Dont do it

Me and my wife retained this lawyer to handle our case and he never answered our phone calls after he recieved his retainer fees its been over 2 years and my case still have not been resolved this is unacceptable. When you call him he sends you to the voicemail and every now and again he replys with ...a text with false promises to call you back. Save yourself a headache and find someone else to handle your business if you want it done right and in a timely fashion!
