My name is Emily and I am the client being personally attacked by Thomas Lynn. Due to him not being happy with both me and my Fiencé, Jeph Burnett, holding him accountable for his extremel unprofessional behavior through the entirety of our relationship after hiring him to help us with our custody case between my ex husband and myself. My fiencé and I hired Lynn together as a team. He spoke with my fiencé before he was even hired. My fiencé was the one funding the bills alongside myself. Our contract may have only had my name on it because the custody case was between my ex and myself but Mr. Lynn knew from the very beginning of my fiencé's Involvement. I personally handled most interactions with Mr. Lynn but due to his constant neglect of my contacting him in regards to constant dangerous actions being done by my ex towards my children to the point where Mr. Lynn lashed out at me accusing me of being "the crazy ex wife", I was emotionally drained not only by the situation of leaving a real abusive relationship and trying to protect my children, but also dealing with yet another attorney who made big claims to being able to help me in my case but neglecting it every time I tried consulting with him in regards to what was happening. Clearly Mr. Lynn did not respect my time or the safety of my children as long as he continued to receive his payments and my fiencé took over the interactions with him in hopes to get important matters handled. I came to Mr. Lynn numerous times with issues only to be ignored or put on the back burner because "I have other cases to handle". I asked my fiencé to start contacting Lynn as I was making no progress with him and he helped as I had asked. Oddly enough when my fiencé would make contact with him, things would get done. Maybe he only takes other men serious I don't know. In the closing issues with my custody case my children and I were moving to Texas and we needed Lynn to finalize and handle the legal paperwork. This would have been much easier if he hadn't lost it. Again my fience had to be the one to stay on top of him constantly to get him to do the simplest of legal tasks. After moving to Texas we assumed our struggles were over until my ex husband with the aid of my own parents broke our legal agreement and interfered with our visitation and child custody agreement and kidnapped my two children hiding them for a week while filing a third case of false child abuse and neglect with CPS. We made contact with Lynn for legal help because it was a very dangerous and traumatizing situation for my two boys and we needed help right away. After making contact with Lynn it became clear to me that he had been in touch with my parents who had contacted him to get information about me and he obliged. Listening to their insane made up falsehoods and rederic to try and get help in taking my children from me, under false abuse charges filed with CPS that have since been disproved and later dropped after my ex husband faced domestic abuse charges from his second wife wife which were real issuesihe needed to handle. Lynn emailed me trying to be involved with the case as my fiencé and I drove to Oklahoma courts to get my children back. I had informed Lynn thank you but we were going a different direction after he had made it clear he was in contact with my parents who were involved with my ex trying to frame us with false charges and take my children, and I did not feel safe or comfortable with things he was saying to me that came directly from my own mother's made up delusions. It was clear he was involved with the other party of the case and continued to take part in their harassment towards me using the same claims my parents and ex husband were using. Lynn sent me an email claiming I was being abused by my fiencé and conveyed the same ideas my parents had been making up against us and I was shocked he would disclose such things making it obvious of his involvement with the other party. He can not be trusted with such important life changing matters. He helps abusers continue to abuse.

I hired him due to a custody battle I was going through. He is very reasonable on his pricing and willing to help anyway he can with the pricing. He won me custody of my son. Hes great with letting you know when your court dates and he was always there on time. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

This "lawyer" promised us the world when hiring him, but immediately showed his lacking of intent. We considered firing him, several times. We would send over paperwork, follow his instructions, then be told to do something completely different. He would make promises only to find out months later he had not only not filed paperwork (that I had to get signed because he refused to attempt any locating of the other party) but had lost the paperwork entirely.
Now, months later and the other party is causing issues and the paperwork Mr. Lynn provided doesn't clarify enough to enforce our agreement. As a result our children were taken from us for several days until we could get in front of a judge. We contacted Mr. Lynn when the other party kidnapped our children and he decided to belittle and demean the childrens mother, his client. When she finally informed him that we were going another direction and with another attorney he informed her that he had conversations with her mother, about his clients personal relationships. Then when he would not stop harassing her about hiring him he then started to make accusations about the childrens mother being weak and abused. He boasted about his work with women and that he knows abuse and that he was fearful for her well being.
ALL unfounded, ALL completely inappropriate, and ALL well over a month after being told he was no longer representing us. His attempt to belittle the childrens mother, his client, even after being fired, is disgusting and I hope anyone considering hiring him reads this and thinks twice.,

I have dealt with Attorney Neil as a third party advocate from a national level stance. I have found him to be diligent and knowledgeable in respects to DHS. I have also KNOWN him to fight aggressively when the NEED arises. All attorneys dont need to come aggressive unless it calls for it. And at times" it calles for it and Attorney Neil meet the challenge with grace and professionalism. Which is what its about. I would love to usher him into advocating for us to open the doors to allow out of state attorneys in. But for now.....he does a great job.
