Please read before you hire! Post Divorce- I hired this firm to represent me in my divorce case in 2020 and I couldn't be more dissatisfied with their service. I was assured my case was cut and dried and in the end, it was drug out for over 3 years and I lost everything that was important to me. John failed to get 50/50 custody of my child with 2 GAL reports recommending equal shared custody. The attorney fees I incurred here well over $50,000! I never felt like they had my back, nor felt protected or that they even cared about my situation. When I would try to seek guidance or direction, I never seemed to get a direct or clear answer, which will drive your frustration, then you ask more questions, which will cost you more money. The mistakes that were made on most every filing, I would catch, then be double or triple charged for them to correct. It takes John 2-3 longer than what I would consider normal to comprehend details. While meeting with John to discuss my case or in court, Ive watched him fall asleep right in front of me (not exagerating). I witnessed first hand him yell and talk down to his employees and myself included. He will run your case how he sees fit, if you question him, he will ignore you and not take your calls or threated to withdrawl from your case. I was not informed of my options, then felt misled, then stated I was and I chose not to do this or that. All in all, in my experience, this firm is here to drain as much time and money out of you as possible. Do not make the same mistake I did. Attorneys like this will wreck your life, as if your divorce isn't already hard enough. Post Appeal-While John prides himself on his knowledge of the law. I couldnt disagree more. He cost me several hundred thousand in martial asset, because he didn't include them as the law states. This firm cost me my custody battle, hundreds of thousand in assets, my farm, my business, my personal possessions, and years of my life, while I have now spent over $100,000 in attorney fees. I do not recommend this Firm.

He did nothing for me except cause me health issues. Also he gave me another client's information and when I told him I was not confident that he spent $17,000 worth of time on my divorce he actually wanted me to give the evidence of the other client to him. He is worthless as an attorney. I almost died due to his negligence and ended up in the hospital. Also when I brought it to his attention the ex knew the judge and conflict of interest he threatened to fire himself as my attorney. He did nothing to keep me or my children safe. They almost lost their mother due to his negliegence. My best advice is if you hire him, hire him for the opposing party. That is the only way you will get a just and fair representation.

This is the biggest waste of money in my life. After my explanation to him he claimed to be on my side and wanted to take my case. So after the first month I was okay with him and had no issue. Then I got the bill. It started to pile up each month and he was doing less and less. I would pay him a thousand here then there. Then it came time to get dirty and fight and he backed out and told me just to stick with her attorneys proposal. I said no it is not right I want to fight for what is right. It came closer and he kept fighting me on everything. He didn't submit the evidence I had worked for 6 months getting. he didn't submit the proper paper work to the court he didn't even try. It was as if he had never been in a court room or he was really never on my side but there to support them. It was amazingly horrible. He had assured me that he would use the evidence that would have shown the court and judge that they were lying and had no grounds. Just the stuff I did that he assured me was worth it cost over $4000.00. After $8000.00 there was nothing I could do. He actually even threatened to walk out on me the day of the hearing because I was asking him why he didn't do anything he charged me for. Needless to say this guy is a waste of time and money. I could have been in a much better situation if I did it on my own. The judge even told me after the hearing that that the attorney did not go about it the right way and could have prevented a lot of the extra charges if he just would have submitted the documents to the court.
