I would highly recommend using Philip and Susan. So knowledgeable and actually really care about their clients. I wouldn’t look anywhere else!

0 stars. Susan Chopin is currently in her 70s and does not have a paralegal. We hired her for a family law issue and a parental plan change. She had a $5000 retainer which was blown through in 2 months without a single court appearance by her. She had her son show up one time in an effort to consolidate since he was already at the court. He showed up late. We weren't even to mediation yet when we received a breakdown saying we were almost completely through our $5000 retainer. 2 months, a few legal forms, no in person work, and we requested a breakdown of how much was left in the retainer multiple times that were ignored. We would ask direct questions via email and receive 5-6 emails that were unnecessary before an answer came back. Not sure but that seems like a simple way to drain a retainer. We asked many direct questions and kept getting vague or no answers. We would be told deadlines by Susan and would not see the filing done she said would need to be done. When we asked what was going on she said she was waiting on us to inform her on what was the best course to proceed. We would talk and have a firm plan of action and she would not follow through without our guidance ? She is supposed to be the lawyer. We considered staying with them for a very brief second but when we told her we couldn't afford to spend $20,000 on adjusting a parental plan she simply said she would file for withdrawal. If you need a good attorney keep looking. This is not the one for any of you.
I highly recommend the legal services of Chopin and Chopin. We have used their legal firm for multiple cases in a period of 10 years and they are extremely profesional..
