Posted by anonymous | March 24, 2015 | Car Accidents

I didn't have any contact with him specifically...

I talked to his clerk and receptionist more than I talked to him. I was in a car accident that I was not liable for almost a year ago and I decided to go to this attorney because the owner of the collision center I took my vehicle to recommended this place and knew one of the clerks. Eventually, we d...id settle the claim I made, but it took them about six months for an agreement to take place. I did have to make numerous phone calls to see what the status of my claim was.

DO NOT HIRE THIS LITTLE MAN

This is a man with a bad temper, he's rude, infantile, and a pain-in-the ass. He is over-taxed, misses appointments, and is horrid in ever way imaginable. He NEVER EVER calls client's back, he misses cases and motions, and my case needed to be refiled, costing me more money. He's very incompetent.... DO NOT HIRE HIM - there are many more good lawyers out there.

a professional and attentive lawyer

Mr. Maynez met with me personally and explained in detail my options. He offered me opportunity to think things over and was efficient and professional when I came back to sign up.
