Posted by anonymous | November 13, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Worst public defender I've ever had

Mr. Sandison never answered any phone calls, constantly fell short of the communication I would expect from him to my family, and got me a god awful plea deal (plead guilty to all 3 felonies I was charged with in Rowan County, even though it was my first adult criminal offense, and I was very young a...t the time of the offense. On top of all this, the state had little to no evidence. Despite this fact, he told me it would probably be in my best interest to take the plea deal because they would have a good chance of conviction at trial. At the end of all this, I was charged over $500 when he claimed he worked over 9 hours. On the other hand, I had lawyers in Pender and Onslow counties that did answer phone calls, were in constant contact with my family, and got much better plea deals, yet somehow I got charged much less and they claimed to have worked less hours. Overall, Mr Sandison seems to me like someone just interested in money, I personally beleive that he didn't care what happened to me, as long as he's getting paid. When looking him up on this website, I was very surprised to see him get this high of a 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.

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.
