This man took my money and didn't even attempt to defend me. He charged me 3k+. I still haven't seen my children, I am being forced to comply while the other part gets away with not following court orders. And after all this. He had the nerve to renounce my case. Told me he would take it back once he got back. And I haven't been called. Going on 3 years of a divorce, if he would have been any good. I would have been divorced 2 years ago. Do not hire him. Find a real lawyer. Not this great value version of one.

Attorney dropped all his cases and stated going on medical leave. I called him before he filed motion to be dismissed as counsel from case as I was at the end of my case which started in Feb 2020 and wanted to finalize everything and file for contempt of court because spouse stopped paying child support and came and got vehicle court granted me but he ignored me and I got the notice he was dropping me. Now funny thing is that was in March 2022 and I just seen him in court on September 27 2022 so how did he retire when he’s still in court. I tried getting my money back but his fees are non refundable but that should be illegal since he never finished performing his services he was contracted to do so that voids the contract. I see if I fired him that he would of kept the money but I didn’t and he’s still practicing so that theft of funds. At this point we all should contact Georgia Law of Board and file a complaint with the BBB.

Terrible experience with him. I thought about divorce and paid for his services, but anytime I had a question as to what to expect or do regarding divorce (1st timer) his only reply was I can’t tell you whether or not you want a divorce. Anyways, I changed my mind and am with my husband working things out and he refuses to refund ANY of the money I paid for his services.Over $2,500, he says it’s a non refundable retainer. If he’s not working or retiring he is no longer retained for services in my mind.
