Extremely Poor Communication

I had a very minor case & I'll start out by saying that I got the outcome I wanted. But I didn't appreciate that I sent him an email regarding my case and pending charges and he never bothered to acknowledge it. He also said that he was going to email me the information on the next appearance dat...e and a referral for an employment attorney for one of my family members & he never did. I also didn't enjoy sitting in the court room on the 2nd appearance he was suppose to be there with me on and how he didn't show up or even contact me. I had to call the office twice before they could track him down---he was on another case that lasted longer than expected. But my case was scheduled for 9:30 in the morning, so I'm not sure why he would book something at 9 considering that odds are he would be there longer than 30 mins. My case was called by the judge twice before the replacement attorney---who also happens to be the owner of the practice---showed up. What if I didn't call? Would anyone have come or even communicate with me? My problem with the replacement attorney is that he explained that I would have points on my license but when I asked him how many, he couldn't give me a number other than saying "hardly any". I gave him 2 stars because all the charges were dropped. Otherwise, I'd only give one. It takes less than 2 minutes to answer an email and if he needed to overschedule then he should have at least let me know there was a chance he would be late and have a back up plan in place. The poor communication is simply unacceptable.

Worst ever

He never answers the calls or returns them. My case didn’t require much work . It was simple divorce. & accidentally when answers . I said are you busy I can come & sign . He tells me yes sure come in . I was there in 20 minutes. Which I told him before getting there. When I reached there he had a cl...ient I waited over 25 minutes. On a second occasion the same senario. Both times I leave work to see him since he closes at 5 n my work is over at 5:15. The second time also he made me wait so long I saw Nathan thru the glass window from the waiting room chit chatting with his secretary. I waited over & hour. All to sign 2 documents. It’s been almost 3 months he had communicated with me in the initial meeting the divorce would take 3 months. Don’t waste your time. The older secretary never knows what’s going on. She’s oblivious all the time!

  • 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.
