unreliable and undependable

Matt Jones accepted a real estate case, I paid a retainer. Since then I have seen nothing he has done. I have asked for a meeting to go over this case and see documents pertaining to this case, He will make an appointment then cancel on the day of the meeting because he is sick, or a household emerg...ency, or a unexpected guest, a birthday party. The couple of times he did keep a meeting he said he is working on something and the next meeting he is working on the same thing and it never gets done. He will not answer phone calls from you. You can leave a message and he will not return your call. Working with Matthew Jones can be a very frustrating experience.

UnResponsive and unreliable

I hired him for evicting my tenant for non payment of rent. He showed up in the court and negotiated the deal. After that he vanished. He never returned my call. He suppose to mail me the court docs but never got it back. I am struggling to get the copy still.
