DO NOT HIRE RICHARD KOLOSKY!!

I contacted mr kolosky about a pending case I had coming up, through a recommendation from my original lawyer, who couldn't take my case, due to someone in his office working with the court on those types of cases. I met him at his girlfriends garage, and we had a "consult." A meeting that should h...ave taken 10-20 mins took an hour, due to him going off topic into multiple irrelevant stories... at 100 $ a half hour! During this "consult," he told me it was, 2500$ FOR A MISDEMEANOR CASE. That's a lot of money for me, but I agreed, with the stated, AND AGREED UPON STIPULATION, that he would have to work with me, because I couldn't come up with that much all at once. So AFTER my preliminary hearing, he tells me there will be, "additional charges" for the next court date, but he didn't specify. I said that was fine, if at best apprehensively. I was in his office THE DAY BEFORE MY COURT DATE, to pay off the balance of the 2500, and his secretary confirmed the time and court number for the next day. DONT I GET A CALL AS IM DRIVING TO COURT, FROM RICHARD, STATING THAT SINCE I DIDNT PAY THE ADDITIONAL 2500$, PER COURT APPEARANCE, BEFORE THIS COURT DATE, HE WONT BE THERE TO REPRESENT ME IN COURT!! WOW
