A BIG mistake hiring this one.

I was rear ended and this attorney settled leaving me with OUTSTANDING medical bills, he was unprofessional and untrustworthy!!

This review is false. No case is every settled without the client agreeing to settle AND a breakdown sheet is presented to client to review and sign BEFORE any injury claim is settled and closed.

Rude

Been meaning to do this review for a while now. He's arrogant and do not care about you are how you're feeling. He talks to you in a way that makes you feel like you're the gum on the bottom of his shoes. Very hot tempered and rude. Does not know you from one client to the next. Maybe he needs Xanax ...or something b/c he is always on 100 with the way he speaks. I have never dealt with a person where I had to com out of character to get him to respect me. You may have to fire him if you have serious injuries and get "The Hammer" getting another attorney was prob the best thing I've ever done.

A LAWYER THAT COMPANIES ARE AFRAID TO SEE ON YOUR SIDE

I was injured in a fall at Woodlands Mall due to renovations but an absence of barricades. My fall caused a shoulder injury that required corrective surgery. Despite the severity of the injury, I was given the run around by the mall, the construction company and subcontractors, as each blamed each ...other. The first lawyer I hired told me that a lawsuit had to be filed and he recommended me to Mr. Criaco. Mr. Criaco explained to me why the companies were giving me the run around and how it is a tactic to delay. I did not like what I was hearing. Mr. Criaco warned me not to blame the messenger, as he explained to me that we will always tell me the truth about my claim whether it is good or bad. I took a deep breath, trusted him and shortly after he filed suit all the companies got together to resolve my claim. Companies and their insurance pay claims when they are afraid of the lawyer that you hire. I now see why they were afraid of Mr. Criaco, as he really does take cases to trial. I would (and I have) recommended him to friends. Mary F.

Not a good lawyer

I hired this person and regret I ever did. I was rear ended and suffered injuries. He did not care about anything but getting his third. I was left with outstanding bills and no money for future treatments. I also believe he dealt in an underhanded way. I would not recommend this one to anyone.
