Geoffrey Vincent Seay

Well, I am about to tell you isn’t even half of what happened but my personal experience, I strongly warn anyone considering hiring Geoffrey Vincent Seay to think again. What my family went through with him was not just unprofessional — in my opinion, it was irresponsible, deceptive, and damaging. ... We hired him for two separate cases at the same time: • an assault case, where he mishandled critical steps so badly that we eventually had to file a PCRA because of his errors, AND • a firearms case, for which we paid him $7,500 upfront with the expectation that he would represent the defendant through trial. Instead, in my experience, what we got was the exact opposite of real representation. Here is what happened: • He failed to handle the assault case correctly, leading to severe consequences that forced us to pursue a PCRA filing. • He took on the firearm case at the same time for a TRIAL, demanded $7,500, and then never showed up for the trial. • When the court date arrived, he removed himself from the case, left us hanging, and in my opinion, ran off with the money without doing the work he was paid to do. • To be clear: we paid him in full, and he did not even attend the trial for the firearm case. • Communication was nonexistent. He would disappear for long periods, ignore calls, and avoid giving updates. We were constantly left in the dark. • Court dates were misrepresented, information was wrong or incomplete, and nothing was ever explained. • The stress and damage this caused to our family is beyond words. In my personal opinion: This attorney should not be trusted with anyone’s freedom, money, or future. What he did to us was not just unprofessional — it was unacceptable. We are now in the process of pursuing a disciplinary complaint AND a lawsuit, because we refuse to let this happen to another family. If I could give zero stars, I would. This review is based solely on my experience, but I strongly urge any family considering him to choose another lawyer. Your loved one’s life is too important to gamble with someone who, in my opinion, acts this irresponsibly.
