Michael H. Rotman

I was referred through the Chicago Bar Association referral service. Mr. Rotman was put on a $500 retainer to write one letter to opposing counsel in an attempt to close out a personal matter. After the initial consultation - I never heard from Mr. Rotman again. I never was copied on the correspon...dence nor did he ever follow up regarding the outcome. After several months, I wrote to Mr. Rotman to close my account. He then sent me a bill for nearly $300 in additional services that he claims he performed - none of which he has provided copies of to me nor was he even instructed to do so on our behalf. His website states the initial consultation is free; however, that too, showed up on his bill. I wrote to Mr. Rotman asking him to review our account and correct the bill. He ignored my letter and just sent another bill. I will be filing a complaint with the IARCD.
