Worst attorney. ..

Hired him for employment issue never filed it. Then made him my divorce attorney worst attorney I could of pick. He doesn't have a secretary . Doesn't respond to calls or emails. Had to do all the paperwork. Doesn't file motion on time. Gives away my bond money from another country from another case.... . Getting ready to get a hold of the bar association. Warning do not hire this attorney. You will be sorry. ..

Doesn't respond to phone calls or mail

If I could've not chose a star we wouldn't have. We've been waiting over a year for him to respond to paperwork we sent him asking him to review it & let us know if he thought we had a case. We told him if he said we did we would then send him a retainer fee & proceed with our case. I've called him m...ultiple times & hearing him tell me he was just about to look at the paperwork or he read it & thought there might be something & he'd call me back. To date, he has NOT EVER CALLED ME BACK! I'm extremely frustrated & don't know what we ever did to be treated this way. At this point we want our paperwork returned to us. We hope to find an attorney in the St. Louis area that would entertain our potential case & let us pay them to proceed.
