Posted by Ryan | October 15, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

I got swept aside

Had someone fraud me and I won in court. Was looking for him to help enforce judgement and collection. Felt confident after talking with and hiring him but then never heard from them again unless I constantly e-mailed. Never recovered anything. I think all they did was file one document with the ...county and send a letter to her job. He said he helped people file bankruptcy all the time and knew how to recover from them, but maybe he's just there to protect them. I don't know. Having a hard time trusting lawyers to handle my case after this.

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.
