Thornborough Smeltz Llp

Come here is you want to get charged 3000 for a 15min sit down with a law student, very incompetent one, and a about 10 emails from the actual lawyer ... which around 3-4 of those are; "Please note that Xxxx will be away from the office from Friday
Xxxx,xx at 4:30 p.m. and will be returning Monday Xxxx,xx. He
will not be checking emails, voicemail messages or any sort of
correspondence during this time. We would ask that you refrain from bringing
any applications forward during this time."

I understand that lawyers need vacation or have family emergencies, but running through our money like this is not acceptable.

The minute your retainer runs out you will not get so much as an email, let alone a phone call. I think if you have the money up front they would do an adequate job but I'm still in the middle of my divorce so the advice given to me might not be good advice! Tammy the family lawyer phoned me and was quite adamant about not doing a thing until money is always up front.

I don't know what has happened with this firm...
I heard good stuff about them, We had to fire Tammy (or disengage her) because of the lack of commitment towards our case. I could write more details, but I'm seriously done dealing with this firm.

I went to Thornborough Smeltz for help with a corporate contract. Not only was the lawyer I met with extremely knowledgeable but also patient with me. I was given excellent legal advice and was treated really well. I would 100% recommend this law firm and will definitely be going back.

I was referred to Thornborough Smeltz through a friend. My experience has to do with the Family side of the law practice. I did have to trust their ability/skill in law and take a step back a few times when I felt my situation was not moving the way I thought it should. I continue to appreciate their services and will use them for other areas besides divorce or child custody issues.
