Bogdan Alexander Susan

After doing extensive research with friends and past MU Alums, I decided to hire Bogdan. Generally, he has a great reputation in the Columbia area. Maybe my charge was harder for him to "knock-down" than i expected, but I have heard of similar MISDEMEANOR cases with a much lesser harsh result. Bogdan... handled himself with a lack of integrity & professionalism. Disappointing because I paid Top-Dollar. After taking my money,Bogdan;1) Pushed my court dates back more than five times (didn't ask for it, didn't want it pushed back 9 months) 2) on most occasions, failed to return my phone calls and E-mails. 3) Arrived to the courthouse very late, very unorganized, and said absolutely nothing to the judge that i couldn't have said myself. 4) settled for a terrible plea in which I for some reason agreed to plea guilty; meaning my record is forever tarnished (although it's a misdemeanor without conviction). I Had to do a few days of Jail time & Multiple years of supervised probation. His performance in the court room was a joke and I strongly feel he coerced me to accept the plea bargain so that his work would be finished. Before court, he acted as if everything would go smoothly and I would go without a tarnished record. I Had no idea jail time was even on the table. (I have no previous record of any kind) So when the judge gives me time to think about taking the plea bargain I; panic, listen to my lawyer, and take the plea bargain. BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE. I think about this every day and it's years after the fact. Still haven't a decent job . Even though this guy is supposedly good at dealing with Traffic, MIP, and other related charges, he handled my case like a nub. I STRONGLY DISCOURAGE HIRING BOGDAN AS A CRIMINAL DEFENSE LAWYER. I hate this guy. Definition of a big, tall, grease-ball rat lawyer. (But he does seem like a pretty decent dude outside his practice)
