Beware of thief

This guy is a thief, never worked my divorce. His pee ons do all the work. He kept my money. He uses his law expertise to rip you off. I wasted alot if time with this clown. His employees act with some arrogance. Seems rago doesn't care how they treat you. I called his pregnant employee and asked ti... cancel my dealing with him. She quit and they conveniently acted like I never canceled. Oh that girl doesn't work here anymore ,they said. Treated me like a liar. .frikken thief.

Delighted

I contacted Mr. Rago for help on my on going divorce case that was initially assigned to another lawyer whom I had hired. The case unfortunately was not being addressed, until Mr. Rago became my leading counsel. He was thorough with all the things required from me before our first hearing that was he...ard by a judge because of Jeff. He is well prepared and organized, his staff are excellent and work with diligence. Everything has worked in my favor due to the endless effort of Mr. Rago.

Betrayed

Rago was paid in full, provided with all the documentation he requested only to find the case was lost for 2 1/2 years. Client passed away so his services for a POA were no longer required, Rago believes he should keep the retainer even thought he never looked at the file 2 1/2 years to create a P...OA at $1300.00? The Jeffery Law Firm betrayed us and cost us incredible harm.

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.
