Avis: Not I would not recommend her paid her thousands of dollars to represent me in court and did nothing with my case froze it and had me waiting a year for court once we went to court she had no plan at all. Didn't do an investigation all the evidence I got on my own and she did nothing. Didn't use witnesses or a signed affidavit from the key witness. The witnesses were corrupted and not credible and had information to prove it through cross examination and did not. All she did was refute and a case brief and that was not why I hired her. Didn't even try to prove the intent in court. Before court kept saying she could win on appeal but if she could win on appeal couldn't she win in court? She was also on the Super Lawyer list which has to be fraudulent because her legal skills belong in a city dump. Was never truthful about anything would never answer calls would go straight to fax. Told me she filed a motion to jave my case dismissed for violating the 45 day rule then found out through the transcript she wavered my right. She lost a case to where there was no evidence only testimony and the investigator admitted in court he didn't do an investigation only took everyone's word. Once it was official that my case was lost she tried to get over two thousand more dollars on appeal. I tuned that notion out and hired an attorney competent and professional to represent me. This review is factual nothing held back. I'm also an Army veteran and still serve this country if you want to be represented with proper counsel this attorney is not the one that will provide it. Make sure the proper research is done in selecting an attorney or you will regret hiring one that is incompetent and unprofessional.

Avis: I told my attorney, Joshua Bentley, that my now ex-wife had made filings for a divorce. He then asked me what Department my case was in.

Mr. Bentley then told me [in person] to text him for a referral to a family law attorney. I had to contact him several times over the next week and half to get that referral.

When he finally got back to me, he referred me to Ms. Amini, who I then hired.

Ms. Amini told me that she could not represent me if I did not hire a therapist to prepare me for my divorce. She then referred me to Valerie Houghton.

I was emailed instructions to pay Ms. Houghton only in cash and not to tell anyone. Furthermore, Ms. Houghton stated several times to me that the judge [Honorable James E. Towery] would be angry should I fire either her or Ms. Amini.

I asked Ms. Amini several times about needs for secrecy and cash payments. She never gave me an answer that made any sense.

After paying about $30,000 between the two of them in a span of two months, I fired both of them.

The next hearing Judge Towery vacated all of my hearings without my consent. These hearings included ones pertaining to custody and visitation.

Judge Towery also consistently ruled against me and violated many Rules of Court to my detriment throughout the remaining proceedings.

After the end of my divorce I carefully examined Ms. Houghton's website. She listed the Honorable Towery as a former employer and as a reference.

Furthermore, Ms. Houghton had offered her services to my ex-wife after I fired her.

It has been almost four years since I have last had contact with my children. There is nothing in the record that would indicate that it should be so. In fact, the police report which is the basis for no contact [that I subpoenaed] has been removed from the record against my objections.

I informed Judge Towery of my intent to complain. The next day the record was uploaded into digital format. Many of my pleadings [1/3 of the record] are now missing.

Ms. Houghton's website has also been removed from the internet [www.valeriehoughton.com].

Despite the Honorable Towery's obvious conflict of interest, he has refused to recuse himself. In fact, he has ordered that I not have contact with any of my four children for an additional 5 years. There is a pending complaint against him regarding this matter filed with the Commission on Judicial Performance.

There also also pending complaints against Ms. Amini and Ms. Houghton with the State Bar of California.

I have also filed a Civil Rights case against the Honorable Towery.

Avis: While there are some things I like about this firm, as a client, I am frankly very concerned about the size of their invoices, and the possibility that their invoices have many charges which aren’t legitimate. It’s so difficult to know as a client whether your lawyers’ fees are legit or not. Now I discover that bill-padding apparently has been, and is, a huge problem at Weston Hurd. The Board of Professional Conduct recently found that a Weston Hurd lawyer had grossly overcharged clients, that he acted with “a selfish and dishonest motive”, and that he also engaged in “a pattern of misconduct involving multiple clients.” You can find details about this case here: 2014-0197. Disciplinary Counsel v. Smith, Slip Opinion No. 2017-Ohio-9087. The Weston lawyer was suspended, but if this is part of the culture of Weston Hurd, I’m wondering how many more Weston lawyers are currently cheating their clients with padded bills.
