Travis J Tormey

To; Travis J. Tormey, and viewers My notion of Travis handling my case and not delegated the case to his workers were not honored. I selected Travis because what I read about him, his videos speaking on how he handled previous cases, and his overall duration in his field. Evidence attained outside... the guidelines of the law were leveraged against me thus crippling a favorable outcome in my favor. Motions were not exercised nor advocated in my defense a DUI without even a BAC level in the officers’ defense. I feel taken advantage of by prosecutor and even worse Travis firm because if Travis showed up to court and not his associate who I never met personally nor seen on any of his marketing and/or in Travis videos appeared to court. I hired Travis J. Tormey to represent me and not your help. Travis helper did not explain the cost of the 3yr surcharge I would be facing. The point is even if the same results were given to me, I would have preferred to go down in my terms, knowing every tactic was used to get me out of this jam. Travis you should have appeared in court with me I hired you not your HELP. If you really care, if you still hold the fire from when you took on your first case reach out to reverse the judgement its passed the 20 days but you probably don't care you have your money already.

Know who you're hiring. Travis tormey answered the phone when I called him and made me believe he would be the one fighting my case. I was pulled over for multiple offenses including dwi. He told me my case would be good for a trial as I blew very low .08 and I denied a sobriety test. The cop got me ...out out the car as he said he would arrest me for a disorderly person offense. So I hired Travis. Low and behold he gives my case to an associate. Now I didn't find out until my first court date, it was one of his associates.....no one talked it over with me. You're paying this firm and they don't have the decency to tell you who to expect . It's unacceptable to me. For a few months i felt like I was wasting my time going to court back and forth as they didn't have evidence, but but finally got it in February after this situation happened in September. I had wanted to hire an expert witness. I had called other lawyers who agreed with a breath test that low it should have been done. I felt like this law firm just wanted to cut a deal. It should have been further investigated. To this day I still think I could have done better with a different firm. Please think before you hire this firm!

After initially speaking directly to Travis Tormey on the phone I was confident in using his law firm for my traffic violation, he expressed how well known himself and his wife were in the court I needed to appear in. He talked about how extensive his representation would be. this changed quickly... after payment was made to retain him. there were 30 days between retaining him and my court date. I made multiple contact attempts to the law firm and had no opportunity to meet my attorney to review my case prior to my court date. When my court date came, to my surprise, Travis did not show up but someone else from the law firm did. This was not who I was under the impression was representing me. This was the first time I was able to speak to anyone in detail about my case and that was less than an hour before I needed to see the judge. The attorney from the law firm that showed up was nice and tried to be helpful but when I was asking questions this individual was actually googling the answers on their phone. I could have done that! I understand hiring an attorney does not guarantee a specific outcome and I accept the penalties for my traffic infraction but for the price I paid this law firm I would have expected to at least be able to meet with the attorney prior to the court date. I was then advised to plead guilty which I did. I would consider using another law firm not because Travis Tormey did anything wrong but the service was poor and honestly when you are investing thousands of dollars to retain an attorney you'd expect more than having questions answered by google and have the ability to meet atleast one time with the attorney. Seemed more like I paid to just be able to say I had an attorney. I can't say I would have had a different outcome with a different attorney but I can say I would have had a better feeling about the money I spent. On a positive note they did show up to court, I would not use this law firm again if I ever find myself in the same situation.

While I understand the justice system is in no rush to deal with petty crime, I cannot say that investing a 1000 USD in services from Travis Tormey was worth it.

 In fact, I can instead say that it was essentially worthless.

 After physically going to court four times before a verdict was made, ...Tormey made one suggestion to alleviate the case (the second to last trial, of course) which the judge frantically denied.

 I would contact him for updates and he would tell me we are still waiting. Instead of waiting around, I would ask friends in law school what they would do and make these suggestions to Tormey. He would deny and again, say we have to wait. All in all, I did not need representation as he did nothing for me or my case. Would have been the same slow, uneasy trial if I stepped into court alone.

 Now that all is said and done, he told me he would help expunge this arrest for another whopping amount because he 'only makes a few hundred out of it' and its heavy paperwork. I would say do not waste your time.
