By my own admission I am a difficult and demanding client to deal with. I was involved in a contentious divorce where opposing counsel had made things infinitely worse by her inappropriate and unprofessional behavior. I am sure there were many times where I was angry or stressed, and was pretty rough on both he and his staff as a result. His calm and measured demeanor proved invaluable assets when dealing with these situations. At times this actually disturbed me because I felt a divorce attorney should have more of a pit-bull personality. But in hindsight I can see the benefits of his approach. I am pretty headstrong and at times disagreed with his advice, but he did not take it personally nor get argumentative with me. One of my biggest pet peeves are cocky, arrogant attorneys who are condescending and treat anyone without a law degree as if they are idiots. I experienced absolutely none of this in my dealings with this attorney. I am told his greatest strengths emerge when a case actually gets to trial, but mine did not go to trial so I can't really speak to this. I did experience a few minor hiccups with billing problems and document errors, which I wrote off to office temps or low-level staff.

This attorney came highly recommended. However, after several instances of, quite simply, things happening radically different than he said they would, I gave up and found another attorney. The argumentative attitude of the office staff was extremely frustrating as well. Even paying my final bill right now results in a conversation with a woman who is "new" and doesn't know how to do many things.
