Craig Diallo Carson

Hired Mr. Craig over the summer for a tenant dispute representing the tenant. The matter was time sensitive, which was replaced to Mr. Carson. After paying to retain his services he became essentially unresponsive. It took over two weeks for him to even send the initial email to the other party's att...orney. It felt like he was delaying work to force the case into court. Prior to retaining his services I explained I wanted to avoid court and any eviction filings and wanted him to act as a mediator. By the time I retained his services we had almost a full month, yet when he reached out to the other party's attorney less than a week until lease end. Services retained on 7/5 first email not sent until 7/23. In addition he didn't seem to look into anything further. I informed him no notice of nonrenewal had been received, took weeks for him to even ask for proof after my landlord refused to provide me proof or even the letter. Once "proof" was received it was a certified letter receipt, however I found the tracking to show that no delivery was ever attempted. He was not able to get proof that a letter was posted to our door like the landlord lied about, or that one was put in the mailbox which the landlord also lied about. In addition the address on the certified letter receipt is written over and nearly illegible. None of this seemed like a concern that should be looked into by Craig. He just kept pushing oh let this go to court it'll be fine you'll get a few extra months here. I again tried to retain his services in October where he responded to my initial email nearly immediately saying "let me review this" and then never responding again. Horribly unresponsive. Incredibly disheartening. When someone hires you to handle a potential eviction it's actually crazy to have to beg for updates and for the attorney to review and work the case he was hired for. If you don't want to work the case, don't extend your retainer to the client.

I met Craig through a community event, I didn't know he was lawyer at the time, but I like the fact that he was and still is heavily in the community. Once I found out that he was a lawyer I hired him to take care of some things involving my business. He was very polite and knowledgeable in what I n...eeded to have done. I also hired him on a personal level and again, he walked me through every step, answered any questions or concerns that I had. The best part he is very reasonable with his prices and will work with you if needed. I would highly recommend him to family and friends. Thank you Craig Carson!!!

Craig is a great attorney here in the Rochester area. I contacted him regarding my pistol permit hearing, he jumped right in and went to work! Although he doesn’t specialize in pistol permit cases, he got the job done!! I was granted to carry concealed after two prior applications. He was very profes...sional yet, down to earth. I felt comfortable as if I had known him for years! He was very efficient with every aspect of my case. Most of all, I absolutely loved the way he presented in front of the judge. He made sure all the judges questions and concerns were addressed and clear cut! I felt confident exiting the court room! I would definitely hire (again) and refer this guy in a heartbeat. He genuinely cares for people and is a true professional in his field! Lastly, he doesn’t jack up the prices for services like some others! He charged me less than what I gave him and didn’t want to take the tip! I kind of forced him because I was extremely satisfied with his work! If you’re in need of an attorney, contact him today! If he cannot help he will direct you to someone who can!

I was worried about my case,COVID hit and my ex was not responding. Craig was very informative and efficient! My case took a little over 90 days, for EVERYTHING. He didn’t charge me for bogus things, made sure that I understood every step of the process and ultimately helped me regain freedom! Highl...y recommend
