smooth talker

Smooth talker over the phone but he didn't show much enthusiasm in the court room. He was more concerned with keeping a good rapport with the judge and opposing attorney than defending me. Was late for several court dates which ended up costing me since I also had to pay child attorney fees. There we...re also a couple of occasions that he didn't file the correct paperwork. He also rescheduled several court dates and charged me court time to just sit around for hours waiting to reschedule. After about a year of no progress in my case, mostly due to rescheduling, I got tired of getting nickeled and dimed and fired him.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
