... a great lawyer knows the clerks, the bailiffs, <everybody> Put another way, review Fran's education and professional affiliations and you will understand why he was referred to me by my previous lawyer. Filling in the back story, I was involved in what became a three-year divorce. My ex- retained counsel, but kept viewing herself as entitled to more and more. I would think the case resolved, but she would change her mind to demand more. Upon hiring her fifth lawyer, she restarted the entire divorce negotiation. My one lawyer had understandably moved onto new cases. He recommended Fran as the guy to get the job done. And Fran did so. He was a gentleman, we were both fair, and he did bring the case to an authoritative conclusion.

I’m currently in the middle of a divorce and Fran was highly recommended. I had a consultation where he tried giving me financial advise on my IRA? I did hire him and sent $5000 check same day.... tried to get in touch with him several times over 3 weeks with no response... he finally called and said he can’t do anything for me until he get paid... after having him check into it he says there was a mix up and his office cashed it 3 weeks ago! After reviewng all specifcs and working on this for 2 months with very little progress he called me to ask these questions.. does your wife work?!, do you have kids and how old?!, did you file for a divorce yet? He also recommended me to get my company appraised for 20k even though I was ok with the other sides offer. A very frustrating experience!
