James Whitfield Lee III

I have been in business for many years. I never expect perfection, but I do expect a modicum of efficiency and at the very least a returned call within a reasonable time. Mr. Lee delivered neither. I hired Mr. Lee to handle a simple real estate transaction and also an eviction. On both cases ...he failed miserably. I was forced to hire another attorney for the real estate transaction because he simply didn't provide a review of the contract I provided nor did he return calls or emails. We were already in the process of the eviction. Mr Lee represented my business and, in my opinion, we got outsmarted by a legal aid attorney. When I presented a counter offer, Mr. Lee refused to approach my tenant's attorney and suggested "You should take what they offered". Not what I have ever experienced with any attorney. He seemed unwilling to negotiate at all, but seemed to comply with every tactic the legal aid attorney presented. Mr. Lee also failed to file the necessary lien paperwork with the state in order for me to collect monies owed. Mr. Lee was paid in full as I always adhere to my business philosophy, "When we part ways, you'll miss me a lot more than I'll miss you".
