Should be disbarred

Would never hire Andrew Sacks to represent you. Mishandled the case, then actually file an affidavit on behalf of the prosecution against the defendant. Should be disbarred.

Worse lawyer in 757 area

At first Mr. Sacks act like he was going to do any and everything to help us we our case but once he received our money he stop answering our phone calls and was not helpful at all. DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT HIRE HIM TO BE YOUR LAWYER HE JUST WANTS YOURS MONEY. He takes on to much and always acts like h...e is to busy to help with your case. I regret hiring him to be my lawyer

Supreme Court Ruled again Mr. Sacks

In a November Supreme Court ruling , they found Mr. Sacks as "ineffective Counsel", in 3 areas of my case. We hired him in 2009. He started off efficient, ended up DEFICIENT. It was a nightmare. He was quite sidetracked with other matters. Had too many cases. Doesn't win that much anymore. All abo...ut plea deals. Withheld expert information from me and my paying Mom. Information that we paid for. He will never go after the Cops Investigations or Prosecution to establish reasonable doubt. He is so much more. I will not repeat. Please don't Be swayed by his long past successes. He cost me 7 years of my life. He is my far, the biggest mistake I ever made , hiring him. Won't return calls, cares about his money more than his clients. Stay Away. You have been warned.
