Jarrod William Smith

I hired him through pre-trial motions for $2500 for an E felony which he said he would get dismissed with a single motion. Upon my refusal of a misdemeanor plea because I was innocent, he said he would withdraw from the case if I did not pay more, I have a witness who signed an affirmation to this. ... He misread NYC law for NYS law, missed the fact that the felony complaint was not only fraudulent, but had me committing a crime in Auburn NY when I was working in Batavia, NY (3hours drive west!). He is incompetent, and inattentive. He actually had to be called on his cell phone by THE JUDGE to appear in Court and represent me. Legal research, yep, on his cellphone in-between colluding with the DA. I am currently filing a civil lawsuit against him. Oh, and he waived speedy trial against my verbal and written direction (again with a witness) screwing me over for a 30.30 dismissal. 13 months later, I got myself out of jail by self representing (Pro Se).
