Bad Attorney

This was my attorney appointed to me by the courts. I could not get in contact with him to go over my case. We only spoke a for a few minutes before I would see the judge. Very rude each time. He seemed to be best buddy’s with the District Attorney, always laughing and talking with them. I asked the... Judge if he could be removed from my case and explained why. The judge granted my request and he was removed.

Not a proper defense attorney

After two court appearances he moved quickly to have me enter a plea. Asked me when I would be ready to go to jail when I told him things were moving too quickly, i felt rushed to take a plea. No criminal background but facing misdemeanor charge. I never received copy of criminal complaint or review... of the discovery. I assumed in his professional experience he would provide those to me. I asked to judge to withdraw him as counsel after he raised his voice at me before court. I watched another client of his complain to their family about his tactics. Its been 8 days since court and He has yet to provide my file to public defenders office or myself so I can obtain new counsel before court in 6 days. Poor defense attorney. Maybe a defense for criminal law isn't the best fit.

Attorney with a Temper attude problem

I would not recommend Mr patrick wait for your attorney let me say the money you spend for attorney is what you will receive so dont expect anything on your case to be done right or done at all !!! After my case from him practically nothing i still got Bolth charges on me and I had no criminal backg...round on me I expected to least 1 charge dropped from destruction property and domestic and the charges were from my wife but she wanted to drop all them but I didn't expect to get Bolth charges dropped in wisconsin. Patrick wait told me he talked to D.A and told me I will be charged with only destruction property with I agreed to !!! We went to court (( they charged me with Bolth )) I almost went to jail with no criminal record!!! Later months later when I called patrick wait the attorney for questions on probation HE SHOUTED ON PHONE and started swearing at me and said why should I help you cause I made this review on him. Don't use this attorney he is pointed out any from garentee funds from the state you are better off getting your own attorney I had to pay 2 attorneys to get my job done.
