dissatisfied customer!!! #3

misconduct: of Harvey Curtis Crowley I hired this attorney October of last year in Madison County for a DUI charge pending against me. he advise me to plead nolo contendere on a 0.02 DUI in Mississippi Rankin County Justice Court. he told me he will appeal it in a higher court which he had to do i...n 30 days. I have called his office on a number of occasions which no return phone calls back. I talk to his secretary on occasions and she told me his messages were received. After asking why my calls were not return. After that I receive 2 phone calls from Harvey Curtis Crowley I asked him what progress has he made on my case advise me I had to pay court fees. I had no problem paying for the fees. I asked him what are the total court costs and get back to me. after waiting a couple days i called his office again. no return phone call after that. I called his secretary reminding her that the 30 days is almost up for filing the appeal and to tell Harvey Curtis Crowley to file the appeal and I will pay the court costs. I get a notice of my license being suspended. i called his office and ask why I got this notice. I talk to his secretary and she don't know why and she will have him call me. After going to the courthouse and inquiring about the notice also learn he did not file the appeal and I was held in contempt of court for that. That afternoon I called his office and asked for a explanation for all this. the secretary said she will give him the message. no calls returned after that. I later discovered that he had not done any work on my case for 4 months. fees payed to Harvey Curtis Crowley $950 + some. I had to fire this attorney. I am stuck with this charge on my record because of this attorney. I have found out ex clients of Harvey Curtis Crowley having similar problems. please be aware perspective clients this is true and factual to my best ability

dissatisfiied customer

I was a client of this attorney. He was to assist me in completing a commercial transaction. He charged me $200 up front, then did nothing. He does not respond, and he does not do the work he was hired to do. Do not use this lawyer.

Mr. Crowley is a joke!!!

Mr. Crowley was hired to handle a criminal case. He was given a retainer to get started and agreed to show up for the first court date. He took the retainer but he failed to show up for multiple court dates. He never responded to my emails or phone calls. I drove to his office and his office was ...closed. I left a letter at his office asking him to call, but he never did. The prosecutor on my case attempted to contact him also and he never responded. He is very unreliable and did not return my money. Please don't use him for anything.

FAILED TO RESPOND

MR CORWLEY, failed to take a case that he accepted in good faith. I am still waiting to get my sister-n-law's money back. Harvey Crowley never showed up for court. I would not refer this lawyer. Madison county justice court has issued a judgement that we are trying to collect for $543.00
