This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Mislead me and mishandled my case

I hired Ross via the Lampin Law firm to defend me in a criminal case. After hiring him, he continually delayed my surrender, telling me the judge wasn't available, the prosecutor was busy, etc. After nearly a month of waiting for him, I was finally arrested. At the bond hearing, the judge decided ...I was a flight risk, and rather than reducing my bond, TRIPLED it instead. Ross did not once mention I had hired him a month earlier and had been waiting to be surrendered. He was remarkably quiet. After making bond impossible, and knowing I wanted to plead not guilty, he asked the prosecutor for a deal. When the deal was 90 days shock time, followed by probation, he simply left me in jail. He stopped taking my calls, and stopped coming to see me, for two months. Instead, I would be surprised by monthly court dates (no one informed me of), and met in the court room (cuffed & shackled) by one of his associates who would tell me nothing, and just ask the court for a continuance. 4 months after hiring him, 3 of which I spent in jail, I fired him. The case turned into a complete disaster I ended up being held nearly a year. He kept the $2500 I had given him upfront.

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.
