Nasty nasty little man. Fired his butt.

No communication with me during the filing process. After a year, I Emailed him asked if he was still in business and the man totally freaked out. Way over the top.

sneaky

His office called me to come in. I was under the assumption he was going to go over case and what he was going to do in my best interest for my case. enter office he ask me one question I had all ready answered numerous times, ask me if I had any Questions, I told him a concern I had that could effec...t my case and he dismissed my concern that I knew would be a big part of my case. This all took about 10 to 15 min top. From then on he shot the breeze about Politics and small talk. Charged me by the hour to shoot the breeze with him. I lost all trust and dropped my case. He also charges everything in lawyer price, there is no lower cost for what assistant do. Everything is bundled at top dollar lawyer fee. He also showed very poor judgment in my case overall.
