Stay away!!! He is nice, personal but not competent. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt and think "everyone makes mistakes", but he has caused irreparable damage for our family that can't be undone that we are still paying the price for. So all I can do at this point is warn the public so they wont fall prey to incompetency when they are vulnerable like we were. IF I WERE NOT TELLING THE TRUTH I WOULD NOT TAKE THIS MUCH TIME OUT OF MY DAY TO WRITE THIS LONG REVIEW. This is personal to tell, but if it will help someone else avoid the trouble we had I will gladly share what happened. We had to do a bankruptcy due to medical bills. My child was sick and had to go to Mayo Clinic repeatedly. We tried everything to avoid bankruptcy, but we couldn't avoid it. We hired this attorney in good faith that we could just get this over with and put this behind us. Nope we are still paying the price for his incompetency. We asked him to reaffirm our vehicles and our house and what did he do??? HE GOT THEM DISCHARGED in the bankruptcy when they were supposed to be reaffirmed.. That was a permanent mistake that cannot be easily undone with out further hardship. I honestly tried to let that go and just call it "rotten luck", but that decision is still causing new problems for us that will not get better for 2 years! Luckily I believe in a God that is bigger and can handle this. Thankfully we can still live in the house as long as we make payments, so we are not homeless. As far as the vehicles go, because my husband's income is high, we did get financed for 2 new vehicles at payments that wont fully break us, but I think if we had a lower income we wouldn't have been so fortunate... Next... This attorney has zero organization and he drug his feet on getting us a hearing for a year after we paid him. That means the longer that he drug his feet on a hearing, the longer we had to wait to start rebuilding financially.. We tried to be patient, but eventually that got old. He wouldn't return our calls intended to inquire about the status of when our court hearing would be. FYI we were afraid of making him mad at us so we wouldn't call repeatedly, but after months would pass, we would call for an update with no call back for weeks. When he would finally follow up and call us back he would make up excuses and say that it's taking a long time to get hearings in Toledo, which was not true. My friend went through another attorney in the area for the same thing and got right in for a hearing. The difference was the attorney. He would say "I'll send you an email or a link to this fill this out and we can get you your hearing.." and weeks would go by no email. Call the office again. NO call back of course. There are so many other issues that came up that I do not have the time to go into, but please believe every bad review left on this, it's exactly what happened to us. I have no idea how he is getting any positive reviews. I am guessing they are his friends reviewing him. That's only thing I can guess. Or that's he's been educated in law and has been able to avoid the consequences that he deserves. I do believe that it will catch up to him eventually, but for now be warned. He hurts peoples lives and does not advocate for his clients. Less This review is from a person who hired

Ian is hands down one of the best, I am located in Florida and he has helped me with multiple things with my kids custody and other things. He’s very professional and will work with you in any way that he can. Thank you for your excellent professional services every single time!
