If I could give zero stars, I would. Communication throughout the entirety of my case was almost nonexistent. There were many instances when I called the office and was told he was not in and that they would leave a message for him to get back to me and he did not. He prides himself in giving out his... mobile phone number to his clients, but getting ahold of him was not much better than calling his office. His voicemail (both for the office and his mobile phone) were almost always full. I sometimes went months without hearing back from him even when I was told I would hear from him within the week. I practically had to hound and beg him and the office anytime I needed to communicate anything relating to my case. The only real time I was able to communicate with him was after complaining about the lack of communication between us. Communication was better for a fewweeks, but then the problems continued soon after. Additionally, I had several medical bills that went to collections and are now hurting my credit because he and his office overlooked them when going over my case, even though I had supplied his office with every medical bill I had received. When I conformed him about my concerns he became upset and accused me of misrepresenting him. He got my money though, so I suppose that’s all that truly mattered to him. I would not use him again and would never recommend 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.
