READ BEFORE HIRING I do not usually go out of my way to defame a company for poor service but I have to act when it arises to this level. If I could give 0 stars, I would. In 2018 Mayer Law firm represented me in a divorce action against my current wife. Subsequently we reconciled but after a year or so refiled. My STBX is beyond narcaccistic and manipulative woman. She persuaded my first wife with whom I share 50/50 placement and custody over our son to file for primary placement and custody in hopes of opening two fronts with which to beat me into submission. Mayer law firm was privy to confidential information and clearly should not be representing my first wife in ANY legal action involving information they were privy to. They failed to perform BASIC and STANDARD practices of performing a conflict of interests check when being retained by my first wife. After presenting them with a letter stating the facts and information, I was asked in their office, well.... You won't waive conflict of interest? To which I politely stated "No I will not" After speaking on the phone, again asking if they intended to remain my ex wife's legal consul, they stated yes. For those thinking of using Mayer Law firm I would ask these questions: 1) If the basic functions of ensuring a potential case does not present clear conflict of interest and breach of confidentiality cannot be performed, how well will your case be handled? 2) After the fact, when "finding" out, willing to ethically violate and continue the case, knowing full well you are in violation of ethical and legal clauses meant to protect clients, continuing because I do not have an attorney to force the issue. ( I have consulted with 5 separate legal malpractice attorneys and EACH and every one has said the moment there are damages with which I can pursue they will take my case, one going as far as to say "If they stay on the case they do not have a brain between their ears" ) 3) If they are willing to ethically violate something to this degree, are they really in your best interest? 4) I have submitted an ethics complaint and have been told I have a very viable ethics violation. Do you want a law firm who violates their own ethics oaths? You are about to spend thousands if not tens of thousands of dollars. Ensure you hire someone that does not violate basic tenants of their profession.
