Did a terrible job at making my case and did not put any effort into making contact with the school. Never spoke to an attorney after the initial consultation meeting. Had three or four different attorneys throughout the course of my case. There was a point when I spent four weeks trying to get in co...ntact with someone at the office. Left several messages with no call back. Didn’t have any positive movement in my case and will likely have to hire another attorney.

I paid K Altman Law $16,000 for an expulsion and Title IX attorney. After taking my payment, communication almost completely stopped. I went six weeks with no updates, no guidance, and no response at all. Then on Aug 19, I finally got an email saying the lawyer I hired, Amelia Lafont, was “no long...er with the firm” and they were still trying to figure out what happened with my case. I was never notified she left. No replacement attorney. No transition. No plan. No work product. To this day, I have not been refunded the $16,000, even though I did not receive the representation I paid for. I’ve now filed a formal complaint with the Michigan Attorney Grievance Commission and am submitting a claim to the Michigan Client Protection Fund. This whole experience has been extremely upsetting and unprofessional, and I don’t want anyone else to go through this.

Rating: 0 out of 5 stars Review Title: Took My Money and Vanished I hired this lawyer for help with an appeal and paid $11,000. Aside from writing the appeal, they did nothing I was aware of. Communication completely stopped after I paid. No returned calls or emails — total silence until I termin...ated the agreement. They claimed they did other work, but never communicated that to me or provided any proof. They’re refusing a refund and using the signed contract to justify it. I feel completely scammed. Be very careful before hiring this attorney. Money does not match service rendered. They need to be reported to the bar association or disciplinary board. Life is already too hard for people to use their power to take from people that actually need help.

Do not hire this "Lawyer", or his firm; I made that mistake and I will share the experience. I contacted Joseph Lento and he brought Keith Altman in during the initial consult April 2021, all three of us on conference call. I explained my severe issue with a university pharmacy school administration... involved in mass cheating cover-ups followed by retaliation against me for not condoning the cover-up. The retaliation included multiple years of accusations, manipulations, and persecution to force me to quit, fail, or be removed; including falsifying my transcripts and IRS 1099's. I formally hired the duo, signed the contract and payed each lawyer $5000.00 November 2021; Keith became the main contact and litigating lawyer for the lawsuit. The lawsuit was for abuse of power, force the correction of my transcripts/ files, pain and suffering for 8 years of hell of a 4-year program. Keith said "don't worry, we got your back". Keith Altman expressed to me his ability to practice in the Northern district of Texas where the school is located. I knew the school to be dishonest, but they would not roll over; this was going to be a fight. 22 months later, this lawyer rolled over. I supplied a deposition, hundreds of emails, official documents, audio files, and video files to Keith Altman during consultation with interns beginning Jan 2022.We provided a demand letter; Keith Altman reviewed, signed, and sent to the school June 2022. July 2022 school response was to refuse correcting transcripts but informed the transcripts were sent to the National Board a year earlier, unbeknownst to me. Keith instructed to begin the formal complaint/ grievance. Communication at this point became mostly unsuccessful. Keith failed to disclose the lawsuit filed against him by Joseph Lento whom accused Keith of stealing clients and not paying him; discovered while investigating Keith Altman law due to lack of communication. April 2023, I learned Keith was unable to practice in the Northern district of Texas and was trying get licensed to practice or find a local attorney for help with the case. June 2023, Keith asked if the formal grievance/ complaint was ready, the intern and I answered in agreement; Keith responded this to be his marching orders to begin the official lawsuit. I was unable to get updates for the next 2 months. September 2023, Keith contacted the National Board without consulting me first. He accepted their response without question, decided the case was over, quit without filing the formal grievance, and refunded his portion of the fee ($5000) received November 2023. On the conference call, Keith told me he agreed with what I was standing for and I was correct, but just give in to the school, get licensed and then ask the school to correct the transcripts. When questioned, Keith said to just file the formal grievance myself if I wanted to continue the case, he provided the grievance with a short letter saying I experienced a "hard time in college" giving the exact same false information as the school concerning the transcripts. I believe Keith was paid off by the school to quit the case. A person cannot agree with fraud to get licensed and then go back and question the fraudulent records. I consulted another attorney and was informed the statutes of limitations expired, (November 2023) and possible legal malpractice by Keith Altman. I contacted the National Board and asked detailed verification questions. The board wanted to go over my transcripts, I gave the same details, documentation, and emails provided to Keith Altman. The board followed up by deleting the transcripts based upon the discrepancies the school hid. If Keith provided the detailed documentation with questions to the board, they would have provided proof of dishonest manipulation/ activity by the school. The school ruined my education and killed my future career; Keith Altman hammered the final nail in the coffin. Why did this lawyer not do his job, was he paid?
