THE WORST ATTORNEY ON THE PLANET

this attorney was the most awful attorney i have ever seen in my entire life something out of a MOVIE awful...His assistant Lynn was rude ghetto and thought she was the attorney, this attorney NEVER INFORMED me of any of the ways we could proceed with my case, he actually caused me to have to pay ano...ther attorney so i could get the case dissolved, he promised the original plea agreement took care of all my cases then to find out while in prison that IT DIDN'T!!!!

for the sake of your case/pocket book , PLEASE READ!

My husband and myself were able to do little research before we selected Paul Cushion as our lawyer due to the timing of our case. Had we been given the time, we now know we most CERTAINLY would not have chose him. We were skeptical from the get go, as he is a criminal defense lawyer, and our case wa...sn't this type -- he assured us he had experience and was ready to take on our case. I can't express how unhappy we were with his "service" he was extremely unprofessional, paid little attention to what we had to say, frequently cut us off mid sentence, even took lengthy phone calls in the middle of our scheduled meetings! I don't recall a single time I left his office feeling calm or reassured my case would be ruled in my favor, in fact it got to the point of questioning just what his relationship was with the lawyer from the opposing side .. In the end he actually denied us service unless we followed his game plan! I couldn't possibly give a low enough rating!

Excellent knowledge and Trustworthy

This was perhaps the best attorney I have used. He knows the law, you can trust him, and he is accessible. I highly recommend him.

"I endorse this lawyer. Paul Cushion has become a good friend of mine and been an indispensable mentor with respect to questions I have asked him pertaining to criminal defense and clients' civil rights. Paul Cushion is one of the hardest working lawyers I have ever known; he practically lives in his office. If you need legal assistance, Mr. Cushion is your man."
