My son was arrested on his way to Florida from NC with his friend, the driver. They were pulled over and unbeknownst to my son their friends packed some things in the trunk to bring to Florida They were pulled over for a wrong turn were searched and 2 OxyContin were found in the trunk. They were... brought to jail. I hired Jarrett Maillet who requested $750.00 up front. I signed a contract with him stating “Both parties understand that this agreement represents the legal work to be performed in the Bryan County Superior Court”. I paid his fee, posted bond and Jarrett got him out of jail. For next 1 1/2 years before court I tried to connect with Jarrett with no response. One week before court my son received a call from his friend, the driver, telling him we have a court date next week. We never heard this! If he had not contacted my son there would have been a warrant out for his arrest!!!! My son immediately call Jarrett and he told my son I only paid to get him out of jail!!! WHAT??? Not according to the signed contract!!!! I immediately called Jarrett where he changed his tune knowing full well we had paid for his representation! I made an appointment to meet with him the night before court. I took the day off work drove to GA the night before court to meet with Jarrett. Once I arrived I called Jarrett and he claimed he didn’t have time to meet, “his daughter had a recital”. He then went on to say “what’s the big deal, it’s only the arraignment”!! WHAT??? I demanded to meet with him to discuss our case prior to court and he reluctantly agreed. If I hadn’t pushed this lawyer, demanded he do the job I paid him for my son would have faced jail time. This lawyer’s lack of ethics should be clearly noted!!! I demanded he request a dismissal based on the lack of evidence, he kept saying “you can ask for whatever you want but the arraignment is just for guilt or not guilty”! We did get this dismissal at the arraignment as I knew we could BUT it would not have happened if I didn’t push this lawyer to do his job! I fear for anyone that hires him!!!
