Don't hire this lawyer!!

The second week of May 2022 I hired Michael Solock to represent me against a protection order riddled with lies and half truths. From the beginning I got nothing but judgement and inefficient counsel from him. Michael would often ghost me, I tried to reach him many times and he wouldn't return my c...alls or answer my text. My ex was allowed to retain my apartment until I could explain my side of things, I had, and still have over $200,000 of stuff in there, she has maybe 1,200. I wanted to move my belongings out because in a text she said she would sell everything and burn the rest, Michael wouldn't file a motion to remove them and told me that tops they'd only give me maybe 2 hours to box and remove a 1,200 square foot apartment. Because Michael wouldn't file the motion and they only allowed me once chance to remove things the cops gave me maybe 25 minutes and I was only able to get cloths meds ECT. Now there's a chance I'll loose everything including my daughters baby pics. During the first hearing my ex admitted that she wasn't concerned with her safety, just when she would have to move. The entire issue was safety!! Michael ignored what she said and didn't address the statement to the judge, the entire nightmare I'm still currently dealing with could have ended 3 weeks after it began if Michael would have just done his job. Instead of getting it dismissed on her statement as well as proof I gave Michael almost 2 weeks before the hearing it was pushed 5 weeks, it would have been 4 weeks but Michael asked the judge to push it another week because he was unable to do it then. Keep in mind I'm renting hotel rooms the entire time which I couldn't afford. For the next few weeks Michael kept ghosting me!! Had an appointment with Michael a week before court of so and Michael canceled it. Finally I had to fire Michael but still needed very very important info for my next court date. Michel refused to provide it to me and instead got very petty. It was a zoom hearing and I had to take a 50 dollar Uber to the court house to get the info, an hour before court Michael finally sent the info to me but I was already at the court house. Now because Michael didn't do his job I have to wait until late December to finally tell my side of the story, something that could have ended in three weeks has now turned into eight months. Michael is very egger to take your cash but very lazy afterwards!! I'll be reporting Michael to the Bar Association and well as the better Business Bureau!!
