Michael Eric Adler

He disappointed me as my attorney. He crossed professional boundaries by calling me after working hours, asking me personal questions unrelated to the case, and constantly requesting to spend time with me outside working hours. It made me extremely uncomfortable. I talked to my family about it. They ...suggested I call the credit card company to request a refund for mr retainer fee. I did so. After I explained the situation, the credit card company issued me a full refund. When Mr. Adler became aware of this, he texted me at 2:13 AM. His tone was hostile and aggressive towards me over text. l did not respond to him until 9:22 AM later that same morning. My response was also by text and should have been enough. It wasn’t. He began to text me repeatedly for the remainder of the day with the same hostile and aggressive tone. I told him to call the credit card company about his grievances. The final text he sent me was to let me know he filed a complaint and would be mailing me and my father a final bill of service in the amount of $2500. Now, let me be crystal clear on one simple thing, not only was Mr. Adler unable to represent me as my attorney in the matter he was retained for, he also acted inappropriately and unprofessionally on more than one occasion. He is a sleazy guy and will not be paid by me or my father under any circumstance—period. I would not recommend him to anyone. He is a terrible person and a terrible lawyer. Do yourself a favor, don’t call him.

Mr. Adler took 1 retainers from me and then there was no work done for the case Zero. When contacted he wouldnt respond any calls or emails to him. . Adler never gave me a bill for any work done. I paid him $3000 I asked Mr. Adler for billable hours itemized bill but never got it. I sent him emails ...for 2 months and he did not answer even one. I have a complaint in to the disciplinary board.
