Pompous. Incompetent. Condescending.

I knew it was a mistake to contact Jamie after recalling his disciplinary action in 2016 but I thought I’d give him a chance. My initial consultation with Jamie consisted of a spontaneous, random five minute phone conversation in which he listened to absolutely nothing I said. Instead he acte...d like I couldn’t understand an elementary concept that he was purveying. He seemed more interested in the sound of his own voice and collecting the $20k that he quoted me rather than actually considering how he could be of assistance. He went on to brag about how he had been an attorney for 13 years (with an asterisk*) as he gave out incorrect information about possible courses of action. Obviously this was not a pleasant or productive experience. Fortunately, I have found a much more informed attorney that has my best interest at heart versus his ego and his wallet.
