Brian Robert Pingor

HORRIBLE ATTORNEY!!!!! VERY RUDE. HUNG UP ON ME. DISRESPECTED MY FIANCE. TOLD ME HES NOT MY ATTORNEY EVEN THOUGH IT SAYS ON MY COURT PAPERWORK RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME SIGNED BY THE JUDGE THAT HE IS MY ATTORNEY. HORRIBLE ATTITUDE, AND AGAIN VERY VERY DISRESPECTFUL. I WILL NEVER IN 10,000 YEAR RECOMMEND B...RIAN PINGOR TO BE ANYONE ATTORNEY UNLESS YOU WANT JAIL TIME.

I hired him on behalf of my friend in which I had Power of Attorney over. He talked very professional and promising as if we had many options. However, once he was paid he did not even recognize our name without his file. My friend sat in jail over a year while Brian kept rescheduling. In the end, he... wanted us to side with the state and did nothing additional. We could have went with the free PD for that type of service. There were multiple occasions where after speaking with him I would follow up his answers with the clerk of court and find that he did not even answer my questions correctly. I wish I read the reviews first.

I engaged Mr. Pingor to represent my son in a criminal matter. Mr. Pingor was, in my opinion, able to work magic in the situation. He was able to persuade the Assistant State Attorney to reduce my son's charges which allowed us to resolve the case short of trial in a very favorable way. My family c...ouldn't be happy with the extraordinary job Mr. Pingor performed.

Apathetic to say the least. I chose this attorney because of his excited attitude on the phone. Long story short I was waiting in my car for my ride to come and get me, and the fact that I had been sitting outside waiting on them caused him to say "Oh that's an easy one! You paid the tab at 1100 and ...the cop found you in the parking lot after midnight shows you weren't going to drive anywhere". So that, and researching him on FB made me think he was the guy for me. Boy was I wrong. He put off the PTC for 7 months. I thought it was gathering info, doing paperwork stuff etc. In fact, the letter he was to send to the state that said I was waiting on my cousin never got sent. I asked for copies of the letter, asked if I should send the letter, asked what info was needed from me for the letter.....all I ever got was that "Brian will take care of that". Being that he never asked me for the name of the person coming to get me (information he said he would NEED for the letter) it's safe to assume it never got sent. As of today (almost 8 months after my DUI arrest) I've still received no copies of the letter. Also, I spoke to this guy ONE TIME before my case. Kelly the receptionist was the only helpful person there. He basically blew smoke up my behind and acted like he was doing something when in fact there was NOTHING GOING ON. My attorney friend said likely he kept postponing the PTC so that he could line a few clients up for one day. Who knows... On the date of my ptc, 7 months after my arrest, he showed up late to the courthouse and walked right by me and proceeded to talk with the bailiff guys. Basically ignored me. By the time he finished talking with them he got a plea agreement and told me we were gonna just "get it all done today" like we were going to ask for some kind of break. Basically the guy had me sign a form that plead me guilty...basically there was no need whatsoever for me having an attorney. I could just as easily have plead guilty from day one and LITERALLY been done with my suspension! I thought what we were doing was getting adjudication withheld but that wasn't the case. Long story short, I am speaking to a local attorney and will file a complaint with the BAR. DO NOT use this guy as an attorney. He is terrible and in my case did absolutely none of the things he said he would.
