Complaint Review: Attorney Frank Deslauriers

I really hate doing this but there is an attorney in Tipton County that must be reported. I am doing this not for myself but because this guy is a longtime attorney in Tipton County, many people make the mistake of using this guy. I am referring to attorney Frank Deslauriers of Covington. 

Here is my own experience. I went through a divorce with my exwife. While on the stand, Frank Deslauriers told the judge many things that were flat out lies. When I provided PROOF and showed the judge not only was he not reprimanded whatsoever, he continued to lie. Let me get this straight, a client can be charged with perjury if they blatantly lie but attorneys can say whatever. This guy has a reputation as probably the biggest liar in Tipton County.

He told not only lies about me, but our two children and trashed my entire family, yet when I offered a rebuttal he began a character assault of epic proportions. In particular he was harsh on my oldest son who did get in some trouble a year or two ago at school UNDER HIS MOTHER'S SUPERVISION. Somehow he managed to blame me despite the fact my son and daughter were both living with their mother. I am particularly appalled because Frank Deslauriers often serves as a judge for juvenile court so he was familiar with my child who is not a bad kid. Talk about a conflict of interest.

He lied about several things in court including some things said in two previous mediations. Even with some documentation he continued his string of lies with no reprimand. As he continued to lie, I made eye contact with my exwife who smiled from ear to ear. She knew what was going on.

This man has no scruples whatsoever. After court, I was talking to my attorney and a friend of mine (Female) walked past Deslauriers who was standing outside the court room in the hall. Deslauriers made a deragatory comment toward her and she came back at him. He commented "good thing you are a woman." I don't know what exactly that meant but it came across as a threat in my view. However, these ambulance chasers apparently have a right to say what they want particularly this guy, who has a reputation as not being afraid to break any law necessary to win a case.

I will put it this way. My sister is friends with his secretary (I am sure he doesn't know that but the fact my sister knows about Deslauriers is one of the reasons I didn't and would never use him myself. She knows way too much) and the secretary complained she didn't know what she was going to be able to do for Christmas (This was in December) because she hadn't been paid in weeks because "his clients aren't paying" Yet he went on a vacation himself for several weeks.

If you go against him in court, warning! The truth does not matter. He is going to lie, cheat, set you up, you name it and because he is one of the "good old boys" he can get away with it. I felt sorry for my attorney who is a fairly young female. She just shook her head and mumbled under her breath "wonder if I will be afforded the same opportunity to lie through my teeth."
