Review

He is not a good lawyer by any means, my girlfriend just recently had to deal with him in court. She truly is not guilty of her crime, and the only thing he offered her is a plea bargain for a plea in obeyence. She specifically ask for this to not be the outcome. When she said that was not what she w...anted he said "fine but we are going to loose" and told the judge he needed a trial date. Then he stormed out of the courtroom leaving the judge, and my girlfriend standing there in confusion. A plea of obeyence is an admission of guilt, and she is being pushed through The system and bullied around. This is not justice and I am sick of the way the system does this to people. And he does have misconduct by the way, he was arrested in 2010 for doctor shopping. And he looks like he had some drugs in his system in his booking photo. He does not take his job of defending his clients seriously because he doesn't get paid to.
