Child Custody

Hired Attorney

I hired Burt Sallinger to represent me in a child custody case, but unfortunately, I found his services to be unsatisfactory. He consistently spelled my name incorrectly in court filings and did not correct the errors when brought to his attention. He also conveyed messages to the defendant's attorney inaccurately on multiple occasions. Mr. Sallinger was disrespectful and failed to provide clear explanations of the legal process. When I asked questions about child support to understand my rights better, his response was dismissive and unhelpful. He refused to advocate for increased custody time as I requested, initially providing no reason, and later claiming the Friend of the Court wanted the child to be with the mother longer. There were billing issues as well, with Mr. Sallinger calling me directly for payment when my company had already paid him. His administrative assistant was also rude and unprofessional during phone calls. I had more to write, but there is a character limit.

Would not recommend. Worked with him for a year before he abruptly dropped me without following proper processes and left me scrambling to obtain new counsel to fix errors and issues that only happened due to Mr. Salinger's dismissive attitude. I was continuously gaslit and minimized while my case received minimal amounts of his effort or attention - even frequently referring to myself and parties involved into the case by the wrong names. Unprofessional, doesn't mute phone calls and allowed me to hear him and opposing counsel talking negatively and using foul language while speaking about FOC employees and even his own employees as well. l'a stay away - especially if it's for something unforgivable like child custody. Bad gut feeling on initial contact? Trust it.
