Needs to be disbarred and prosecuted.

We hired Davis in 2017 for 5 class a felonies, very serious charges, in which we proceeded to ignore the case for the following 3 years. He directed his office to withhold information, cancel meetings he requested, and refuse phone calls/messages. We eventually had to hire another lawyer and the iss...ues were resolved in a matter of months, all without any help/input from Davis. I believe he, the AD, the bonds guy present in the jail, and possibly others are running a ring to keep up with quotas and maximize profits (RICO?). When my case was dismissed, we didn't find out for months because Davis was somehow unaware, even though the courts later provided proof they contacted him. Needs to be jailed.

Do not hire him!

He will request a large sum of money, no contract, and he doesn’t have to prove he actually did anything. He doesn’t return phone calls or keep up with his clients. He arrange a plea assuring his client that it would not entail jail time when in fact it did Include more jail time. He lied to his clie...nt. His one job and he failed. He is not to be trusted. Find someone else.
