She was able to process my uncontested divorce in 8 months- as there were delays with my ex's lawyer, illness, injuries, and all the things.

She didn't even do her job... all she had to do was make an agreement between 2 people but was being hostile and attacking one person and supporting the other. Oh! Not to mention that she was going to refuse one person photocopies of "evidence" the other person brought even thought she told them she would 100% give it to them but since the other person told her "no don't give it to her." She obeyed them. She eventually ended up giving photocopied of everything when she got called out. Conflict of interest? I think so. Don't go here. Save your time and your money.

Please save yourself the trouble and money and pass on this woman as your Guardian AL. During my…read more3.5 year divorce, Susan earned close to 30k and after months of calls to family, interviews with our children, therapist and doctors,advised the court that my executive X-husband, who travels for business each week, can handle our young child of 14. Even though this child would be left in an apt alone after school each day, left alone in evenings too occasionally, she felt this would be ok. I've been a stay at home mother for over 20 years. I managed and still manage the children's health issues. My youngest son suffers from ADHD and Aspergers and needed his mother and siblings. He told his school therapist he felt forced to chose. The court and their approved GALs are just another money grab. My Xhusband is now the only person with whom my youngest child will speak. He went to visitation and was convinced, by the X that no one but his father loved him? As a result of his issues and his fathers continued manipulation, he has not returned to our home. My son told Susan and his therapist he wanted to remain in the only home he'd ever known with his mom and sister. He'd been going through a tough battle, no one protected my child. His grades have plummeted, his health a very poor and his future possibilities all limited and controlled by his father? My child was happy prior. GALs aren't educated in psychology, this GAL is not. This GAL had no belief that even though I filed to leave my xhusband was because he was abusive to his entire family. He was asked to leave and an order of protection administered. The reports Susan provided to the court were based upon countless hours of phone calls to family members, therapists and the schools. This professional did not properly advocate for my youngest child and left him no protection or support. Susan, it's time to hang up your role as a GAL(guardian)I hope you are a better attorney, then you ever were a child advocate for my son and his future.

He was exceedingly…read moreaggressive in the courtroom fighting for me and has no problem directly attacking a biased judge, biased GAL and opposing counsel. My case has been very unfair and I'm the hands-on type who likes to know what's going on, especially since my daughter's well being is on the line. This meant that I asked a lot of questions about what was going on. He started to take offense to my questions thinking I was criticizing him. This led to our conversations devolving into personal insults. At some point, even though the timing was terrible because I'm approaching a hearing, I had to discharge Doug. If you have a simple case and your daughter's relocation to another state with a narcissistic mother is not what's at stake, Doug likely will do very well for you, if you can afford him.

He went away for family business over thanksgiving. I contacted him the Monday after and he told me he'd contact me the following day. Never heard from him again. No return phone calls. No return emails. Nothing! Since the posting of my ONE STAR review on Thumbtack, Larry Ryan negated my review saying I'm not credible and never a client. You're right I wasn't a client because Brad blew me off! Your office staff blew me off! Larry Ryan why don't you ask Brad to forward the November email and the email after I left my ONE STAR review for your firm that he sent me. He blamed your office office staff for not contacting me. The only contacted active clients and not new or prospective clients. Too bad for you. I had a big job and gave it to someone else. There was pending litigation on behalf of my autistic son. The urgency of my requested was expressly communicated to Brad Weaver in our November phone conversation. Your firms lack of response and communication about Brad's personal issues hindered the progression of my case and pushed it back an additional two months. Communication was all I needed, and I couldn't get that. Maybe instead of lying about a bad review, man up and be accountable for your unprofessional office staff. Word of advice: Look elsewhere for a REPUTABLE private investigator!
