Mackey Law Group, P.A.

One of the worst experiences of my life. Hands down do not ask them for anything. Negligent counseling, wrong dates times, getting responses from questions or a call back is like pulling teeth (weeks without answering), false counseling through and through. Lost every case I went to and was dumb enough to keep listening to their counseling. Jorge Martinez and the Mackey Law team's legal license should be revoked. Not only do they take your money but they damage your life in the process. Mackey Law Group's negligence will cost you!

Their reply to my review is inaccurate. I came to them and was assured the the agreement that was signed would be thrown out. After losing that case they continued negligent counseling to the tune of 2 years and tens of thousands of dollars. I demanded action on money owed and instead of filing; I ended up paying more for something that should have been taken care of a year earlier. And there were literally weeks of emails, calls to the office, and left messages without answering.

There were wrong days, times, dates so bad I had to call and confirm before going. Just negligence ALL around.

And don't ever let him tell you he never lost an appeal. Because he lost my appeal even after assuring me it was not a waste of money.

Avoid at all costs unless you enjoy doing your own legal work.

If you are looking for an attorney who will disappear the moment your retainer clears, Mackey is your man. He is full of empty promises during the initial consultation, but once he has your money, the "service" ends.

Here is what you can actually expect:

Zero Communication: They will ignore your emails and calls for weeks, only to resurface when it's time for another retainer.

Disorganization: He showed up to my session with a massive file of paperwork that wasn't even mine. It's clear they don't look at the file until they are walking through the door.

You Are the Paralegal: We ended up doing the majority of the paperwork for on our own family case. He didn't even bother to review the parenting plan to advise on what was in our best interest.

Billing is a Joke: The fees are astronomical for the lack of effort provided. By the third retainer, you realize you're just funding his lifestyle while he has side conversations with opposing counsel to keep the case dragged out for his own benefit.

Total lack of ethics. He will even have people from the office who know nothing about your case "handle" things just to keep the clock ticking.

Do yourself a favor: get every single promise in writing during the consult, or better yet, find a lawyer who actually cares about your family. He dropped my case after making a formal complaint I will have no choice but to take this up with the bar with receipts of all of the delays and mishandling of billing and casework.

If you want a lawyer who will drop you as a client a couple of weeks before trial, after spending thousands, Jose Estigarribia is your go to.
