Michael Scott Shipwash

I hired this Lawyer for an accident that I was in and was very pleased with outcome that I got. He did recommend settling out of court but that was for my benefit. I have been in a lawsuit before that did not settle out of court and it was drawn out for several years. He made sure I was informed abou...t all aspects of my case. He was very upfront and honest.

We hired Lawyer Mike in 2008. I will not discuss our suit because for one its no ones business and another its not over. So far he has done great work for us. He does return any question I have. He treats you more like friends than clients. As far as I;m concerned he will be our attorny the rest our ...life. He knows his stuff. People dont realize they have more than one case and to people can hurt thier own cases to. The is always gonna be someone who dont like somebody. You really want a lawyer that stinks. Get a few we've had than you can talk. You cant win them all. But we think hes a great person and lawyer.

I also found this guy in the phone book. He told me I had a good case. His secretary handled all of it, He never returned phone calls, I did all the leg work in getting the paperwork together. Then after months and months of not hearing anything from him, right before Christmas he advised me to set...tle and not go to court, It was over a back injury and after he reviewed my medical records he said "you went to the dr for a back problem back in 92" (which was nothing to do with my current injury), so he didn't believe me. Now, I am now disabled after I settled out of court because of him. He is an arrogont, unprofessional joke of an attorney that will not do anything to help you.

DOES NOT FOLLOW UP WITH YOU AND LET YOU KNOW UPDATES. SECRETARY DOES NOT GET INFORMATION TO YOU AS NEED BE. HE IS NOT VERY TRUTHFUL BUT HE IS KNOWLEDABLE OF THE LAW. DOES NOT CALL YOU BACK. DISMISSED MY CASE AFTER HE TOLD ME I HAD A CASE AND THAT IT LOOKED GOOD. DOES NOT LIKE TO GO TO TRIAL. FOUND A ...LAWYER UPTOWN WHO TOOK ON THE CASE AND IT WAS TAKEN CARE OF. THE NEW LAWYER CALLED ME AND LET ME KNOW CHANGES AND KEPT ME ABREAST OF EVERY THING. MR. SHIPWASH IS ALSO VERY UNTRUTHFUL AND NOT VERY ORGANIZED.

Does not call you back when you have questions. Does not keep you informed. Very knowledgeable but he is very misleading and not very truthful. Did not handle my case well at all. He is very slick and deceitful. I actually found this young, man in the phone book. He said all the right things but did ...not do all the right things. I previously used Attorney Buckhalter for several matters and he was great. Just decided to try something different. Bad mistake...If anybody else knows this lawyer plus post so we can inform others on his dealings.
