Kenneth J. Rajotte

I hired him to represent me in a DUI - Less Safe case. When meeting him at his office, I noticed he was very professionally dressed and has very beautiful hand writing. After telling him details of my case, he said that unless the videos show me falling down drunk, then most likely we would be able... to get my charge reduced to a wreckless driving. He spouted names of judges, solicitors, cops, etc all in an attempt to make me think he knows the people I would be dealing with. When we showed up for the hearing and asked for a reduced sentence the police officer refused to lower it. Now faced with an administrative hearing the following week I asked him what were the odds that I was going to lose this. Rajotte completely flip-flopped saying "This isn't Vegas. I'm not here to give you odds." I could not believe my ears. I'm not an attorney, I needed advice. He wasn't giving it. He moved the case to Fulton County. We proceeded to the administrative hearing where he argued for close to 2 hours. When I got the judge's decision I found out he battled an argument that the police officer had no right to stop me for questioning. The judge recited a police officer has every right to question someone in an investigation. We lost the case! Any DUI attorney should have known he couldn't win that specific argument. Rajotte then reminded me that his 12 hours of service was now about exhausted and if we go to trial his fees were going "way up". Now already $2500 in to this I realized this guy doesn't know what he is doing. So before I allowed him to blindly walk me into another court room, I started pressing for his strategies....more than once I asked what he intended on arguing. I told him I wanted the state to know he was going to be there to put up a strong fight. He then quit my case 2 weeks before I was to go to court in Fulton County citing that he did not want to continue working with someone of a "deceptive nature". The only thing deceptive is his ability to be a good lawyer! Mr. Rajotte is not there to defend. He just wants to work a plea and not worry about the work involved in an actual hearing. Stay away from him at all costs! This is my first time dealing with a DUI and will be the last. I have had 2 other attorneys for other stuff, but this guy is hands down the worst of the 3.
