I used him to battle costudy for my child, he is clear, strait, honnest, works on "your" interest, advises well, and delivered me what i wanted.
I was told, don't hire the lawyer you like. Hire the lawyer you need. And so I got Eric. Is he perfect? No. But if your soon-to-be-ex is a weaseling scoundrel like mine, you better hire the best or you'll be paying for the longest most painful divorce in history. I've seen it happen. Mine? I took Eric at face value. Did everything he told me to do down to the letter. And he wins. Bottom line. I did not win every battle but we won the war. You don't like him? Fine. Who cares. He's egocentric. That's how he has to be to navigate the waters of the courts. I paid him a fair amount to get my freedom and he did it. Freida is his best asset. Be nice to her. She always watches your back when the paperwork is front and center. Can't focus? She'll keep you in line. Love this team. I'm paid a lot, no doubt. But I paid less than 2 of my friends that hired a "cheaper" attorney but dragged their cases on for years. One is headed to Supreme Court after 8 years. How is that cheap?
Mr. Thosen is one of those attorneys that will charm his way into your heart and the courtroom. However, when the time comes in court that you need an aggressive lawyer, this one is not for you. Also, he neglected to tell me various details of my divorce and in turn I did not receive the settlement I think I deserved. If I would have have been made aware of all the issues, I may not have chosen to go to trial. By the way, even if he spends one minute on your case, he will bill you at 15 minute increments. And they add up fast.
This attorney in the beginning sounds great and he’s very knowledgeable. But he is only interested in billing you as much as you can as he can. He is unprepared at meetings and does nothing to resolve your case. I have a very simple case and it’s cost me over $20,000 so far. No assets no houses no custody nothing and it’s still going on. I would highly recommend not even walking in the door
I hired Eric after going through a very difficult divorce and child custody dispute. I was in need of a compassionate, intelligent and aggressive attorney. Eric failed to represent me properly, dragged out my case to make more money and put me in a worse position then I already was. Believe me, you're better going with a free attorney then use this one!!!!
Where do I even start? I was hoping for an amicable divorce. My then STBE and i were in agreement on most issues. Thorson promised to guide me in that direction when I retained him. However, he did everything he could to stir up animosity and keep the fight going, I suspect to be able to bill me more. I thankfully realized how unethical he was before we got to trial and found new counsel. But the damage had been done.
I hired this attorney for what should of been a very short case and pretty simple. It took over 3 years and here I am dealing with his poor representation. I get people get upset when there case goes wrong but this attorney did things to keep the case going and we ended up going to trial where he was confused, handed me wrong papers to reviews, never actually went over anything for trial. To everyone that reads this !!! Watch the bill !!! Honestly your better going with a free attorney then use this one ! Trust me
I was a cleint of Eric Thorsen, in the first week of the preliminary hearings he advised me to accept an agreement that was extremely detrimental to my case. Eric quit representing me after four months. Four and a half years later I'm still stuck with that initial misrepresentation.
In my situation, as if you put anything in the slightest way negative on this review posting, they wont list it. Mr. Thorsen did not represent my best interests, He did not keep me up to date on my case and made dicissions without discussing them with me. His bill's had other peoples charges on mine and I was billed for things he did not do. I am currently In Supreme Ct. with a misconduct lawsuit against Mr. Thorsen. We will see if this post is allowed, naturally by an attorney.
