Deceitful, unresponsive and untrustworthy

I met with David for a free consultation. He seemed like a nice a genuine guy. He promised to send me a biographical form and start working on my change of status. He didn't send the biographical form in over 1 week but yet charged me for the free consultation. I should have sensed something shady wa...s up when he didn't let me sign a contract. Feel free to contact me for more specifics about my case . I wouldn't recommend David to my worst enemy. Stay away from him as much as you can. He gives ALL lawyers a bad name. I'm in the process of filing a complaint against him.

I bent over backwards to make you happy. Unfortunately, there was no pleasing you. I am very sad to see your very harsh and false comments. While you are entitled to your opinion I believe the 5 stars I have received from every other customer speaks for itself. Good luck and enjoy the refund I gave you

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
