Joseph Odato

I AM SPEAKING ABOUT MY EXPERINCE WITH THIS LAWYER THEY CALL JOSEPH ODATO. FIRST ON THE LIST IS NOT LACK OF COMMUNICATION BUT NO COMMUNICATION AT ALL. WHICH WAS THE MAIN ISSUE I HAD WITH HIM. WHEN I CALLED TO CHECK ON THE UPDATE OF MY CASE I NEVER GOT AN ANSWER ABOUT MT CASE. HE NEVER SET ME DOWN AND ...GUIDED ME THROUGH MY CASE. NEVER DISCUSSED THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR CASE. THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE ENTITLED TO CONCERNING YOUR CASE. HE LFET ME IN THE BLIND SO WHAT I DID I TRIED TO WORK IT OUT WITH HIM ONE ON ONE THAT DIDN'T WORK. I THEN WENT TO THE MORGAN AND MORGAN CLIENT EXPERINCE HOTLINE THEY PUT ME ON THE RUN AROUND. I TOLD THEM I WANTED HIM OFF MY CASE THEY SAID OK TOOK MY INFO AND SAID THEY WILL SUBMIT IT. KEEP IN MIND I BEEN TRYING TO FIRE HIM SINCE LAST YEAR 2021. COME TO FIND OUT THE HOTLINE WASN'T SENDING MY REQUEST IN. I KEPT CALLING AND ON FEB. 7 2022 THEY SAY THEY PUT IT IN AND IT WAS DENIED AND I FOUND THAT OUT BY CALLING TO SEE WHY IT WAS DENIED. BUT IN MAY OF 2022 HE FILED A MOTION TO WITHDRAW FROM MY CASE AND IT WAS APPROVED. BUT IT'S FUNNY HOW FOR MONTHS I BEEN TRYING TO FIRE THIS ODATO GUY AND I COULDN'T BUT SOON AS HE DOES IT IT GETS APPROVED. FROM MY EXPERINCE WITH HIM HE IS NOT FOR THE PEOPLE. THIS IS SPECIFICALLY DIRECTED TO JOSEPH ODATO NO ONE ELSE AT MORGAN AND MORGAN. IF YOU DECIDE TO HIRE MORGAN AND MORGAN FOR A WORKER'S COMP CASE DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT HIRE THAT JOSEPH ODATO GUY. YOU WILL WALK AWAY WITH NO RESULTS AND MAD. REVIEW IS WRITTEN BY FONY'A CHISHOLM 2022.

Carla Campbell, Joseph's paralegal mentioned he was very busy with an overload of cases. She also said it would take time to get ahold of him. After waiting a week since I signed the retainer, I had my first call with him yesterday. After 15 minutes he rudely said "how can I help you here? Then he sa...id he had to go, and maybe I would be better off on my own." I was shocked that he would not take interest in my needs and was treated this way after signing a contract where he would earn 25%. I immediately asked to switch to a different attorney yesterday after this experience. The man who took my call said he filed a request for a new attorney to be assigned. I did not receive a follow up so I called back and was told I would need to request the change with Joseph. So they transferred me back to him, an todays conversation went worse than yesterday. He spent 4 minutes on the phone and said "I have to go I have mediations to attend to" he showed absolutely no concern for me or my needs. He then said to find another firm. I asked to speak with his supervisor as I want to stay with the firm and simply have an attorney who will be considerate of my needs as I am disabled and need more help understanding thing due to this. He then said he was denying my case which now means I'm not allowed to be represented by Morgan and Morgan further, all because I complained of the lack of service he gave me. I should not be dismissed from being represented on an injury that is worth representation simply because I asked to be transferred to another attorney. Joseph Odato does not take personal interest in his clients. If your not seriously injured or surgical, where the money piles up, he won't bother with you. Terrible experience with Joseph, and when I complained Morgan and Morgan, they didn't act on my behalf as the client. I called Berlin law firm the next day, and Stephen Berlin gave me personal top notch service and will be assisting me with my workers comp claim.
