telling the judge the family court services recommendations were too harsh and would contest the recommendation. I had no idea what he was saying that morning with his legal terminology and considering I knew I had already told him my request for custody. I later read deeply into the subject of the hearing and my stomach dropped. The judge was giving my ex more than 50% of custody and making me do the drop off and pick ups at a Vons which was close to my ex. William neglected many of my requests to the judge that day. Returning my daughters passport, paying back all the monitor visits my ex was to pay, requesting time back with my daughter since my ex was using the court as an advantage claiming multiple TRO that were granted. All restraining attempts were denied by the judge. Requesting at least an emergency holiday vacation for my daughter to see her family for the first time over the holidays. Nope, he also made a BS schedule for holidays. All of this and he couldn't even take the time to explain to me what the orders were after the judge made them. He was too bitter because I told him that was a poor job he did, then asked him to file an appeal or somehow fix what he did. I expressed I would not be continuing with him if he didn't fix this. This ultimately ending our last conversation on the phone with William saying "go fuck yourself". Then hung up. To speak more of his unprofessionalism, William sent me emails containing another clients case information with a settlement negotiation. It makes me wonder if my case information has been shared with another party. Ask yourself if you would want your case information being shared to a random person...(maybe a hacker.) That puts us all at risk. More disregard or irresponsibility to my case he would call me to ask information that was already provided to him in previous emails. As a firm they have staff to read through emails for information.

    Hiring Mark Greany to represent me when I was accused of an assault that never actually took place…read morewas a godsend. Mark analyzed and communicated all options available to me beforehand and aggressively pursued my case accordingly, quelling the serious accusations against me--which could have left me in the penitentiary for years (if not decades!!). Having a prior criminal history, I was in a very distressed situation. Having such serious accusations slung at me and knowledge of the consequences but not of how to defend myself seriously took a toll on my sanity! After our initial consultation, Mark leveled with me, telling me the worst, best, and probable scenarios; he also explained how he would do whatever he could to make sure I got the best possible outcome. I know all Lawyers are going to tell you this but I feel like Mark really did and after you talk with him, I'm sure you'll feel the same way. He's a real person for real people and he's real good at his job. My family and I are forever grateful to Mr. Greany for coming through for us in a serious time of need. I have hired him two times now and hopefully never have to again but If I ever need any kind of legal representation, Mr. Greany is my first call.

    From the owner: I have been practicing law for over 20 years and successfully resolved cases involving everything…read morefrom attempted murder to petty theft. I use my experience, intelligence and dedication to achieve the best possible result for every one of my clients, no matter where they stand. It is the direction you are going that matters most. I have a passion for civil liberties and come from a long family tradition of providing legal representation to criminal defendants.
