Critical: Professionalism, Quality, ValueI went to Boyamian Law in hopes of getting my dog back from my soon to be Ex-wife. I had a great meeting with Taline Boyamian initially where she stated that she would get me my dog, spousal support, lawyer fees split, as well as most of my divorce finalized and a DVRO taken care of.I’m from the south and when someone looks you in the eyes, says they will get you something and shakes your hand I generally believe that they will do the job they said they would. I paid Ms. Boyamian 4,000 dollars (retainer) which was all the money I was able to borrow.I told Ms. Boyamian that I was glad she would get me lawyer fees split and alimony because otherwise, I would soon be homeless if I wasn’t able to recoup those fees and get support from my wife.After about a month and a half, I received another set of bills totaling close to another 5,600 more dollars on top of the 4,000 I had already paid her.This firm was aware that I make a yearly income before taxes of just about 50,000 dollars so I don’t understand how she thought I would ever be able to pay her back. She told me that she would be willing to allow me to set up a payment plan paying her 250 a month for the next 23 months but she also knows that my soon to be ex-wife and I racked up a lot of debt moving and paying for our wedding. She knows that I already spend about half my income paying back past debts and would never be able to add her 250 a month. She even told me that since I had so much debt that she suggest I file for bankruptcy but that I wouldn’t be able to file bankruptcy on her lawyer fees. Needless to say, I was never informed that I had reached my retainer and she continued to bill me well over an amount that I could ever afford. I still don’t have my dog, spousal support, lawyer fees split and the work she did on my divorce was so disorganized that I’m going to have to spend more time redoing it then I did helping her set it up in the first place. At this point, I’m unable to hire another lawyer because I gave Ms. Boyamian. all the money I could get so I will probably never see my dog again which was the only real reason I went to get a lawyer in the first place. Her excuse as to why I was being charged more is that she didn’t initially think the case would be this hard to prosecute but the fact is I’m not a lawyer and she shouldn’t have told me she could do something that she couldn’t. If you want a transparent lawyer who makes sure you know what is going on then you might want to pass Ms. Boyamian up and get yourself another attorney. I thought in the beginning that I would be better off getting a lawyer but in the end I wish so badly that I had gotten a few more opinions on my case rather then trusting Boyamian law and its attorneys. :/I went to Boyamian Law in hopes of getting my dog back from my soon to be Ex-wife.
