Appointed Attorney

Do not hire this attorney. Maybe if he was getting paid, he would do a better job. However, he was appointed to our case. He is not nice, and he does NOT return phone calls. He is just one of those attorneys that every day is just another day for him. He does not care about the interest of his clien...t, nor does he have the experience. He was never up to speed during our first meetings, had never read the case. The biggest thing for me is returning phone calls. I called, called, left messages to no avail. You just have to catch him when he's in the office, and hope that you are not bothering him. We did not win our criminal case, and the outcome could have been better. Find someone else if you have any hope of a favorable outcome.

Felony case

Mr White was appointed to me by the courts. I have not seen or spoken to him in 5 weeks now, since our initial interview. His office does not answer the phone calls nor does he when calling the residential #listed on his business card. I have no idea what is going on with my case. Also be advised tha...t after speaking with over 200 inmates at LCDC nobody but 1 inmate have heard of him & that person said Mr. White railroaded him & did a very poor job of representing the case. I would strongly advise you to replace him ASAP if he got appointed to do your case.

What a waste

Steve was a let down. He showed up to court chewing tobacco and continued to chaw and spit into a Styrofoam cup throughout my child custody hearing- seemed quite disrespectful. He flat out ignored me at times, did not ask agreed upon questions during questioning, refused to call witnesses and seem no...nplussed at the loss. He was kept on retainer for follow up questions but would not return my calls. When I finally reached him in his office he wasn't interested in answering my questions as my file had all ready been put out of reach. I felt I was not well represented by Mr. White and that another attorney would have done more for me.
