Knowledgeable and available

We met regarding a labor case involving my employer and an ongoing Disablity discrimination and retaliatory harassment case. Even though we have not formally filed any charges because of special reasons, he already knows what he has to do to reduce expenses and get the end result we would like to see.... He has measured the cons against the pros and gave his opinion based on what he knows about my employer and the type of courts we have here in Florida. My impression is that He is very knowledgeable and a matter of fact which I value in a lawyer. I appreciated his honesty even if it was not information I wants to hear. He offered his expertise opinion on how to deal with the case which was a wait and see after I am fired. Even though I’m not happy with having to continue to be harassed and the hostile working conditions I am being subjected to, I know that he will be the best to represent me because he has a plan in place. Immediately after my consultation, I provided over 700 pages of my evidence to him and with a small consultant fee he reviewed it over several weeks. He then scheduled me a few weeks later to discuss the plan and the pros and cons of my case. He did not charge a second consult fee and advised me of the approximate amount it would cost me to hire him for arbitration. He already knows the direction my case will have and what he needs to do. Based on this I feel he is competent and trustworthy. I am confident that he will deliver when the time comes. If you want to consult with an expert labor attorney please do not hesitate to meet with him and get the opinion of a true specialty attorney.

NOT RECCOMENDED. VERY BAD

took $3500.00 then withdraws without ever doing sufficent work to respond to pending motions used for age discrimination case. this caused me to have a $600.00 judgment against me. When asked if they would fix the situation they just said I should pay the money.

We accepted the client in questions age discrimination case and took it through discovery and into mediation. In his deposition two days before the mediation he admitted that in a unpublished 10th Circuit case, the United States District Court had found that his expulsion from pharmacy school for plagiarism was "substantially true" The client in question failed to show up on time for the mediation two days later even though he had verbal and written notice of the mediation. The Court assessed a fees of the mediator against the client personally for his arriving two hours late for the mediation. Over a year latter, he has not paid it. The client demanded that we pay his assessment and said that if we did not he would file a negative report on Avvo, which he did. I moved to withdraw when the Defendant moved for summary judgment because in my opinion I could not file anything on his behalf which would not be frivolous. As an officer of the court, I am precluded from wasting the court's time on a matter which is meritless, a condition we learned two days before mediation.
