Extremely Unprofessional and Rude Communication
I reached out to this attorney with a simple inquiry regarding a traffic case and received one of the most unprofessional responses I’ve ever seen. His tone was condescending and unnecessarily rude from the start, and when I politely replied, he followed up with a hostile email telling me to “go else...

Replied last October 01, 2025Unfortunately, dealing with entitled individuals is an issue that many business owners have to deal with. I never worked for this woman on a mission running around the internet posting this review everywhere. I never worked for this individual. The quality of my work is shown by the other reviews posted on this site. This woman sent me an unsolicited email asking me for free services and whether I accepted a case on a contingent fee basis that I am ethically prohibited from accepting on that basis. She was told no and objected to my "tone". She doesn't post the screenshot here, but she has on Google. Take a look for yourself and decide whether the issue is my "tone" or her entitlement. I had no obligation to respond to her at all to begin with, but did so. When someone asks a lawyer whether they will violate professional ethics, it costs them nothing, but it costs the lawyer everything. I apologize for absolutely nothing and this woman should be avoided at all costs.

Bad
Rude and unprofessional over the phone. Consulted about a personal matter with trouble I got into. He was very rude over the phone and then hung up on me when I called him out for his rudeness. I wouldn't hire him.

Replied last January 06, 2025I have no idea who this is & cannot respond to this anonymous "review" of a phone call; with the exception that one need only look at my other reviews on this site, from those I ACTUALLY represented. That is what really counts. I did not represent this individual, whoever he/she is, and they have no right to "review" me. If they would like to discuss whatever they claim transpired on the phone, I would be happy to respond.
