Smith Haughey Rice & Roegge

My experience with your firm has been pleasant until recently. I have recommended numerous clients to your firm and spoke highly of everyone there. Jay kakaty has refused to respond in a timely manner and then made demands for payment for work that wasn’t done. I asked to meet in person to which he responded “I am terminating our relationship” and “his calendar is full and only for paying customers”. I just wanted to sit down and explain that the work wasn’t done and it is difficult to deal with an attorney who responds every other month. Deeply disappointed in this experience.

Krista Jackson cares about her clients/potential clients. She’s thoughtful and puts in the effort to work things out for the client with her law firm. I look forward to working with this law firm.

Mary Pigorsh made a complete mess of my children’s and my life. I went in to hire her and as soon as I signed and paid the retainer - she passed me off on to Patricia Sheltrown. Mary told me I “could not afford her” (yes, in those words). $65,000 for a horrible divorce that I then had to pay double to another attorney, post divorce, to try and unravel. My ex hired a dishonest attorney here in GR that I used to work for. (Yes, I showed a conflict of interests right away. I was even friends with his assistant. Mary said it was “fine”. No it was not!). Because of what Mary & Patti allowed this unjust attorney to do to my children and I in the divorce, 6 years later - he still tries to beat on us. EVERY single holiday especially. I reached out to Mary’s bosses to tell them what happened and how much I was charged and actually received (there was never any separation of property, which I was told would happen post divorce. What? No, my ex got basically everything). Mary’s bosses did not care. DO NOT USE this firm. Run especially if Mary Pigorsh is mentioned.

Funny !

Been out family lawyer for a while. Very helpful.
