Horrible

Very intimidating, rude, does not listen to his client. This lawyer is free for the elderly and uses his power to belittle his own clients. Does not listen, give advice nor wants to hear what the client has to say regarding the case. Does not have the knowledge on the case, forgets and gives wrong in...formation. Actually was damaging to my case. I would never recommend him to represent a client. You would be better off begging, borrowing and stealing to pay for lawyer even if you are low income.
