I hired this attorney in July 2024 and paid the fee for representing me against a car dealership and have only received a couple of responses from him even after my numerous calls and emails. He has done nothing for me on my case to date and will not communicate back. Find someone else... do not us...e him. I am going to file a formal complaint with the Florida Bar.

First like most of the reviews, I wish I had believed the few I read. Just don't hire him. He strung me along for years. YEARS. Just when I thought he had actually given up, he'd email me with an update. Usually about once every three months. This was all supposed to be finished by Feb 24, but the l...ast I heard from him was Oct 23. The first red flag is he wanted to get paid via cashapp. I wired him the money. I checked the bar and he's in clear standing. So I had to hire another lawyer. They checked to see if he ever filed anything. Nope. Zero. Nothing. This car is becoming a nightmare and I needed HELP. Hopefully this new lawyer can finish the job and of course more money. He's just a liar that works out of his home and uses an answering service. 20 years ago I would have driven to his house and got my money back one way or another. He's going to cross the wrong guy one day. I dunno if I would scam people and use my home address. Either way, do not give this piece of crap a dime. Honestly at this point I'm not even sure if he's alive. Crazy thing is no one can give me proof of life. I finally gave up calling. I would ask the answering service if he was alive. They couldn't answer. I put my lawyer on that task, they don't know either. I just wanna know if this clown is still on this earth

Hired this attorney to assist me with my case against a local dealership. While consulting with him, response time was fantastic, as soon as I paid his retainer ($2750.00) never heard from him until I fired him. I had to resolve the issue with the dealership myself and when I disputed his fraud retai...ner fee, he threatened to sue ME!! Can’t do anything to help with the dealer screwing me over then joined in and screwed me over more. Stay away from this guy unless you have money to throw away.

All communications and consults are held via email. When he decided that this would be a case he would represent he presented a confusing fee structure. I asked him to please give me a call to clarify his fee structure before moving forward and have a small talk about the case, he ignored it. I propo...sed a contingent fee structure to protect my interest and incentivize his efforts if he were to get us what we wanted. Apparently that pissed him off. He made it clear he wanted his fees upfront, which would have been fine if the conversation was done via phone and had he introduced himself and clarified his fee structure. I also asked him to give me timeline and a communication cadence because I wanted to know how often he and or his office was going to keep me updated with the case. Again I got silence. All of which are red flags and a clear Indication that this was not a professional relationship I wanted to establish. There are thousands of attorneys and the schools are printing more of them each year, run away from this guy and find a good one that demonstrates he or she really cares about you as a client.

Hired this POS and he stole my money and has refused to return any correspondence. Despite his lies, he has not done any work on the case. I am about to file a lawsuit against him although it doesn't appear that he has any possessions. I hope he has malpractice insurance but I doubt he does. I fi...led a police report and complaint with the Florida Bar. Astonishingly, I just learned that my complaint has moved up to the Grievance Committee with the Florida Bar. IF YOU HAVE HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THIS SCUM, THEN FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE FLORIDA BAR. Let's stop this scumbag from ripping off others.
