Failure to Represent!

I was assaulted by one of my students and injured on the job. 17 years of teaching in title one schools, and this is the first time I've ever become a victim. I was victimized by my student. I was victimized through my place of employment and unfortunately I was victimized by the very man I hired t...o help me find justice. He did not keep me informed. He made important decisions about my case without discussing it with me. One example: In court opposing counsel was discussing the IME outcome for the state and we discover their doctor did not perform all the test he was suppose too. The judge immediately started making verbal arrangements for me to go back to get the rest of the test done. My attorney spoke up and said he was okay with it going on record that said doctor would probably say it was 0 percent. All three laughed and kept it going. Of course, Opposing counsel agreed and no one asked me anything. This is just one example of several failures to communicate that I experienced while working with Mr. FJ Collins! He did not give me the representation I deserved. Do better Attorney Collins. Just do better.

Attorney knows his craft.

Mr. Collins helped me several years ago. He is a great attorney and yet he allowed my input and directions on my case. He never tried to overcharge me . He is a man of integrity. He is dependable and as honest as they come.
