TERRIBLE LAW FIRM!!

WORST LAWYER EVER!!! I was hit by a car 2 years ago. I had a consultation with him, the first time I ever met or seen him and the last. We signed a retainer. I've had 4 surgeries since then. I've only spoke to him 4 times in 2 years. 8 months ago the case was supposed to be settled, which it never w...as. He has been working on vacations, had surgeries and never settled the case, he's too busy. I just received an email from jasmine, his Para legal, stating he put a motion to supreme court in Hackensack to remove himself from my case! No explanation or excuse, out of the blue!! He's not even mad enough to speak to me on the phone. That's 2 years wasted on a non competent lawyer. I would refer him or his law firm to any one.

Thank you for your comments and insight. I do apologize for any miscommunications or feelings towards our firm. With regards to your matter, our office spent significant time seeking to settle your case prior to litigation. However, the Defendant and insurance company did not agree with our assessment with the value of your case or liability. Unfortunately, we cannot force the Defendant or insurance company to settle. We discussed these issues, and you agreed to proceed with litigation due to their insufficient settlement offer. During our representation of you, we always responded to any emails or calls promptly. There have been many more communications with our office than four times. Likewise, during litigation we responded to discovery, produced discovery, and demanded discovery from the Defendant. Thus, we were always working towards a successful outcome of your case. Unfortunately, litigation does take more time than we'd all like. We also invited you to the office to go over your Form discovery responses but also gave you the option to discuss over the phone. You decided to discuss over the phone. We also offered to Uber you to our office to go over the same. Unfortunately, each time we spoke on the phone, the conversation would become unprofessional. As a result, we believe it is in everyone's best interest that you seek new counsel to assist you in your matter. I sincerely wish you the best in the future.

super smart, very easy to talk to, depth of knowledge

Mr. Gonzalez, is very easy to talk to, he ALWAYS has the correct answer. Bankruptcy is so stressful and in my opinion having someone that is easy to talk to is just as important as having a knowledgeable lawyer. Fortunately Mr. Gonzalez is BOTH! Mr. Gonzalez delivers on his promises which builds c...onfidence in the process. Hire Mr. Gonzalez, I am more than happy that I did!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
