Rude and very unprofessional

I spoke to him on the phone.I had some questions about a injury case I have. he told me to fire my lawyer and he would take my case.When I went to his office he spent less than 5 minutes with me and said he didn't want the case.I couldn't believe it. Mr. Telson is the rudest person I've ever met in ...my entire life.he was extremely smug and very unprofessional.Now I am seriously injured without a lawyer

This Attorney is Rogue.

This attorney meets with potential clients and tell them everything a client wants to hear from their potential attorney. Once the client retain this attorney he goes rogue on them. He receives your call but have little time to listen to what ever you wish to discuss with him. Every comment from ...him is we just have to wait and see what happens in court. He never like to take the initiative and contact the opposing council for required information he will show up to a hearing knowing he never received the documents promised during the last court date and allow the judge to request the same information from the opposing council again with out a comment. If you as the client inquire why the case is not progressing as you thought it would he will turn on you and make you the enemy. From this point forward you get nothing but arrogance and hostile responses from the person (attorney) who represent you and should be on your side. When you call to have a meaningful conversation about the case he rushes you off the phone and anything you thought you were going to cover with him gets swepted under the rug. Then when you show up for court he want to ask you questions you should have covered prior to the court hearing . So in a nut shell it appears as though he enjoys reporting to court rather its productive or not because he gets paid no matter what amount the case is settled for. In closing, it would have been appreciated if he was Proactive rather than non-compliant and argumentative to me the client; but rather informative and resourceful to the opposing side.
