Anthony Hunter Jackson

I would like to explain this review. I would give zero stars if I could. Firstly -- during the period in which I had Mr Jackson on retainer, I moved residences and was charged $150 for changing my address. The problem is, the firm never changed the address they had on record for me, and continued ...to send correspondence where I was no longer living. Second -- on at least three separate occasions, MR Jackson told me "I didn't realize that's they way the courts worked in ____". Isn't it his job to know?? Thirdly -- After having my case delayed for OVER A YEAR; on the day my court date finally came; MR Jackson told me "I just figured out who the opposing attorney is". After a year, my lawyer did not know who the opposing lawyer was (ended up being the main Commonwealth Attorney in my case); but I feel any competent lawyer should have known this, and LONG BEFORE 14 months. Basically, he had no problem taking $4000 from me (earning him interest in an account while my case was delayed and delayed); and offered absolutely nothing in return. There was an occasion where he thought our court date was for some other matter; and had to apologize to the judge. After my sentencing, Mr Jackson told me he was leaving his current firm. I don't know if he was fired, or chasing after more money; but either way I am left with a very bad taste in my mouth. Mr Jackson might be okay with simple things like divorces and living wills; but do not even think of using him for criminal matters! It is my own fault for not firing him after he refused to communicate with me for nearly 3 months. Consider it a lesson learned, and I will be spreading this review by word of mouth also.
