I am writing this complaint letter to lodge a formal complaint against the lawyer whose name is Kevin Rosner. My complaint is that he failed to provide me with a satisfactory service when I hired him for my divorce. My complaints are as follows: He composed his own statement to the court without consulting me and did not let me know why. The statement did not reflect my position. He made unilateral decisions. He received very important documents from the Petitioner and did not share or discuss them with me including the Petitioner's financial statement. As of now, I do not know what other documents he may have. The judge ordered him to send me the Petitioner's financial statement. When he did not send it, I followed up with an email and he accused me of stalking him (I sent one email.) He did not discuss strategy with me so when we went to court, I was shocked at the statements he made. He did not communicate with me in a timely or professional manner. Since he did not discuss strategy with me and knew little about me, He started giving me advice that was not sound. He told me if I didn't have any money, that I should go get a job. I have chronic diseases that do not allow me to do this. He also told me to get a roommate or a new man. He never resolved anything. The situation has caused me financial stress and stress due to having to find another attorney. My family has also been affected as they have been helping me as I am getting divorced. I have lost the money I have paid Mr. Rosner and am having difficulty paying a new attorney. I believe a good resolution would be for Mr. Rosner to return my money to me ($1,500.00.)
