Tremendous Advocate

Will handled 3 home closings with outstanding attention to detail and clear communication. He is true advocate who made the process smooth and stress-free—I’d highly recommend!

Total Jerk

Takes the easy way out. Didn’t let me finish the story before getting frustrated by his own assumptions and practically hung up on me. Doesn’t want to do the work and do what’s right, just wants easy cases. Disrespectful and arrogant. Hostile and rude.

Calm and good negotiator. Very professional . Very good lawyer.

We are the defendant to the lawsuit. He got us out of the case so quick. He is very smart and a good negotiator. He communicates well with us and explains the legal aspect on a common layman's term. He is aggressive but calm in demeanor. He took over our case and had it resolved in 2 hearings. Excell...ent Job.

He is a disgrace to his profession

1 review If i could give a zero I would!!! I feel very strong that I have been treated poorly and unfairly as his client, and I am writing to tell you save yourself A LOT of heartache, and find a reliable trustworthy decent lawyer. My case is straight forward, all I need from him is to come to cour...t on return day and get me a trial date. He complicated me with a lot jargon, but never explains to me the whole process. When I asked him to explain procedures, he yelled at me: "I charge flat rate, don't email me or call me till return day!" He never never copy me emails to the other party: what he was hiding I would never know. I prepared my trial presentation very thoroughly with over 200 pieces of evidence, winning would be no doubt. But he threatened me if I don't agree to settle ( I doubt if he has a deal with defendant's lawyer) he will not help me, and forced me to pay extra if I go for trial, which is against our contract. He lied fervently about collecting procedures. While I am distant away, he creates a distraught, helpless, confused situation for me. He is as indecent, despicable as the defendant, if not worse. I am truly, truly disappointed! From the bottom of my heart, and most sincerely, stay away from this lawyer, he is a disgrace to his profession!!!!!! P.S. all my friends who went through this with me urged me to write a bad review for this lawyer. I am also considering filling a formal complaint to bar association.
