Very unethical firm that pads the hours. Charlie is extremely hostile and created an enormous amount of stress in an already stressful time of life. I was billed $7000 for very little work, for example I was billed almost $2000 to read a 20 page document that did not receive a response. I should have sought a refund, and reported Charlie to the Bar Association, but it did not fit into my life at the time of my turmoil. My case was very extreme and I felt as though Charlie saw an easy way to victimize someone under significant duress. After this I sought other counsel from Daryl Weinman and learned more in 1 hour than I did with Charlie after $7000. Charlie makes you feel as though you are the enemy and comes off with his tough love act as he berates you. His advice was terrible in retrospect when seeking other counsel. Supposedly Charlie Bowes has a reputation for being “overly prepared”, which is lawyer speak for he is a notorious bill padder. STAY AWAY

Always remember that your attorney is NOT your friend, no matter how much they try to act like it while you still have billable hours flowing for them. It's after the billable hours get cut off that you find out the truth.

I can't say enough good things about Micah. I hired him to handle my divorce, as I was very disappointed with my representation (after four months and $10,000, zero progress). Within two weeks, Micah had a date set for mediation. At mediation, Micah was able to negotiate a settlement that went way beyond my hopes and expectations. I swear I went out of mediation skipping. Micah is knowledgeable, efficient, responsive and a fantastic negotiator. You will not find a better lawyer.
