Don’t Hire!!!
This lawyer should be disbarred. I hired him, and when I didn’t rehire him for the appeal, he threatened to advise the board to rule against me, and they did. He should have been arrested and disbarred for his action below also. https://www.boston25news.com/news/25-investigates-assistant-to-...
Brian Simoneau
Replied last April 24, 2024Nicholas - You hired me to represent you before the Board of Appeal in 2021 and I got your license reinstated. You didn't need to hire me for an appeal because I won your case and you got your license back. In 2023, the Registry suspended your license again and you came to me for help. Since you were a former client, I trusted you and did not require payment in advance. I spent both my time and money on your case. You ignored my calls and emails. You didn’t follow my instructions. When it came time for your hearing, you didn’t provide me with the materials that I had repeatedly requested months in advance. You told me that you were going to represent yourself. My only communication to the Board of Appeal was that I would no longer be representing you. At your BOA hearing, the Registry was represented by a lawyer and you were not. You decided to represent yourself and you apparently lost. I won the case that you hired me for. You did not hire me for the case that you lost.
