Nice Guy

I called this guy to see about writing up a contract for deed as the buyer. Unfortunately, the seller backed out. As I consulted with Mr. Pruett, he took the time to ask questions about my life. He was patient and kind. Everything that he was thinking about (such as trust, etc.), we had already d...one. He affirmed that we were on good ground and, while concerned about us being covered in our case, was never pushy. He seemed like a genuinely nice guy. On an additional note, I am appreciative that some lawyers know what some lawyers know. I can't tell them strategy, timing, or anything else. Unfortunately, I have been around the block with lawyers. What I can say is, find an attorney you can trust and then trust them. I believe I can trust Mr. Pruett.

Wasted my time with personal injury case

He wasted my time on a personal injury case. He was charming at first, he wanted my case and he wanted me to be loyal to him, so I was. He kept asking for more information which I provided and he kept putting me off. After several weeks of this, he said he did not want my case. He did not call to te...ll me. I had to call him to find this out. When I asked him why, he said I had a great case, but his partners decided because I did not want them to call my other attorney who charges me by the hour, and because I wanted to get answers for them, I am the type of person who will want to micro manage things too much. They must have something to hide if they don't want customers too involved.

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.
