Posted by Jon | February 25, 2024 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

He violates client confidence

Justin, multiple times, exposed my defense to the court and he has represented me twice without permission. He also uses his brother in law Travis Morrison as "special sitting clerk" to keep you from being able to file complaints with judicial ethics board. The Hurst family has a long criminal hist...ory. I have not been able to find an attorney to help me because it is known that they "own Hot Springs".
