Caution

I hired Alex several years ago to represent my son. I was shocked that he appeared in court unprepared & postponed dates several times because of he was not ready in court. I really hope he is no longer in practice.

Horrible and unprofessional job !!!

As a result of his horrible and unprofessional job I lost a lot of money. I had a very severe nervous breakdown. And I would like to warn his future clients that Mr. Talmadge is a very unintelligent person and lawyer, who cares only about his payments and has no professional knowledge and skills.

Did Not Represent

Poorest representation I have ever experienced. Did not represent at all. We feel that we were sold out. No representation, he just stood their and said nothing in our defense. Licensed should be questioned and checked out to see if they are valid. Maybe he just do not care about his clients, I d...on't know.

Client

Mr. Talmadge did not come to court prepared. It really came as a surprise that an attorney could come to court and not have researched the charges or the case at all. I don't want to say that he wouldn't do a good job for someone else but he didn't do a good job for my family member. If I had it t...o do over again or if I ever had to pick a criminal lawyer again, I would definatley interview the attorney a little more to get a real grasp of his work ethic.
