Soon to be disbarred

We recently were awarded a $300K judgment against Hays and his partners James Martin and Emory Potter. The judge cited “improper tactics” “harassment”, “unclean hands”, “bad faith” and 27 pages of misconduct in his order against these three lawyers. They were ordered to post a bond and they did not,... they were ordered to pay the judgment within 10 days and haven’t paid a penny, and they appealed and lost. They mislead the court and made false statements in their various appeals. They are a menace and will hopefully soon be disbarred!

Hiring Outside Professionals

Avvo 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. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
