Susan has been the biggest help in my navigation of the legal system; she is patient,…read moreknowledgeable, and a great communicator. I reached out to her after 11 years to request her representation for an expungement and now recently, for help gathering old documents I needed for my new position, and she went above and beyond. Even after over a decade, she remembered my case and took the time to track everything down quickly and thoroughly. I'm incredibly grateful for her continued support and professionalism. If you're looking for someone who's not only excellent at what they do but genuinely cares, she's the one you want in your corner for sure.

Mr. McHugh is a lawyer. Just not a very helpful one…read more Please consider the following questions before allowing Mr. McHugh to take your money and represent you. Would you like a lawyer that: Advocates for you? Communicates with you? Possesses a sense of urgency? Instills a sense of reassurance or partnership with you? Takes notes regarding your case and then actually refers to them in the future? Makes eye contact with you? Remembers your name? If you answer "Yes" to any of the above questions, then Mr. McHugh is not the lawyer for you. Instead, if you would like a lawyer that: Starts off your first consultation by saying: "I don't mean to insult your intelligence..." and then does exactly that. Makes you feel like a simpleton because YOU don't understand the law or the intricacies of the court. Requires continual hand-holding, follow-up, and prompting from you for any action to be taken on your behalf. Does not respond in a timely manner to your calls, voicemails, or emails. Simply forwards emails to you from the court or the opposing counsel with no explanatory comment or additional context. Forces the opposing counsel to write a hardcopy letter to your lawyer that starts with: "I have been trying to reach you. Please give me a call." Just to get a response and discuss terms. When confronted, admits that his communications with you have not been "up to par" and yet is no more proactive or transparent in future interactions. If you answered "Yes" to any of these questions, then congratulations! Mr. McHugh is your kind of lawyer. If you retain Mr. McHugh, expect to pay full price for less than full service. You will be left in the dark and then get billed for doing your own case management and communication. Mr. McHugh failed to put forth even the minimum expected effort for a retained attorney. At no time in handling my case did he proactively reach out to me with information, options, or communications to bring my case to a timely resolution. In every interaction it was up to me to initiate communication or prompt him to take action in contacting opposing counsel or continually remind him to ensure key elements I desired were included in the iterative drafts of court documents. The gut-wrenching process of a divorce or custody dispute is draining and comes at a high emotional cost. Paying for an attorney that is distant, disengaged, and unresponsive only compounds the cost. Had Mr. McHugh expended half the effort on my behalf that I spent on writing this online review, I would have avoided a great deal of unnecessary anxiety, stress, and fees. Save yourself the trouble, frustration, and headache of my experience. Keep searching and find a helpful and committed lawyer to represent you.

Elizabeth Latimer represented a friend awhile back for a crime they were accused of, but did not…read morecommit. The friend had never been in any kind of trouble and swore innocence. Unfortunately, Ms. Latimer did not believe that, and due to that she did a terrible job of representing this person. She actually accused the friend of lying to her! I attended an early meeting with this attorney at my friend's request, and my gut feeling even then was that she would do a lousy job. And she certainly did. If you are in a serious situation and want a good attorney, you'd be wise to look elsewhere.

He said he believed that I didn't do it but a Facebook post said deferent I went to court for 2 years with him he just wanted me to take a bullshit, plea witch was a felony charge. I miss court one time In 2 years just a mix up of dates on my part. He never called me to be like hey you haven't missed court ever in 2 almost 3 years is something going on.!? You would think that's what your attorney would do. Instead, he waited until after 4 o'clock when I was on the 830 calendar could've been there for the 1 o'clock calendar to tell me that I was going to jail nothing that he could do about it. Nothing I could do about it I was going to jail I might as well turn myself in. I have never been in trouble in my life. I've never been arrested. I've never been to jail. I was terrified. He was laughing at the fact that I was crying. I went ahead and hired another attorney. The case was closed within a month after almost 3 years of going to court with this joke of a lawyer, he should be disbarred. He's very close with the district attorneys office as well. Wouldn't trust him with my life or anyone else's. all around horrible person in general. don't know if I can leave zero stars so I'm gonna leave one.
