Thomas Frank Martello Jr.

I came to Mr. Martello to get a restraining order against me dropped that was only filed because I missed the court date. This was important to me because the person who filed it against me is still using pictures of me in my military uniform for his business and keeps sending my young son letters. O...nce at his office he pulled me up online and saw I had a marijuana charge and only wanted to focus on that even though i had 3 months before we could file to get it off my record. On my restraining order he told me he would talk to the judge, get a page I was missing and make sure he can contact the other party then either call or send a letter in two weeks. At his office we only talked about my case for about 15 minutes and he talked to my friend who was with me about wrestling for 30 minutes. A little over a month goes by I call him on Friday and he says he is out of the office today but his wife works for the courts so its gonna be easy to get the paper im missing and talk to the judge and get back to me next week. Another two weeks goes by so I call him again on a Friday and he says he's again at home but this time he makes an appointment with me on Tuesday even though he still has not gotten the page I needed or talk to the judge and wanted me to pay him 300 dollars. Over the weekend I realized it was not smart but stupid to go with him on the restraining order, that I should only go with him for the marijuana charge since he has done nothing for it in almost two months like he said he would! Once I contacted to tell him he got upset and told me he wanted to drop my marijuana case even though I already gave him money to represent me! I wasted 2 months, money and my own time dealing with this guy! I noticed im his only review also so I wish I would have thought twice about hiring him or fire him after he did not come through the first time! This guy is a complete waste of time and money!
