Unprofessional drunk

The first time I met with Corey in person he invited to me a restaurant at a dock where his boat is , although I thought it strange not to meet at a office I didn’t think too deep into it. The conversation that day ended up leading me to hire him as he told me of all his experience & trial work , he ...was drinking a lot during the meeting who knows wat was true that he said , I was facing several felonies as well as a violation of probation & by no means did I think I wouldn’t have to go to prison I just wanted the best deal. Corey insisted on me going to trial to “show balls” as he put it but I did not want that as I knew I would lose . One time I was waiting for him at court & when I called him he was on his way from another state , I also saw him reprimanded by a judge at one hearing but I was already paying him so I felt I had to stick with him .. after only a few months he had me accept a deal that he didn’t explain to me , I plead guilty to 4 felonies w a ten year suspended sentence after 3 yrs jail , I could have gotten a better deal with a public defender this guys a criminal himself if you ask me

Slime ball (he doesn't deserve a star)

Had Mr. Heiks for 2 criminal cases he told me to plead guilty to 2 Felonies he promised me no more than 2 yrs in prison joke was on me I took 8yrs suspended after 3yrs in prison with 4yrs of probation that looks like a total of 15yrs where did he come up with 2yrs every court date he would constantly... ask me for money after I handed him 4K cash. Complaining that he needed it but he strolls into court with Burberry suits and a custom Bretling watch he deserves to be banned from practing law he is unethical and not worth the money he won't see another dime of the 2k I owe him. Save yourself your money and headache please.
