Rude and never answered my question.
Ok, so their whole response was about me taking action about it which I never once said I wanted to and specifically said "JUST CURIOUS if this is legal". They should also focus on the actual question I asked (which you never answered) instead of something else you thought of an answer to. Also, they...
I am sorry that you were disappointed with my answer to your question. I think you missed the point of what I said. Please review it again and you will see that I did, in fact, answer your question. I just don't believe that you got the answer you were looking for.

Terrible advice
I posted a question and he answered it by saying I shouldn’t seek out advice from strangers on the Internet; ie attorneys on this site! Said I should ask my lawyer. I’m obviously on here looking for a second opinion and to possibly hire a different lawyer! I guess he doesn’t want any new clients. He’...
You're right - I don't want any new clients, and I'm not looking for any on this site. I'm doing this for free, to try to help people who have questions. And while you're certainly entitled to a second opinion if you want one, it would be a very bad idea to take advice about pleading in a criminal case from a website like this one. This site exists to answer people's general questions about legal issues or to get some advice about how to start dealing with a legal problem. No reputable attorney should even try to answer your question, "Should I plead or go to trial?" without spending time with you, examining all the evidence, and negotiating with the prosecutor involved. So I'm sorry if you didn't appreciate my answer, and maybe I could have worded it differently, but I stand by it in saying that if you don't trust the advice that your court-appointed attorney has given you, then perhaps you should hire a new attorney; but you should not be taking advice from people who read a summary of your case for 30 seconds and then give you an answer. Your criminal record is more important than that.

Bad review
Edward J Rozmiarek won't let me sue my teacher for not letting me drink water. In the nicest way possible I think you should fire him.
I think this one speaks for itself. I'm not too worried.

Please place concider another lawyer
Rude, not helpful, dismissive when I had a consultation, said I would never in a million years have a chance with my case, however I went with another lawyer and it was a success. I should have done more research on this man before having a consultation, but a simple google search of his name provide...
We never had a consultation and I never told anybody that they "would never in a million years have a chance." I don't know who this person is or what this review is about.

He claims my case isn’t real
He told me that the school stuff doesn’t have to provide video even though the FERFPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) allows you then skipped parts of my story and defended the party I’m going against.
Asking us a question here is not meant to be a contest about trying to make us agree with you. You asked a question and I gave you my legal opinion. I'm sorry if you didn't like my opinion about your case, but I'm afraid that doesn't make me wrong. I did suggest that, if you wish, you are certainly free to find an attorney with a different opinion who would want to take your case. In fact, if you find someone, I'd be happy to hear about it.
