Said they were #1 CPS attorney in the state- this is a lie. I would NEVER RECOMMEND that anyone hire this firm for any case. When I first met them at their "Ontario office" to put $10,000 retainer in CASH, they didn't even bring me inside. The guy Joey I think his name was, had our meeting sitting on the planter outside of what was supposedly their office. He assured me that my "team of attorneys" would be very experienced in dependency cases. Lies. They gave me the new guy, very apparently. My attorney had NEVER done a CPS case, and it was very obvious to me, the judge and everyone present that my attorney was not in the least bit familiar with the dependency courts. He had absolutely no CPS experience whatsoever, and had never done a case in this county. The judge kept having to correct him and give him direction on how things work. He didn't know how to speak properly in court, or the proper procedures... It was absolutely humiliating, but mostly just so incredibly
heartbreaking. I never stood a chance with this guy representing me. While being a earnest guy with a law degree, and probably trying his best, he was in no way qualified to take my case. The firm made no effort in actually trying to fight for my rights. They spent as few resources as possible- doing the ABSOLUTE BARE MINIMUM just to go through the motions of PRETENDING to fight for my parental rights. They took the $10,000 cash, send me a bill every month, but otherwise have always ignored or avoided my attempts at communication. I didn't deserve the outcome of my case and neither does my daughter. Dre Law is the worst kind of law firm there could be. Taking advantage of a widow trying to keep her only child, rightfully, and using people's vulnerability and my entire life savings as a way to put more money in their pocket. The father of my baby had recently died so I was an easy target, fighting my case alone. Dre Law took everything I had, $10k cash and then thousands more in bills, hardly even pretended to work my case, and still continue to send bills. Lost my case, and the only family I had left, my daughter. Don't let what happened to my daughter and I happen to your family. I'm alone now- with nothing, but Dre Law still wants more money...
