Posted by Roy | September 25, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Ethics & Professional Responsibility

Took Money and Disappeared

Neglect and Incompetence: Despite receiving a $7,500 retainer in November 2022, Marques J. Carter failed to file any court documents until April 2023. This five-month delay significantly jeopardized my case. In August 2023, the court granted Mr. Carter an additional 30 days to serve the defendant.... However, no action was taken during this extended period. Since August 2023, there has been a complete lack of progress on my case. No further filings have been submitted. Lack of Professionalism: Throughout our interactions, Mr. Carter has displayed a rude and disrespectful demeanor, which is unacceptable from a legal professional. Due to Attorney's repeated failures to meet deadlines, act on court orders, and maintain basic communication, I have lost all confidence in their ability to represent me effectively. I believe that their conduct constitutes a violation of the Georgia Bar's rules of professional conduct.

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.
