Look elsewhere for Counsel.

If I could give less than one star i would. My mother recommended him and maybe he considered it a favor but i would have rather paid someone 4x as much for more attention. After hiring Tompkins , meeting him once, and giving him the first portion of his fee, I never saw him again. My court case was... pushed back 4 times a over a period of 10 months due to his inability to show up. Finally, he had a different attorney (not associated with his office) show up for my initial hearing. Proceeding from here I had 3 different lawyers (none of which were part of his firm) show up to court proceedings. 5 years later, I am currently attempting to enlist in the military and came to discover Tompkins Law didnt even have my police report on file. After hours of calls and tracking it down, i found the document and saw several inaccuracies in the officers report. I'm not sure if this would have affected my case but either way it contained inaccurate information. There was little to no consideration given to me or my case.
