I had a very bad experience with this lawyer. He collected my money and that was the last I heard from him.It turns out I am not the only one. I ve read a few other reviews where he has taken money and did not represent the client. He was unresponsive to any calls . .I finally contacted the office the day before my case to get my things.My ex said he would settle upon agreement b/n the two of us. Of course, Thomas was surprised ...had he called we would be done. But why would he want to settle out of court. Court time is more money in his pocket.I went to court unrepresented.He told me he would give my money(1500$) back, but never returned the money. In fact, his secretary laughed and said , He said you owe him 50 more $ s but he ll let it go. He did not advocate for me or educate me about options. During our consultation he told me to ignore the negative reviews . I thought it was odd but now I understand. This man is not a good person or lawyer. His super layer awards are given by peers not by clients. Consider yourself warned.
