Melvin Raines II

After he was paid, he gave my family members the run around. He never spoke or met with the client until bond hearing...after that , family members were calling about the status and he blocked them and didn't respond. He lied about client being put on court calendar and that was lie. He was discuss...ing the case with outside people. Complaint filed with Ga bar.

I hire him back in Sept 2022 for a case that was a Clear cut and dry case. I had all the evidence proving my innocence. The 1st ring he should have done was suppose to be getting the M.O.D then file to dismiss the warrants. He wouldn’t return phone calls or texts for weeks at the time. It got to th...e point I had to threaten to get my money back to get him to answer. Then is was a short response. Finically after 3 times asking to return my money I had to make a complaint to the bar association.. He’s been telling me for a month he’s gonna return my money even told me how much but I’ve yet to see it.
