Posted by Rodney | October 10, 2021 | Hired Attorney

Incompetent

This attorney is an ego maniac that is dishonest and incompetent. He makes promises that he doesn’t follow through on. He over bills and does not communicate. Once he takes your money and is too incompetent to help you he releases you as a client.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
