Good lawyer

Charges were dropped and he was very adiment about the case. The cost was efficient and he did a great job.

Unprofessional

Presumed my guilt without looking at evidence, changed my plea without my knowledge or consent , then got angry and aggressive when asked why. My recommendation is : 1) Check his Bar Record & 2) Steer Clear

This is the fourth negative review this individual wrote who is a member of a prepaid legal program. He was doing 98 miles per hour in Collier County ( one of the strictest counties in Florida) and also received a second citation. We contacted him multiple times , by email and phone, including the day before the hearing to confirm what he wanted to do. He yelled and screamed at my Legal Assistant Courtneyvafter she tried to explain to him how to get on the zoom the following day. He then said he was going to fire us and then called back and informed my second paralegal Norelle, that he wanted us to handle, didn't have time to appear and just wanted no points. Just a very normal reaction when people admittedly violated the speed traffic rules especially 28 miles over the speed limit! At the hearing we're able to negotiate a Full Dismissal of one citation, and no points and no school on the second citation. The next day, Right after the hearing, we immediately emailed and called him and "he thanked us"! This is the care and attention hat we give to every one of our clients even if we're just handling a civil traffic infraction. It is also the reason that year after year we are ranked AVVO PReferred Attorney in client rankings as we are voted again in 2021.

First call was so abusive I had to end call

I had only given him one or two sentence summary of what I was looking for. This is no joke this abuse. Believe these people when they say that he treat you like a nightmare He must have a full schedule in order to just swap people away like their flights. I’m a well educated very polite well manne...red person. I was raised right and treat everyone with respect. So no matter what is written about this review I’m sure it’s a misrepresentation of how it went. Believe these people it’s shockingly true

He is not for the People He belittles women!

I just got off the phone with the most disrespectful lawyer I ever spoke to. You I called for a consultation about child support because my son's father is in prison I wanted legal advice for how thato works. He proceeds to tell me that I'm not getting nothing. And I that is for for the department of... revenue. That he helps men basically get revenge on baby mama's. That he actually helps only Men get child support. He then says he is over $200 per hour I can not afford him. And he starts yelling at me. So I asked why is he yelling I have you recorded . And he says to me good. I'm breaking the law and I'm an effing idiot for trying to get child support. I'm going to take this to cbs or nbs and see if they will listen. This is not business appropriate and that is not how you talk to clients.

So first of all this person is out of their mind. She contacts me and tells me that she wants child support for her child's father even though he's doing 25 years and he's a dirtbag. I tell her I cannot give you child-support I'm not the u.s. government. I tell her if she wants food stamps and child support she needs to call the Department of Revenue. I tell her its 7 at night mam and we don't get people child support . We get hired to get people's child support reduced!. I tell her that lawyers charge for their fees when they can serve you a purpose. This trashy human being was not happy with the fact that she can't get child support from Baby Daddy, even though the man's in prison! I tell her how can you get child support from him when he's doing 25 years?? She does not like the answer of course. She thentells me that she's recording me and demands money. I remind her that it's against the law to record someone and she can go to jail for that. She said she doesn't care, obviously she wants to be like her baby daddy. Sadly a lot of people in the last 8 years who have gotten used to free handouts don't seem to understand that handouts only come from the government. She woke up probably from sleeping all day at 7 at night and wants free handouts. Wonderful human being. Perhaps next time she can make better choices and not have babies with people who are going to prison for twenty-five years. You can judge my reputation in the other reviews versus this this rocket scientist who thinks lawyers can get her child support!

Part 2- Bad Experience

As the author of the review below, I will tell you that I most definitely WAS a legitimate client of this attorney. I would never hire him again and that is not why I decided to use anonymity. Based off of my experience with him and his staff, I feel that they did not deserve my business. As I said, ...the work was done and I was happy with the result but I would have rather given the money to a lawyer who has a better attitude, and an attorney who does not speak to a client on the phone using constant sarcasm and snide remarks. I found it highly unprofessional.

Well again certainly like most of my clients you are happy with your charges being DROPPED. That is off course what people generally want when they HIRE a lawyer "to keep them out of jail and prison". Obviously charges don't get dismissed by themselves unless there is some level of skill and experience that the lawyer must use to get these charges to be dropped. I can assure you my reputation with the State Attorney's Office is not of a timid flower. This is officially the first client that I've had in my 18 years who has their charges dropped and claims to be disappointed in how we "professionally"handled their case , while still getting it dropped! While your name remains anonymous, hopefully you won't be needing the services of a criminal lawyer in the future. None the less 99% of my clients speak with 5 stars. You have your charges dropped and give us 1 star.???.Yes that's immensely reasonable on your part.
