Unprofessional

Our first encounter I spoke with mr. Watson concerning my situation we set up a time for consultation he then asked me to wire him the money ahead of time I was referred to him I by a close friend he canceled on me A hour before our meeting and I thought that was very unprofessional!! then sent me a ...text from a other client concerning their conversation.. I fought felt very violated by that and disappointed.. I then requested my money back from him he told me he mailed me a check.. I never seen it!! requested him to wire me my money back immediately. very unprofessional attorney..
