I had a terrible experience with Rick

Rick represented me in a bad situation and he only really called when the other party’s lawyer called him to complain about me. He bullied me into signing a deal that said I couldn’t file anything with the town I live in because the other guy worked for the building department but he was going to rep...resent me in all matters. That was until the other lawyer called him up and forced him to abandon me. He told me that I could attend public meetings and vote but then I got charged with four counts of violating the terms of the agreement that I refused to accept and he said I had to because the judge was going to make me if I didn’t volunteer to sign … but he was going to be a good guy and help me work with the town on the other party’s violations of the old kings highway act. I can’t believe that I had that happen to me and his arrogance was so destructive to me that I probably can’t ever dig myself out of this hole. He’s going to be fine though, he only sold me down the river and I didn’t matter to Rick. I’m in such a bad place that I won’t matter to any lawyer I try to get to help. It’s a disaster and ok by him.
