What a waste

I retained Douglas G. Rankin for legal representation and ultimately terminated his services due to serious concerns regarding the handling of my matter. I later pursued legal action against him and obtained a judgment related to fees I had paid. That judgment was not satisfied promptly and required ...enforcement measures. I subsequently had to pursue additional legal action to recover interest due to prolonged delay in payment. This process has resulted in years of continued court involvement stemming from representation that I ended long ago. In my experience, resolution required judicial intervention rather than voluntary compliance. Prospective clients should conduct thorough due diligence before retaining counsel and should carefully document all communications and financial transactions.

Avvo Rating

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. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
