Daniel M. Muza

Mr. Muza took a case for me that he had absolutely no knowledge regarding the laws that governed the case. He never informed me that he was not capable of fully representing me. I hired him and he insisted on a retainer of $2,000 upfront. Less than 18 hrs later, he claims that he used the entire $2..., 000 It was obvious in court that he had not read the details of my case. When I sent a polite email and asked for at least $1, 800 of the retainer back (allowing for his 28 minutes in court and another hour of prep-which he sis not do) he told me not to contact him again. I then attempted to call his office. His staff claimed he was unavailable and I left a message that I would like to speak about a refund of unused fees. He emailed me back again stating that I was harassing him and that if I emailed or called again he would file harassment charges. I will be filing a formal complaint. Because he took the last dime I had, I am unable to hire a competent and honest attorney.

This Lawyer has helped me (In Public Records Winnebago County) with a Class E felony and faced less amount jail time due to letters/correspondence From Atty. Muza regarding jail credit. It was only that one time he had a jury trial scheduled for someone else couple years ago while i was trying to mak...e bail on a bogus misdemeanor charge, but he has kept me out of prison and advised me to stay out of trouble and what to wear at the courts.
