horrible

My son hired this man for his case, he was given $2500 upfront and did nothing, Never answered his phone, emails or texts and never returned calls and lied about working the case, we ended up obtaining a new lawyer who had my son out in days and also stated that Mr. Jackson had my son sitting for wee...ks and he never touched the case.

Horrible

If I could give him a 0, I would. He did absolutely nothing for my case. If I hadn’t called the court myself to ensure my court date had been set a warrant was going to be issued for my arrest. I could get a hold of him. He made promises to call and never did. Just terrible. A complete waste of my mo...ney. Thankfully I didn’t give him all the money upfront. I will definitely be reporting him to the bar association.

HORRIBLE ATTORNEY!!! HAS NO IDEA WHAT HE IS DOING!

I hired this guy for a case and he took my case for granted. First, he sat on the case for weeks without doing anything. This adversely affected my case. To make matters worse, he failed to communicate with me as a client. He ignored phone calls, texts, and emails. Spends most of his time on social m...edia making himself appear more skilled than he really is rather than zealously advocating for his clients. I would not recommend this attorney to anyone. Horrible service. I paid his full fee without complaint and he did not treat me like a valued client. I could go into details but I will reserve the details for the bar complaint that I plan to file.
