Takes money from clients on pro bono cases

I have been witness to two instances where mr. Pennington was provided to the defendant on pro bono terms. His spill is that if it work out in his favor or the defendants favor rather then he will charge a 200-500$ fee, which is completely illegal. He calls other attorneys clients and undercuts them ...and even goes as far as telling them how bad the person they went with is. This guy is chip barker jr

Dishonesty

A lawyer of dishonesty. A lawyer who is very unprepared and doesn't pay attention to what the client tells him. You ask if this can be done and agrees that it can when by law it actually can't, yet you have to wait till you are in court to find this out. He sees you the one initial time to falsely s...ay this can be done tell you what your fee is for him except payment then that it unless you are the one making the calls to him you never hear from him again even the day before court. Then the court is a complete disaster. My advice is to run far away from him .
