EXCELLENT Experience (Consumer Law)

I reached out to Louis regarding a bait and switch scam I was the victim of in May 2021. LOUIS WAS AWESOME. He answered my emails and calls pretty much immediately, guided me through the entire process (even on the weekend) and got me a FULL refund back. He called everything before it happened and wi...thout his help I most definitely would have had a disaster on my hands. I CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH- Vanessa Branca

Not a good experience

Working with Mr Schwartz was an extremely demoralizing experience. My family sought Mr.Schwartz's services in regards to an issue with PGW. My sister met with him and explained the situation. His services were retained. He wrote a letter (which I still have in a file) that notified PGW that his... services were retained. By this time, the administrative judge deemed that there was sufficient cause to schedule a hearing. I notified the judge that we retained Mr Schwartz's services. A few days later, the office of the administrative judge forwarded a caustic letter (which I have in a file) from Mr Schwartz stating that he never heard of us and his services were never retained by my family. When I e-mailed an inquiry to Mr Schwartz, he was apologetic and stated that he was confused. I told him that a hearing was scheduled. He quoted a fee for retaining his service to represent my family at the hearing. My sister scheduled a meeting to render the fee and discuss the hearing. When my sister met with him, he interrogated her on the issues that she discussed during her first meeting with him. It seemed that he was not aware of the case..even though my sister thoroughly discussed the case in her initial meeting in which she retained his services. Afterwards, he called PGW to negotiate a settlement..EVEN THOUGH THE JUDGE STATED THAT ANY NEGOTIATION SHOULD ARBITRATED BY THE COURT BEFORE THE HEARING. His intervention at this point only created more confusuons and problems. When we attempted to call him to notify him what the administrative judge's office advised, he did not..nor did he ever.. return the call.

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.
