I hired this lawyer to represent me in a tenant landlord case appeal. The judge added up what he felt I owed the plaintiff and my lawyer forgot to make sure my 2400 security deposit was credited from this amount. I repeatedly requested that my attorney correct this. It was his error and he did not e...ven offer me the opportunity to pay him to fix the error. He said that the plaintiff's attorney assured him it had been credited. The whole point of having an attorney is to be defended against the charges/plaintiff. It cost me a 2500 retainer and then an extra 2400 for the loss of proper crediting of my security deposit. This was an error that could have been corrected he just did not care enough to do so. I could not afford to hire another attorney to correct his mistake. I would avoid this attorney. I am still stunned that he could not be bothered to fix his own error.
