Complaint Review: Seymour Markowitz

I first encountered this lawyer in a divorce in 1989. My ex-wife hired him because of his unscrupulous tactics. She told me this just before she died of cancer. She told me that Seymour suggested that if I didn't receive the notice of the Friend Of The Court hearing, she could ask for $600 a month in support and it would be months before I could appeal the order. It took almost a year. The new order was for $225 a month.

I made the BIG mistake of telling the next wife about him. After maxing out on her lies & accusing me of cheating, I filed for devorce. GUESS WHO she hired! Once again, I have to deal with this idiot. First came the PPO, stating because I owned guns, she felt her life was in danger. There isn't a woman dead or alive, that can say that I have hit or threatened any type of harm to them. Then came the orders....Pay her attorney's fees....prevented from removing personal property from the home....pay her temporary spousal support of $400 per mo (no kids)....my lawyer? He was there. He collected the paperwork.

This doesn't sound too bad, huh? Well consider the fact that I am 65 she is 55. She is in perfect health, I had to stop driving my semi truck because of high blood pressure, abdominal hernia, sleep apnea, and 2 ruptured discs in my lower back. She has a cosmetology license, for over 20 yrs. I have a high school education, she is taking one class towards a masters degree.

Even with these differences, the judge, Arthur J. Lombard, ok'ed what ever this jurk could think of.
