Absolutely Do Not Hire This Attorney

I did not hire him, he was court appointed. I have him currently now as an attorney. Super hard to get in contact with, He never answers his phone, Doesn't ever call me to check in to see if I have any changes that I want for my case, He shows zero commitment and interest, He doesn't seem to have any... experience.. it's almost like he is new to the game, Isn't aggressive about defending me when the court system is discussing negative things in & about my case, He forgets very important key points about my life and to even bring them up at the right time in court proceedings.. good things like when I successfully completed treatment and how I am a single parent, He speaks out of turn and talks over the judge and D.A.. I can honestly say that I am looking forward to firing him when my next court date comes about and I do not and I mean I absolutely do not feel comfortable with my life and freedom in his hands. I've had many public pretenders do a far better job. I do not think that this field and career is one that he should continue to pursue. I pray & have high hopes that this attorney can find something that better suits him in the future.

Not for you

Worst in the business. I understand he was a public pretender but come on. Wouldn’t answer the phone or make any contact at all. Just went along with the DA. The judge actually made the recommendation of what the sentence should be.
