Run allllllll the way in the opposite direction!!

This guy is horrible! He is condescending, rude, and unprofessional. He talks about God and abortion and other inappropriate subjects in his office. My daughter spent thousands of dollars for representation, and he actually told her that her case was going to be a sh!t show and that she would lose w...hen actually she had all the evidence against her babies father, who is in contempt, at least on three separate occasions . He canceled an hour before the scheduled court date, he demanded more money actually refusing to answer even the simplest of questions while shoving a credit card machine in front of her demanding more money. I couldn’t believe what I was witnessing! I looked at my daughter and said we are out of here and as we turned to leave, he was yelling get out, get out! This person is not normal He has obvious issues I wouldn’t hire him to represent my dog. Beware!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
