Robert Arthur Mintz

Mr. Robert Mintz, a lawyer from Newark, NJ was retained for services. Due to my delicate emotional state at the time he made statements as "he knows people and would make it go away" to get my business and have me sign the retainer. During the process of next few years, he did not appear to know th...e facts straight, would rely on his junior counsel to update him on the case. He would try to schedule frequent office appointments with no specifics to discuss (only for the sole purpose to bill client) and only for general small talk. After charging $130,000 and when I could not afford to pay him anymore he abandoned and dropped me from the case. He took advantage of my emotional distress and when I had difficulty paying him more, he would repeat phrases like, "you need to keep in mind, I will be keeping you out of jail". He did not care about me or the facts of my case, he simply wanted all my money. In my opinion all his billing was inappropriate (e.g billed for having lunch with his junior lawyer.... apparently he discussed my case....... really!!). I would never recommend him as a lawyer.
