Good day
I would like to address concerns I am having with my attorneys office. They were, since early August, to help me get physical custody of my 8year old son. His mother will not return him and has refused to tell me about his whereabouts or school information.
My concern are as follows:
Lack of any sound advice when having phone conferences.
When the attorney Douglas contacted me he would reaffirm to me the complexity of the existing order and that he was confused as to part of the order. I have a court order for full sole legal and physical custody of my son. Meck. court July 2019. I would have questions regarding the location of the defendant more than once in conference he saturated that they had the most accurate locating service however they did not. I have asked whether or not this warranted Ex parte however he would avoid any definite answer and would get angry if i press for something definitive.
Lack of concern with my case.
After looking over the draft of filings a few days and corresponding with paralegal, I receive an ambiguous email from the office about a contempt paper that they received from the court. Due to lack of communication I was unaware that they had filed the paperwork or whatever they are doing. So I contacted the office for status. The attorney called me back and seemed oblivious to what was going on. He stated to me after about 10 mins of back and forth empty question reponse, that he thought that the mother had returned my son to me. I WAS FLOORED. I informed him that was not the situation. That call devolved to him hanging up the phone on me.
Two week ago I requested a copy of the filed contempt order . The response that I got was that the message had been past on to another attorney. I was told that I would have to wait until the attorney recovers from a heart illness to get information or advice concerning my case.
Billing with no substance. They charged me for the initial consultation after stating it was a free 15 min. Other ambiguous charges such as receiving email after i had already sent all information For the consult.
The attorney called and billed me just to inform me that everything was confusing him and that he needed to speak with others in the office about something he got back with me.
Unprofessionalism. Why are they the GPS law group telling me about a sick attorney? How is that my problem? What about the safety of my son?
.After much consideration , because I have already paid fees that you can't get back, I am moving forward and away from the GPS law group. read more
