Mr. Soukup was my attorney when my wife and I divorced, and he was more passive than any family law attorney I had ever met. I hired him from a recommendation, and after seeing how his demeanor (in his office) would serve me well in fighting for issues regarding my son. He is a veteran and spoke well of his career and the military, which gave him more points in my book. So, I hired him to go to bat for me.
Turns out, this guy let the other side walk all over me. This was a few years ago, and as time goes on and I know more people who went through a divorce trial, I am finding out just how good their attorney was and how lousy mine was. That trial established all the rules I must now fight until my child is no longer a minor. This guy is a lukewarm bottom-dweller.
Word to the wise, do not hire James A. Soukup to do anything more than cash your checks and put on a good show in the confines of his office. He's got that routine down.
