Hired him and he did NOTHING

If I could give this guy ZERO stars, I absolutely would. I cannot believe he is still in business. (Hired by my husband) All information is true and accurate! I have a signed contract that I can upload. What we were promised, we did not receive. We paid them a $5,000 retainer and got nothing in r...eturn. The only receipt we’ve seen shows they used just $400, and they refuse to refund the rest. After 9 months of chasing them down for answers on a simple child support modification, not a single filing was made by these attorneys. We submitted our financial affidavit multiple times, spoke with the paralegal repeatedly, asked to speak with the attorney — and still received no answers and no action. We were told documents were “never received,” even though we had already submitted them. They made us go in circles with no resolution, no follow-through, and no professional accountability. To make matters worse, the attorney even emailed us claiming we didn’t pay for the service we hired him for — and said he would only help if we paid more. The service he referred to was clearly listed in the original contract and had already been paid for in full. This is unethical and unacceptable. They collect, then disappear. I promise you, they will do absolutely nothing for you except take your money, string you along, and leave you worse off than when you started. If you’re considering hiring them — run. And if you’ve had a similar experience, report it to the Florida Bar. We did.

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.
