Posted by Christine | November 18, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Do not hire, mishandles case, over charges and not a nice person.

Would not recommend this lawyer. He mishandled my case and improperly filed, only to charge me double to refile again. When I received my bill he had charged me every time he called me to explain the status at $500 per hour. He never completed my case and left for a new firm. A simple filing was ...over $5K with no resolution, and he was not a nice person. Would not recommend or hire this person.

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.
