Posted by anonymous | March 28, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Ethics & Professional Responsibility

I would not advise anyone to use him to anyone

I hire him and he didn’t represent properly. He helped the other party plus he doesn’t stay in contact with you. He also works as an assistant district attorney for Houston County and that is conflict of interests for him to take a case before the judge at Houston County courthouse in Dothan Al and w...orking for the DA. He filed the cases one way for jury and it was handled a whole different way.

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.
