Divorce is one of the hardest things a person may have to go thru in a lifetime and it’s never easy. But having the Bolton law firm in your corner can make the process bearable. From the moment I first contacted the firm via the website I knew I was in good hands from the atty liaison Dalton. I can’t say enough good things about him he even met me on Christmas Eve for the intake. Made me feel I was going to be ok. My anxiety was through the roof he eased my mind. Then I met my paralegal Sandra Ward she was absolutely awesome and she was available for me via the app or by phone for any need or question that I had. Then there was my atty Ms Shante Henry I knew she was in my corner ready to fight for me and make sure I would be ok no one would be able to take advantage of me. She would see that I would have a good outcome I was able to sleep at night and not be scared of the process going forward she had my welfare in mind. This firm is able to and specializes in complex divorces. If you need a family or Divorce atty Bolton law firm is who I would personally recommend.

I had a positive experience with the attorney in terms of professionalism and the quality of the work provided. The process of preparing my prenuptial agreement was quick and efficient, and I felt comfortable throughout my interaction with the lawyer. However, the billing practices were disappointing and lacked transparency. I paid a $1,500 retainer after being told the work would take only a couple of hours at $350 per hour. The documents were delivered the next day, and I accepted them without requesting any revisions. Despite this, I was charged $1,275 without receiving any detailed invoice or explanation at the time, even though I had requested that information. It took 15 working days for the firm to provide an invoice—well after the documents had been accepted and I had already been billed. This delay gave the impression that the invoice may have been prepared after the fact to justify the charges rather than to clearly document them from the outset. Additionally, my requests for an invoice were not acknowledged, and communication regarding this issue was delayed and insufficient. Clear, timely, and itemized billing should be a basic expectation in professional services. Unfortunately, the lack of transparency and responsiveness around billing overshadows an otherwise positive experience. Because of this, I would hesitate to return to or recommend this firm.

They ended up charging me 15,000.00 in barely 5 months time while failing to give me vital legal advice which was detrimental to the outcome of my custody case. They also charged every single opportunity that they legally could. Sending frivolous text message and charging 15 minutes of time from administrative individuals I hadn’t ever spoken to, despite having already been sent correspondence via 2 other avenues from the paralegal about the same exact topic. They would also send additional unnecessary emails in which they could legally charge 15 minutes of time per email, even if it is a single sentence long. They will charge you every dime they can squeeze out of you. They didn’t keep me well informed of the progress of the case throughout. They pursued a legal document that they knew would be highly unlikely to help my case at all, which charged copious amounts of time from the retainer, but I did not learn that it was likely to be completely unhelpful to my case until in the room with the attorney ON THE DAY OF, during mediation. Their lack of giving me vital and detailed legal advice despite being told extreme detail of the situation on my part and details of the action of the father of my child, put me in a position where I could not go to court to contest the custody situation without having the outcome highly likely to be not only negative for myself but also more unhealthy for my son. The amount of undue stress because of this law firm caused my mental health and physical health to plummet. It immensely exacerbated my health conditions. In addition, it had also caused undue stress in my otherwise healthy relationship. Whenever I tried to get resolution for predatory, unnecessary, or frivolous charges, it was very difficult to get in contact with anyone who would actually help or explain adequately. They also had charged a bit of time on the retainer for trying to get valid explanation and resolution of charges. They shred legal documents (luckily kept electronic) before the case was closed or signed off to withdraw from their “services” and charged time for that as well. I was made aware of this when they sent me yet another invoice for such action. Another slap to the face and what shred of dignity I had left after having already royally messed me over.

When Sandra took over my cases everything went smoothly. Before that I was confused and unsure what would happen next. She made me comfortable and I felt heard.
