If you want an attorney who doesn't care this guy is for you

No stars. He is completely ineffective. I retained their services In july of 2021, as of this day January 21, 2022 Mr Haught only knew me by name. Knew nothing of my case and to my knowledge did nothing to advocate on behalf of me. Assumed he knew everything about me generally-knew nothing and when I... became upset bc he had done nothing for me, he withdrew bc he doesn't get involved in the appeal process at this stage and we are in stage 3 of 5. When does he get involved? In my case he didn't. At all.

Melony from Alabama

I can’t say enough of Mr. Bruce Haught. Not only is he very knowledgeable of his job and to the point. Mr. Haught is very honest and up front he will not lead you astray ,listen to him and he will advise you every step of your case. In my opinion he is a winner for the person or persons he represents.... Mr. Haught staff and Michelle is worderfull any information I needed or did not understand Michelle word explain things for me. With that said Great attorney Mr. Bruce Haught equals great staff you can’t gone wrong with this group of people. Melony from Alabama 4-13-21

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.
