 In so few words, my wife and I are extremely disappointed with Brian Moskowitz. My step-daughter is going through a divorce at the moment after nine years of marriage, and needless-to-say it's a very rough time for her. After a consultation, Moskowitz seemed like a compassionate fellow that is only willing to help a broken family. We got sucked in: hook, line, and sinker. Moskowitz gave me a brief summary of how he charged his clients. Promising my step-daughter justice and what he described as "everything she deserves", Moskowitz charged us an up-front fee of almost $11,000.

It took about six weeks before we got a phone call from Moskowitz saying that he needed another $4,000. Confused and shocked, I demanded to know what the $4,000 was for. To make a long story short, he essentially said that we had depleted the initial $11,000 due to court appearances, making phone calls to him, etc. I'm not going to give any details away regarding our daughter's case, but let's just say we were disappointed. Moskowitz was literally embarassed in the courtroom, as we were shocked with the judgment. My daughter made a phone call to Moskowitz afterward in obvious emotional distress.

Moskowitz, as arrogant as ever, acted like he's Tom Cruise in "A Few Good Men", convinced my daughter into making an appeal. Helpless, she agreed to his instructions that would cost me yet another $6,000. Now $20,000 in the hole, nothing to this point had been accomplished. Phone calls to Moskowitz remained rare, as he charges up to $150 per phone call! These phones calls, might I add, in which he was RUDE and arrogant the entire time, as if he didn't have the time to deal with us. Phone calls in which that we were only left with even more questions!

Finally, I got on the phone with him myself to get things straight. We had several lingering questions, no clue in which direction the case was headed, and I personally wanted to know just exactly my money had gone towards thus far. Once again, acting like Tom Cruise from "A Few Good Men", however sounding more like Rick Moranis from "Ghostbusters 2", (I had even wondered at this point if he was drunk even though it was noon), I had decided to part ways with this clown. He advised it's a "mistake" to part ways with him at this time.

However, that just ensured that I was making the right decision. Brian Moskowitz is a CROOK. Thief, degenerate, and con-artist can all be used to describe this low-life. It cost me over $20,000 to find that out. His self-proclaimed "Best Catch" on his website is an absolute joke. His name should be Saul Goodman from "Breaking Bad". I'm hoping this post will help other struggling families' decisions when hiring an attorney. It's hard to find the help and care you need in this time of struggle, and I promise Brian Moskowitz is NOT the man for the job. Good luck.

 I'm very sorry for the rough time you and your family are going through. Unfortunately, this isn't the first time I've heard such things about Moskowitz. You may want to contact Eddie Stephens of West Palm Beach as he is highly recommended. I do suggest you to read reviews of any attorney prior to hiring them, it always is a big help. Best of luck.
