Posted by Nataliya | January 06, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Led me on, betrayed, lied, and did things behind my back. Should be disbarred.

Andrew Black is the lawyer who I would not recommend even to my worst enemy. Andrew is extremely careless, difficult to reach, does not explain much, does not prepare his client for a trial and does not prepare himself, said to us "dont be stupid", and was literally setting me up to fail. I was told... "I spent 2 hours on reading your deposition last night". Like BRAVO!!On top of it, Andrew did things behind my back and signed off my rights/ consented my case without even me knowing about it. I do not know why he did it when I told him muuuuuuultiple times how important this case to me. Seems like he either absolutely did not care or he was bribed. One way or another it is very bad. Andrew should pray that things go well for me because otherwise I will sue him for the bad doings he did.Also, he barely appeared on court appearances. He sent other lawyers, who were not even familiar with the case. I did not know about it. I strongly not recommend Andrew because this is nothing but an absolute negligence and disaster. I do believe he should be disbarred.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?

  • 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.
