Review

He represented me against a former client of his that he represented in years past{ which I think is illegal} I can see why he has been reprimanded by the state. In my opinion he is not to be trusted he will turn on you even thou he knows you are innocent like he did me in my case. Knowing the facts... he demanded I plead guilty after hearing from the witness that i did not commit the crime accused of. Then filed an an appeal to withdraw my plea and ask for another attorney. Good luck I would not recommend him.
