This Fairfield CA divorce attorney should be disbarred. He is a crook, a fraud, a thief, an embezzler and a liar. I have proof he recently screwed my dad during a family court action out of close to $60K, and after being paid $25K for his malpractice caliber representation, never finished the case. My father's estate had to finish the Dissolution Judgement and QDROs on our own. I am currently reporting him to various authorities for the following violations: 18 U.S.C. §§ 1341 and 1346, California PENAL CODE §§ 134, 503, 504 & 506 ; California Business & Professions Code (State Bar Act) §§ 6068, 6103, 6106, 6128, 6148, 6211 & 6212; California WELFARE & INST CODE §§ 15610.07, 15610.27, 15610.53; California Rules of Professional Conduct Rules: 3-110(A), 3-700(D)(1), 3-700(D)(2), 4-100(A)&(B) & 4-200(A)&(B). After nearly of two years of over billing my father and dragging out this case only to keep padding his bill, my father died. When I noticed money missing from my fathers trust account from stock sales and asked for an audit - he decided the law firm would forgive the alleged balance due of $8400.00 (after my dad had paid $25K already). When I challenged that balance and insisted upon an audit - the firm admitted to at misplacing least $4500.00 of my father's money -BUT they said since the bill had already been forgiven a week or so before that, they REFUSED to refund even the admitted amount stolen. The nerve!

Glen DeRonde has worked endlessly to solve a difficult situation for me. It has taken hours of his time over an incredibly long period, yet he continued to research, work and do everything possible for me. He has worked to right the wrong that was done, and has succeeded amazingly, inspite of unbelievable obstacles. He and his staff deserve a Standing O. I would and just about did, place my life in his capable hands. He came from an honest, hardworking family, and has continued that tradition admirably!

There is no formula for success, except perhaps an unconditional 

acceptance of life and what it brings. My daughter recently had the opportunity to need the assistance of an attorney. Mr. DeRonde came highly recommended to me by a very wonderful and dear friend, that being said I knew my family was in the best hands possible.  

Mr. DeRonde has done a fantastic job on our case, he has valued my opinion and been very understanding to my needs. Our case is not over with yet but no matter what the outcome is, I do know that Glen DeRonde has treated us like family and has gone above and beyond to make sure that my family is taken care of.  

No one is Perfect but Glen DeRonde comes very close to it. His name is the only name I will remember when someone ask me if I know a good attorney.

I have been an employee of the Law Offices of Glen A. DeRonde since December 2006, and in that time I worked on over thirty documents related to Mr. Bird’s dissolution. As a result, I was in frequent contact with Mr. Bird with whom I developed a friendship over the 18 months that I knew him. To the best of my knowledge, most, if not all, of my interactions with Mr. Bird were of a friendly nature, despite the numerous legal and financial troubles he was facing. In fact, I recall on more than one occasion Mr. Bird telling me anecdotes of his childhood and early adulthood in between discussions or revisions of whatever paperwork he had come in to review. Furthermore, Mr. Bird took the time to prepare us egg rolls to show his appreciation for numerous hours and late nights we spent making sure that his case was given our full attention. Even when Mr. Bird’s health began to deteriorate he made the effort to attend our office Christmas party (escorted by his brother Ray) as one of only a few clients that we felt close enough with to invite. In light of the aforementioned, it is clear to me that Mr. Bird felt completely at ease and appreciative of the work our firm produced on his behalf. 

 

I was deeply saddened to hear that Mr. Bird had passed away. More importantly however, I am saddened by the campaign his two daughters are waging against Mr. DeRonde in an effort to ruin a reputation he has spent thirty years building in this community. Their campaign is desperate, dishonest and at best can only be considered conniving and unscrupulous. It is unfortunate for me to think that the only reason they are making such audacious claims about Mr. DeRonde’s legal integrity is because they were, much to their dismay, left with nothing after Mr. Bird’s passing. It is my belief that Mr. Bird would have expected more from his daughters and would be ashamed if he knew what they were doing and saying about a firm that he no doubt respected.

First off let me start by saying that these accusations to me seem a little far fetched! Look the case up first! 

Glen DeRonde is currently representing me in a Child Custody case and was referred to me 

by numerous people who have done nothing but rave about how professional and attentive this man is. I retained Mr.. DeRonde is hopes of him living up those expectations and to this day I can honestly say he has gone above and beyond for my case. Just as you would expect for any lawyer to do for there client. To sit here and read these crazy and off the wall allegations about someone who is well known in his community and has represented ALOT of people ( who I know personally) is really quite disturbing. You call him a fraud , liar and a thief ??!! He must be one *** of a good fraud, liar and thief then because this man is still practicing has been practicing law for over 30 years and to my knowledge has never been accused of such horrific things in his time. As a matter a fact he has done everything he can to keep the costs for MY case minimal!! You should Google search his name..the only off the wall thing you are going to find are these ridiculous accusations posted by the same person over and over again. Before you drag someone's name through the mud you should do your homework and do a little research while you are at it. There is a right way to handle these sorts of things and its seems to me that if you really thought that this man was what you are trying to say he is, then you wouldn't be posting his name throughout the internet like this. You would be handling it in more of a professional manner.Unfortunately you dont always get what you want and in this case...its seems to me that you didn't get what you wanted! And you say he has NERVE...You have NERVE!

After your sister, Mary Donahue, bad-mouthed Glen DeRonde (who handled my divorce case) while she was doing my hair at her salon, I went home and looked up your dad, Kenneth Bird's, divorce case on-line (thru www.solanocourts.com, Court Connect - Case No. FFL093727), and saw that this attorney filed over 50 documents on your dad's behalf. Sure looks like an awful lot of work was devoted to your dad's case by this gentleman, as he did to my own case. How involved could you have possibly been in this case? The blogs that you have posted in your internet smear campaign indicate that you live in Escondido. How many times did you appear in court or sit by your father during the hearings to give him moral support? What about your sister Mary Donahue? Was she sitting by your dad's side? Nope, I think that you and your sister took an interest in the proceedings after good old dad passed away and the two of you found that he had left no money to either of you. I don't think that I have ever seen such a vicious assault waged upon a person as you and your sister have upon Mr. DeRonde. This man has proved himself to the community to be a good, honest and capable attorney. He has done nothing wrong. He has served this community for decades -- and who are you? What credibility do you have? Who in the world are you people?
