Paid attorneys fees and got nothing

I had a simple possession and paid all my lawyer fees to find out a year and a half later I have a warrant for my arrest for so called charge. Complete waste of my time and money. Wish I could give half a star

Slowly workers, Find someone who actually gets work done

In the beginning, we were given hope that our case would move forward swiftly and we had everything ready to go. Calling the office is USELESS!!! Whoever the people are at the desk either never received proper training, or were not told how to handle working at a professional company. They were extre...mely rude and do not know how to talk to people. You would think working for a lawyer’s office, you would have some sense of respecting and understanding the frustration the other party is going through. ESPECIALLY when you have PAID IN FULL, paid all fees and everything that was required of us. Once they got the money, my case went downhill and slowed down and every time I had a question, I was told I would get a call back.... If you do not know how to answer a question, maybe you should not be working there. Trying to get any type of information is impossible. Worst experience ever. The lawyer also seems to know what he is doing, but as you work with him, seems like the job was just handed down to him, and he has no idea after the basics. I would have been better off without this law office and there "services" they claim to provide.

Mrs./Ms. Spade, I’ve never had a client by your name. I’m not certain if you were writing this on behalf of someone else or if you had a different last name, at the time you believe you hired my office.

Excellent in Contract Dispute

I needed help with a contract dispute and Brian was very responsive and knowledgable, he even responded to me on weekends! Very happy with his abilities.

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.
