I hired Attorney Robert Burch, Attorney Courtney Shepard (The Law Offices of Burch, Coulston & Shepard, L.L.P.8001 Irvine Center Drive Irvine, CA 92618 Phone: 949-502-4400 ) and Courtney met with me and my mother ONCE in person for any type of in-depth consultation.
Attorney Shepard stated on multiple occasions that she was going to file a motion for my divorce and custody and NEVER did. They then neglected to contact me when they decided not to file the default altogether! When you are fighting for your child- and you are told things are almost over while you are missing months of his life- this is UNACCEPTABLE.
I am know having to fight to recover any remaining part of the retainer and obtain a billing statement.
I work hard, often in excess of 10 hours a day and make nothing near the $300 something an hour Ms. Shepard is making.
It's pretty sorry that someone who claims to be an advocate for families would provide this kind of service.
I would NOT recommend this firm for anyone who seriously wants to take care of their family.
Attorney Robert Burch was also contacted to addrss this matter and did not return calls.
Reported to the California State Bar Association. Discovered there are many complaints against Attorney Robert Burch and the Law Offices of Burch, Coulston & Shepard.
Consumers BEWARE, THEY ARE NOT ADVOCATES FOR YOUR FAMILY. IT IS A SUBTREFUGE. THEY WANT YOUR MONEY FIRST AND RESULTS DO NOT MATTER. THEY GO THROUGH THE MOTIONS, HAVE WAY TOO MANY CLIENTS AND ABSOLUTELY ZERO COMPASSION FOR CLIENTS. THEY SHOULD NOT BE TRUSTED WITH YOUR FAMILY, YOUR LIFE OR YOUR MONEY.
HIGHLY UNETHICAL.
