November 15, 2016: Sadly, I am updating my review here to lower my rating. He had been an incredibly responsive attorney who was on top of things until the trial in June 2016. The only remaining item was a distribution of the IRA. It has been 5 months and we've sent 20+ emails and phone messages with only one returned call 3 months ago.
I understand busy, but that is simply neglectful. Just a returned phone call with some explanation would have made the difference. As it is, there will be tax consequences if this is not settled before the end of the year, and we live in San Diego now so dropping by his office to find out what's going on is not an option.
7/15/2016: A very honest and hardworking family law attorney, which is pretty tough to find in El Dorado county. He is reasonably priced, answers the phone, and gives it to you straight.
It took a year and $65,000 to another attorney who was actually worse than self-representation to find Brad.
He has worked hard, and been up front, and a breath of fresh air in a place even the Bar Association has classified as one of the worst counties in California to find fair representation. read more
