Bad Lawyer

My husband and i hired Mr. Lafuente on a criminal case back in 2009. Mr. Lafuente didn't do his job right. Half the time he never showed up for court. Right now he isn"t able to practice law in The State of Texas. If it was up to me I wouldn't even give him one. He is no longer at this address.

Piece of crap lawyer!!!

This is the WORST lawyer ever!!! Acts like he will handle your case and get it done...then never shows to court, never answers calls, texts or emails! He is a piece of crap! Spent several grand for him to handle my case and he just ran off with the money!
