Steven Allan Cook

I am not sure what may have happened to Steve, I have been told he is not the attorney he once was. I hired him to represent my daughter. I was happy with his price, even though I was told that I would need to hire another attorney in another county to deal with the VOP case. I paid him more than ...half of his fees. Steve went to see my daughter, we had two phone calls after that, his assessment of my daughter and her case was completely off from what he first told me and this was after he pulled her charges. A few days later, he went to visit my daughter again, he did not look (to my daughter) like the same man, knew nothing of her case and acted as if he never met her before. I asked for part of my money back after finding another attorney. He told me he did more than the $600 he was paid and would not be refunding any of the money. The new attorney has done all the work and is well worth the more than double Steve's fee. Do not be bamboozled into using him because you want to cut corners. A compliant with the GA BAR and everywhere else is forth coming as I want a refund on his non work.

I hired Mr. Cook and paid him up front. He told me not to call him that he would contact me if he needed to talk to me. He also told me he would take care of my situation in Court not to worry about it. A year later, I was pulled over on a minor incident and was arrested on a warrant for failure to... appear. I contacted his office and Ms. Shaw first stated I had only paid half of the bill, I gave her the receipt no and proof they had cashed my checks, she then said they had tried and tried to contact me and were not able to. I've had the same address and phone number for years. I review my phone bill and there are no calls from his office. I spent a day in jail, my truck was towed, lost 2 days of work. It has cost me a lot of money for this attorney's stupid mistake. I'm surprised with all the bad reviews and what people comment about him when you start asking, that he is still practicing . He needs to be reported to the State Bar!!!!!!!
