William Joseph Turner

My horror story sounds a lot like the rest of these reviews. Hired him January 2020 and fired him March 2021. In that time the only thing he did for my case was send one email. He will take your money. He will miss your court dates. He will lie about the work he is doing on your case. He will ignore ...your calls and miss appointments. Then, when you fire him, he will promise you a refund you will never get, block your calls, and hold your court file hostage so it makes it harder for you to move on. I paid him $4000 and got nothing out of deal! I see a lot of you mentioned the GA bar...that was my first route, but the supreme court decided not to would reprimand him for his behavior. They said I did not have enough proof. But they did say their decision does not stop any legal actions I choose to bring against Joey. My suggestion would be for you all to PLEASE PLEASE still file a grievance with the GA state bar. The more they hear his name, the more they will become aware of his behavior. Just go to the state bar website/For the public/File a complaint/Grievance. If you need help you can also call them 404-527-8759 or contact me. I am working on something else to get my money back plus more and bring light to this situation. Please, if your story is anything like mine reach out to me. ([email protected]) There is more we can do if we stand as 1. Don't just complain on the reviews! Do something about your situation! As for me this fight is far from over!

Although he's well spoken, he's really full of crap. He takes your money and will not answer your call at all. I can't wait to catch him in the streets. People work hard for their money that he takes away with no remorse. Everybody has family, that they love. I would hate for anything to happen to hi...s lovely looking family. Or maybe I don't being as he doesn't care about no one else family. Go find another lawyer. He will not help you.

I hired mr turner for a case I had and initially he came off as a great guy to trust with my money (being that he worked with me on the payment) However after he was retained he pretty much went silent n all of a sudden unavailable long story short I terminated him and still haven't received my refu...nd nor have I talk to him til this day so bad choice on my end (ZANDERS.M) PS I STILL NEED MY BALANCE JOEY TURNER ITS BEEN A WHOLE YEAR NOW COME ON MAN

I was unfortunate enough to get into some serious legal trouble over a year ago, hired this man and will regret it for the rest of my life. We paid over 9k in total and received nothing but mediocre legal advice, subpar representation, and a COMPLETE lack of any communication. He put forth absolutel...y no effort to get the facts of my case in front of the DA, ignored my repeated requests for a bond hearing and in fact urged me to take a plea deal of 90 days in a probation detention camp in addition to pleading guilty to a felony, because he said, ‘the facts were stacked against me’ which was a lie that we discovered upon his dismissal. Turns out he never requested the discovery from the DA and that was after 8 months of these charges pending against me. Had he requested the discovery he would have known the state’s case against me was completely circumstantial and lacking ANY hard evidence whatsoever. Not only is he notorious for his refusal to return calls, text messages, voice messages and emails but he was at least an hour and sometime 2 hours late to nearly every court appearance I had, of which there were Many. At one point Effingham County Judge Muldrew actually disparaged him in open court for his irresponsibility, consistently late appearances and often flat out refusal to even show up regardless of the amount of time his clients were scheduled on the docket. He talks a great game upon his initial consultation but once you’ve paid him in full he disappears, and does the bare minimum for your case. We ended up firing him and found a new attorney who took his job and me as his client seriously. My case has since been resolved after a year of heartache, debilitating stress and hard core depression, being plead out to a few misdemeanors and a few years probation, a far cry from Joey’s recommendation. BEWARE

I haired this man last year in September for a case he said would take less than 90 days fast forward to today he has done nothing he said he would ive left literally over 100 messages over the past 4 months no call back at all can never reach him but he will give you a consult after you pay him that...'s it I am a Marine and I serve my country so home being busy for months at a time is no excuse do not ignore the bad reviews you can clearly see a trend with them please don't waste your time and money on this man you'll thank me later
