Sadly, this magistrate does not represent the legal community in a positive light. His tone deaf questions and responses to the minorities in his courtroom should be investigated. He does not allow anyone the opportunity to speak or verbalize any concerns. They are not allowed to ask for clarification because he yells at them and reprimands them like children. I believe he needs anger management and should not be a magistrate on the bench.

I was very u professional. Talking to adults like if I'm his wife,kid, or dog. This person has no respect for ppl. Then when you talk to him in the same manner he gets upset. He's like a 5 year old child that has to have his way. He needs to be removed from being a judge. Matter of fact even barred from being in law all together. He is a self-centered person only focus on tormenting people for no reason there's no need to talk to anyone the way he did. And I'm quite sure is a lot more people who will write this and say this about this guy he needs to be investigated. Put somebody in the political passion do realize the fathers of today are not the fathers of 70 years ago please understand that us Father's love our children nowadays this is why I have custody of my son and fought for custody of my son and got it. Please do something about this man he should no longer be in the judge position at all he's killing people's lives cuz he has an attitude. I had to hang up the phone on him I just couldn't take it anymore

If misogyny and condescension had a face, this judge would be on the poster. As a woman, he made me feel like I was too low on the food chain for him to explain some things to me in layman's terms. Mind you, I'm also an immigrant and the accent is heard. He yells. A lot. Makes inappropriate comments. Constantly. One of them was regarding my intellect because apparently, I should know more about the court system and legal procedures than people who get paid to do it. After another comment he made regarding one of my questions for a clarification (note: comment, not response), he turned to his secretary and remarked that it was off the record. So yes, some self-awareness is there but only to protect himself, not a child or a mother who is both a bread-winner and primary childcare provider. Every time we have a hearing, I feel like I am splashed with a bucket of undeserved hate. I know it's on him but still.

i had the displeasure of being in his courtroom for three years or so (2016-2019). He never took anything i said into account, and the child support amount of $1349, for one child, was outrageous I petitioned for a modification, and he put me out of the courtroom because i became enraged, at his pompous behavior. I have worked in the legal field since 21, I am college educated, and will not allow to disrespect me. i wrote a two page letter to the Chief Judge seeking to have m case transferred to a more partial and fair Judge, because on tow occasions, our conversations became heated, but unfortunately, that petition was denied. Finally, in 2019, I had my case terminated because i reconciled with the mother of my child.

First time in family court and I was over the phone , he kept throwing all these directives and legal terminology around all at once I was confused and asked questions to get clarity , he yelled at me at the top of his lungs , I felt he was either racist or misogynistic, after he screamed he continued to chastise me and humiliated me , I didn’t know if you studied law and moved up in your position as a judge you have the right to treat people like garbage that are being respectful , I’ve never spoken to like that in my life , what interesting is after he looked at my documentation and realized I was a director at a very prestigious church and my salary was pretty good he was still mean but his toned it down and allowed me to ask questions , I called family court to ask about the process to request a new judge was told I can’t I said even if I felt like he was being racist or misogynistic, the clerk said he’s not racist she believes she was around when he spoke to me and than had the nerve to ask me if I’m sure I knew the definitions , I know how that man made me feel and it was unethical , I have 3 kids same dad I waited until the the oldest was 20 to file because I didn’t want to deal with court and I’m so discouraged I did t know it was this bad , I’m not going to the return date , I’ll take care of my kids and deal with what there father gives me , I can’t explain the way I felt , like I was a criminal in criminal court .

This man shouldn't be in this position, he is not looking at the facts, I have been rejected twice by him even though I had solid supporting docs. He doesn't care about people's health and their life problems. he should be fired !!!
