WORST LAWYER IN TOWN

Worst lawyer in town. Very unorganized and doesn't care about his clients. He won't fight for you and just get you to plea deal no matter what. His office is very dirty too. Take your money elsewhere.

Poor Attortney

Mr. Hatter has been my fathers attorney appointed by the state of Texas but has failed to do an adequate job of listening or even acting like he cares. It is obvious he has already presumed my father guilty without a doubt. I would not recommend this attorney to anyone as I have called a couple time...s and he sounded very annoyed that I even called him. Use someone else!

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.
