IN A NUTSHELL MY DAUGHTER RECEIVED LIFE WITH BO PAROLE BECAUSE THIS MAN DID NOT DO HIS JOB!!! My daughter would be free… he did not show up for pre trial and kept telling us that he would get her out of the situation. TOLD HER THEY WANTED A PLEA BUT HE WAS NOT GONNA TAKE IT AND MY DAUGHTER AT 21 YEA...RS OLD RECEIVED LIFE WITH NO PAROLE! HE IS A CROOK AND I AM FIGHTING FOR MY DAUGHTERS FREEDOM BECAUSE HE SIMPLY DID NOT DO HIS JOB AS A LAWYER! DO NOT USE HIM.

Typical Bait & Switch; he got the retainer and then changed tactics and asked for more money before doing what he said he agreed to do in writing. He failed to show up for meetings with me, and has not returned my calls or emails. I found out all too late that he had been sanctioned by the State ...Bar for similar conduct - check him out first. If you have a criminal case, DO NOT TRUST HIM TO DO AS HE SAYS. He will tell you what you want to hear to get money, then do a complete turnaround on tactics and ask for more even more money. He will bleed you and plead you if given the chance. He did not do ONE THING he said he would do for me and has now put me in jeopardy in my criminal case. I can go on with more detail but he might try to sue me for slander and I don't have time for that, but I am suing him for a return of my fees and writing the State Bar to seek the appropriate sanctions against him. He has wasted six months of my time, the court's time,and I have had to hire another attorney to help me with my case. PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF A LOT OF STRESS, WORRY and MONEY - DO NOT RETAIN HIM!
