I hired Alan to handle my divorce in a very stressful situation. He was thorough, knowledgeable, and very well prepared. He negotiated a settlement that I am very happy with. I highly recommend Alan!
This lawyer misrepresented himself as having expertise in mental illness and divorce when he did. He put me on a shelf for five months and let me eat up my retainer. He failed to have me provide basic financial documents to my husband's attorney and then lied to the judge about it. He did not get me disability support which I was qualified for. He did not enforce any of the basic restraining laws against my husband. He was impaired in the courtroom. Stay away.
