This is message is an attempt to cease all harassing messages from this point forth. This is a public request for Bob Arnold's office to quit contacting me, effective immediately. I am aware of our court case's result, and I intend to pay at the clerk's office, in full, within the 30 days allotted. Please leave me alone about my reviews and money. EDIT: I WOULD NOT USE BOB ARNOLD FOR CUSTODY HEARINGS! PREVIOUS EDIT: Bob's reply is absurd! I've added my recent lawyer's invoice statement, so Bob can see, compare, and try itemizing. Bob seemed disengaged from the moment we met. But he was kind & pleasant during our initial interaction. Bob told me he was a man of God, and he even bragged on the fact that he will never charge for any billing discrepancy conversation. I should've asked for a list of what he WOULD charge for. His word went out the window quick because while our inaugural meeting lasted 1 hours 10 minutes, I was certain I would only be billed for the hour. Bob stated he rounded down to the nearest 10 minute mark to help his clients. NEGATIVE. Bob billed me for 90 minutes instead. The total number of hours were off by a ridiculous amount of time on the final statement, compared to my calculations. Not only was the final statement never delivered, but I had to request it. That was months after finishing the mediation. Bob had already taken thousands from me. The highlight of my discrepancies was the 4.3 hours billed for our mediation. I was at the mediator's office for maybe 2.5 hours. Bob arrived late and swears the additional time was for standard legal work and procedures. The best way to sum up this unorganization and provide substantial evidence of his incoherence would be to post screenshots of two separate billings I've been sent regarding the final amount due. The first was the original I received in the spring, and the second was delivered to me in August. Bob requested I do an evaluation on him immediately after mediation ended. That was one of his legitimate concerns. He stated in that email from that day the things most important to him: He's a good listener and fought for me- NOT IN MY OPINION. He didn't compromise my goals- MY ENTIRE EXPERIENCE WAS COMPROMISED. That he was honest and fair in billing and prompt in returning calls- I NEVER COULD OBTAIN AN ITEMIZED, DETAILED BILL. BOB WILL RETURN MANY TEXTS AND CALLS, WITH AND WITHOUT CLIENTS PRESENT. IT NEVER FELT PERSONABLE, TO ME, UNLESS IT WAS ABOUT FINANCES. In February 2022, I filed a grievance with the Indiana Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission, requesting an investigation of Bob Arnold, in relation to the inconsistent invoices I had received. It is my firm belief that my balance was current, when considering the work completed by Mr. Arnold's team. I also filed a claim to the Clients' Financial Assistance Fund Committee of the Indiana State Bar Association. In March 2022, Bob sued me for "failure to pay for legal services rendered." I countersued and went through the theatrics of a court hearing in the small town where Bob normally practices, never once having my counterclaim mentioned. Multiple times Bob told lies under oath. His testimony even began with a preposterous tale that he had represented me multiple times, including my divorce hearing. I ONLY had ONE custody case with Bob Arnold as my lawyer. I would HIGHLY recommend staying away from him if you're seeking legal representation in Indiana. I would shop out of state if he was the only lawyer practicing in Indiana. I don't have adequate words nor does this website allow enough characters for me to reiterate how passionately I believe that you're better off not hiring Bob Arnold to represent you. It is in my humble opinion.

While not formally introduced, Robert Arnold served as my boyfriend's attorney in a custody battle…read morein 2019. He did sign a contract and paid his bill except for the sum of $425 because he was billed for hours that did not exist. He tried to get an itemized copy of his bill to see what he was being charged for, but he specifically realized he was being charged for 2 extra hours the day of mediation. On that day, he was charged for 4.3 hours and mediation lasted for roughly 2 hours. Robert Arnold was late and made note of that to his client in text messages. After mediation, he asked his client to review his services on multiple review websites. When his client wrote an honest review of his experience with him, Robert wrote to him saying that he needed to take down his review saying it was slandering his name. He told his client that he would settle out of court for $425 if he removed the reviews. His client refused and Robert served him with a lawsuit for the remaining money, a small claims trial I attended with his client, on March 14, 2022. When we started the trial, his opening statement was that he served as his client's lawyer multiple times in a divorce case. This is false information as his client only hired him the one time and he has never been married. He also stated that the bill has never been changed and his client showed several invoices had been altered. Court found that his client must pay the remaining balance of $525.23 in 30 days and the trial was over. His client paid this on March 23, 2022. Bob Arnold reached out again because he claimed that the information on these reviewing websites is slanderous and costing him business. Robert told his client that he must remove the reviews or he will take him to court again. He has yet to stop harassing his client. Yet there are other people who have had the same experiences, but they are not being sued in the same way. In my opinion, it doesn't seem like it's worth the trouble, money, or stress to hire Bob Arnold as your lawyer.
