Incompetency

He could not defend his client's interest in the court. He only not objected to present client's evidences to the judge, but he could not simply give a closing statement when asked by a judge. Also, he could not argue to discredit the opponent’s denial to a signed affidavit. He simply accepted whatev...er statement the opponent made without scrutinizing the opponent’s statement. He only not drafted, signed, and submitted a decree to the court without mutual agreement with his client and no signature from his client, but misconstrued the judge’s rendition which increased the client’s lost instead of helping to reduce client’s lost.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
