Michael R. Nevarez

Mr. Nevarrez was hired by me to represent the estate of my mother, in november of 2017. He had me file a civil suit in texas on property she owned as well as change the probate from new mexico to texas. Countless emails and phone calls were made to both Mr. Nevarrez and his paralegal. These calls w...ere unreturned and emails unaswered. The only time it seems I was able to get a hold of him was when I needed to pay him money. We went to court in June of 2018 where he could not even remember the case or the people involved when he got before the 3rd judicial court. the judge was so angry at our unpreparedness that he put a $500,000.00 bond on me as executor and would not honor the civil suit or texas probate change because he said Nevarrez should have known that my mother died in new mexico therefore everything would have to be handled in new mexico. When he filed the civil suit he gave the respondents 30 days to respond , they did not, and called him repeatedly to see what the next step was , he would not return my calls. The last step was when he did not produce the judges orders. I was forced to fire him and hire another attorney.I have asked for my records back since July 29th. I have also asked for a return of at least half of the $11000.00 I paid him , to no avail.
