Incompetent Law Firm

I don't even know where to begin with this "piece of work" who is Jorge Moura the most incompetent attorney I have ever experienced! I will start out by saying that I trusted this guy because I called Lagana & Associates in Lawrence Ma. and they put Moura on the phone. I will start out by saying, th...is guy got me good! In fact, so good, I thought I was on "Candid Camera!" Absolutely worst communication I have ever experienced with any attorney which ultimately cost me a lot of money in travel expenses because of what he advised me to do! Then, weeks went by of ignored emails and phone messages, while the clock was ticking with a sensitive matter concerning my Mom and elder services. Finally after calling the Lagana & Associates office (this is the only number I have for him), I informed them that I need him to call me TODAY. It was less than 20 minutes after that call that I finally received an email from him saying that he has decided not to represent me. I was like, "are you kidding me, am I being punked?" This was especially concerning to me because right after he got my permission to represent me, he used that to gather private information from an ongoing investigation, and THEN ignored me for 2 weeks! Anyway, needless to say, my complaints will not stop here. I am 56 years old and have used many lawyers throughout my life and have not always been happy with their services but let me tell you, "this guy takes the cake!!!" I am completely baffled that he is even a real attorney!

seller of dreams

If you are ever recommended to Mr. Lagana run fast. He will sell you dreams and promises that he can not make come true. He is very rude and unprofessional in ever manner. He took our money and didn't defend my husband at all. Well we fired him for lack of communication and failure to file paperwork.... He is a snake and we got bit.

A ball of incompetent worker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I first hired this lawyer thinking he knew his work when it came to immigration, but it became apparent over the course of several months that he was incompeted in every aspect of this field. He was charging monies for applications when there was no money required to file for certain applications .... And then he becomes loud and indignant with you if you don't pay on time or if your wanting another week to pay him the money when he wants it, along the way he brings in his goon (old spanish woman that works there) that thinks she knows the law when she doesn't. She is a pathetic beligerent worker that knows nothing about nothing like her boss!!!!!! Please stay as far away as possible and save yourself precious time and large amounts of money.

Same story different client

I am an American citizen married to a Brazilian man. Like all the other reviews, I have had the same experience. Alot of money is paid and no service is provided. If there is any warning I can provide you and you do choose to go with this lawyer, make sure that you have a detailed account of every...thing the fixed fee covers. Because at the end when it is all said and done and he provides nothing for you, he will take your money.

taken for a ride too ....

Same thing happened to us... We paid Mr. Lagana alot of $ and he did nothing for us. He will not return our calls after cashing our checks of course. We would pursue him in court if we were able.
