Adam J. Conti

I hired AC to represent me as a federal employee in a discrimination lawsuit against a federal agency. I was impressed at our consultation meeting during which he said I had a very strong winnable case, which I did. I gave him all the documentation he needed to prove multiple violations of merit pro...motion process and patterns of hiring certain gender and race groups over other more extensively qualified, experienced, educated, and professionally certified. Assuming I didn't even have a case he still is not someone you want to hire. Only his staff contacted me after the consultation and within a year charged me $15,000 for nothing but administrative BS. There was no legal strategy, etc. discussions with Mr. Conti at all. He once called me to know if I needed him to be on the phone with the contractor hired by the EEO Office to conduct their investigation and I told him no, I had experience and didn't need him. Despite this, he called me minutes before the scheduled call and had the contractor on the phone so it was kind of hard for me to avoid and he sat there for an hour on the phone listening to the conversation, he said absolutely nothing, hung up when the call ended and then charged me his $450 an hour fee for NOTHING. He never consolidated my EEO cases like he said he would and even had his paralegal contact me and ask me who I wanted to call as witnesses in the EEO hearing without talking to me or even telling me what kind of witnesses I should call and what they should be able to testify to. He's the attorney but doesn't even bother to consult with me about what witnesses I should call - major red flag. There was absolutely no point in hiring this firm; they did nothing but bill me until I fired them
