Horrendous communication

My father hired this attorney for workers compensation and I mean this man has the Poorest communication I have ever seen. A follow up would be fantastic through phone call or email. Emailed this guy in April and no response regarding my fathers case. It takes literally 5 minutes to respond to an ema...il, if he is too busy to respond by a phone call. He should have been honest from the beginning and tell my father he’s communication is horrendous and he isn’t a good fit, therefore he doesn’t waste his time nor my fathers time.

Find someone else

Poor communication and follow through with clients. Does not reach out for MONTHS at a time about status unless you contact him first. Moves at a snails pace. Does not take into consideration peoples lives are on hold because of accidents or conditions. I get it, you have bigger cases on your hands a...nd my case wasnt worth much in their eyes, but dont waste my time either. Everytime we went over workers comp case details, it was as if it was the first time we discussed it. Did a poor job of representing me, honestly wish i wouldve chosen someone else. By the time i realized communication was going to be a problem it was too late in the case to switch lawyers. 3 years later and i received nothing. My case was denied by arbitrator and appealed to commission I believe? then denied again? I only know this because I had my case number (which was not provided i had to google it myself) and was able to look up status and details on the court docket. He never let me know! Would not recommend! Do yourself a favor and find a more aggressive lawyer whos going to actually fight for you.

It's not that I have bigger cases, it's that going to trial takes time. Your case was denied by an arbitrator because it was a very difficult case to prove, and I explained this throughout. I appealed your case to the Commission, and it was again denied, because it is a very hard case to prove. Most attorneys don't take on difficult cases because they require extensive amount of work, but I do take them to trial because I like representing the little guy. That I took your case to trial, and then appeal demonstrates that I do the work other attorneys won't do. Not every case can be won.
