Hired Attorney 1992-2021Laurie Gaffney is only interested in causing contention and lining her owe pockets. She will turn around and sue her own clients. It happened in our case. Pathetic lawyer.

Hired Attorney 2018Do NOT hire Laurie Gaffney unless you want to lose everything!! Laurie cared more about my son's ex-wife than she did about helping my son. She told him not to make his ex mad. She told him he should just give his ex everything she wanted to keep the peace. She refused to keep him informed so we went weeks with no information. Instead of filing the response he approved she waited weeks until it was almost too late to file. She told him not to make his ex mad and he only discovered she hadn't filed the response he approved because after he made his ex mad she compiled a new one giving literally everything to his ex, including their 18 month old son. He told her she was NOT, under any circumstance, to submit that response and she should submit the one he approved, 2 weeks earlier. I guess because the deadline to respond was that day she decided to ignore his instructions and filed it anyway. She said she was going to get him "liberal visitation" but my son went 3 months without seeing his son because she did nothing, even after many, many phone calls asking when he could see his son. She told him he was not to call his ex under any circumstances. Thankfully, he found and hired a MUCH better lawyer who was able to fix some of the damage she caused. She refused to refund what was left of the retainer when we dumped her. She even padded the bill and when we pointed it out she told us to basically take a flying leap...

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
