Incompetent

No communication, hard to track down, would not return phone calls, would not update us on the case, he even showed up late to court late,with wrinkled clothes and unorganized. Looked like he just flew out of bed. He was a total mess thoughout the entire case and then charged us for every call wh...en we had to find out what was going on. He billed us double what we agreed on. Don't know where he is now, as we would like to sue him for our retainer as he did not earn what we paid him for.
