All I can say is poor

If I was not so involved in trying to save myself after what little he did do to represent me I would try to sue him for malpractice. Jeffrey did not take the time out to go over my case with me, did not answer my calls when I tried to call him. I had to keep calling him, make a appointment with him ...and send him an email to get a response. The only thing he told me was your are going to get a felony and you need to let me know what you want to do at this date. He did not do any research on my case or take the time out to help me out in anyway and it showed badly.

Replied last February 15, 2021

I've always prided myself on my ability to communicate with my clients. I give them multiple methods to get in touch with me and I always return phone messages and emails by the end of each day. Likely, rather than lack of communication, the problem here was their disapproval regarding my honest assessment of the viability of their proposed defense. Unfortunately, without knowing who this person is, I can't review this case, address this anonymous individual's complaints, or even confirm that this was actually my client.

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.
