Andrew M Amendola

If I went on Avvo to check Attorney Amendola out I would of steered cleared of him. I came to him with a lawsuit in 2010 and met with him at his office and he never gave me a copy of our agreement which was my 1st mistake. Then I fired him after I learned from Avvo.com that he has been reprimanded an...d suspended multiple times. I kept up looking at my lawsuit and he still was taken it on when I checked my case in New Britain Courthouse. I then left him a message with a screenshot and a copy of the letter that stated he was fired. After about a year the lawsuit was about to be thrown out so I called him and spoke with him and told him to finish the rest of the lawsuit and I didn’t want to deal with any funny stuff. He called me and said their was an offer of $4200.00 dollars for me which he didn’t tell me the entire amount. I then needed the money so I said ok. He sent papers over to me that I signed saying I would receive $4200.00 dollars. He then said over the phone that I could only get 2 grand of this money and he would explain later. Which he never did. He called me out of the blue and told me to meet me at his bank and he would give $2,000 dollars which I thought was odd since he didn’t show me the full amount he received from the insurance company but I believed him because he was the attorney and I was desperate for money to pay bills. I met him at his bank and then went in with my brother and him and he wrote 2 checks from him to me and he had me sign them which came out to $2,000.00 dollars. After speaking with other lawyers I began to send him emails that I have kept and printed in case anything ever came up. I told him he needed to give me the other $2,200.00 dollars unless he can tell me why he kept the money and what he paid with the money for. He aleways say he would never steal money from a client then I brought up he was suspended and reprimanded on Avvo multiple times and I wanted my money or I was gonna report him. After 20 Something messages and I told him I would never stop calling and messaging him unless he gave me the rest of my lawsuit which I ask him for copies of which he would not give me so aI said I started the process to report him and told him was it worth $2,200.00 dollars for his license and I told him I have kept every email that I sent and he replied. He then told me after 6 months of doing sending him emails and multiple calls which he would never answer and have another person call me to ask me to come in then I would get an email saying that he was going out of town that day. Figures right. I written him an email about the case and how he made me meet him at his bank and no other lawyer would do that and also brought up the fact that I didn’t get or see any paperwork stating the money he received from the opposing attorney for the insurance company and I needed to see it all or I was going to file with the grievance committee. Two days later he sent an email stating he was going to send the rest of my money which was $2,500.00 dollars and I did receive this money but never knew the exact amount we received from the insurance company. I would never ever use this attorney for any type of lawsuit. After he sent the money I have never spoke to him again. I half a 3 inch stack of emails from me to him and his responses which he never will actually say anything incriminating but I not knowing how this process works he took full advantage of me. I finally was able to receive this money through a bankers check which I made copies of it since I couldn’t make copies of the checks he wrote at his bank which was 2 of them one for $1200.00 and the other for $800.00 dollars when the lawsuit said that I was to receive $4,500.00 dollars. Never ever use this lawyer unless you want to go through what I did. Read his Avvo profile first and you will see what he is about. Again his name is Adam Amendola which has an office in East Haven,CT.

I wish to recommend Attorney Amendola because he was kind, compassionate and easy to understand, he answered all my questions about the legal documents I needed to have him prepare for me, his fee was very reasonable compared to what many of my friends paid for the same legal documents I had done. Wh...en I called his office he answered my calls promptly. I would absolutely use him again if I should ever need any legal advise or representation.
