Knowlege wise ok, but unfortunately not overall ok for me! But...

I hate to leave a negative or below average feedback, but I feel sorry I had to do it in this case. I met this lawyer to discuss my bankruptcy case, however due to other reasons I could not retain this lawyer. But I was charged $1,000 for an hour and 1/2 meeting (no retainer signed). I requested some... money back, but never heard back. But I do see this attorney having good knowledge, so he gets 5 starts for that. But overall I was disappointed, because he didn't return the unused money, especially I explained that that money will help me with my delayed rent payment etc.. Anyway my experience doesn't mean you would experience the same as long as you are smart not to pay any money up front unless a retainer is signed, so on that front my own review for myself as a person is very poor, mean innocent :-). Hope Gods will save innocents.

While we understand the difficulty that our clients are facing when we are contacted, the information in this review is not accurate. We offer free case evaluations to every prospective client. If a prospective client wishes more time, they have the option of a paid consultation, or if they so decide, to retain us. Our office always has written retainer agreements for all matters. In this particular case, I am confident that any client who retained our office also received an invoice for billed time devoted to any matter. I believe that this client was ultimately provided a refund of unused retainer. If there is still any question, I would encourage this client to contact me to discuss.

"I endorse this lawyer. I first met him shortly after his admission to the bar when I was serving as a Chapter 7 bankruptcy trustee. He was always well prepared, knowledgable and a forceful advocate for his clients. He is highly respected by both his colleagues and the Judges in bankruptcy court. He is an excellent attorney and a fine individual."

  • 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.
