The worse lawyer I've ever hired!

I hired Mr David Head in September 2020 to handle a probation violation which he charged 5k to do. He has lied time and time again about the progress of him negotiating my violation and even who's he has been negotiating with. He stopped answering my family's calls November and we've had to resort to... calling from random numbers of which when he does answer, he tells more lies! He voicemail is always full and we don't even have a contact address or office number only his cell number which he doesn't answer. Our next step is to call the board about him a how he has taken our money and provided no service. Before he got our money, he acted very knowledgeable and driven to get us results, after getting our money, he has been non existent. Please stay away from this fraud of a lawyer.

Non-recovery of my mother's estate!

Atty. David C. Head of Carrollton, GA USA did not earn the $7,500.00 retainer fee that I proffered him in early 2008. He never got in touch with us and he never offered us even a partial refund and he refused to supply us with an itemized list of his "services." He was impossible to reach by phone an...d he was seldom in his office. His efforts were quite minimal concerning the recovery of my demented 86-year-old mother's estate, (she was suffering from an advanced condition of Parkinson's disease) which she had been tricked into signing over to my unqualified son via a quitclaim deed. I have lodged a complaint with the Georgia State Bar in hopes of, at least, recovering a portion of the retainer fee. His malfeasance has left my mother and I in a terrible financial mess! Avoid this character at all costs!
