Disappointed in the services my family received, he was a monster
This lawyer is a joke, he's angry and unprofessional. It was as if he was working for the DA! Do yourself and your love one a big favor and run from him as fast as you can. He became my families worst nightmare. DO NOT HAVE HIM AS YOUR LAWYER< HE DOES NOT CARE NO EMPATHY!!!!!!
