Not Recommended

I recommend checking with the AZ State Bar and/or doing a public records background check before hiring this man. In hindsight I cannot recommend him. Jeffrey Blackman actually obtains some of his business through a referral arrangement he has with another lawyer named Dennis Grey, where in exchange ...for the referrals he pays Dennis Grey a 10% finders fee. In other words 10% of what Jeffrey Blackman charges, goes to Dennis Grey. Jeffery Blackman withdrew from my case before it got off the ground, claiming "the attorney client relationship was broken". We had only appeared for two five minute continuances of pretrial conferences but he claimed he had done almost $13000 worth of work. Dennis Grey had even returned his 10% to Jeffrey Blackman, and Jeffrey Blackman kept a portion of that too. I ended up hiring another lawyer who charged less, and did a better job.

Replied last May 13, 2015

Prior to Dennis retiring we did have an arrangement where I would give him 10% of any fee generated in any case he sent to me. This was stated in the fee contract that this man signed and was ethical as Dennis was involved in the case through the discussions we would have. I withdrew from the case because the attorney/client relationship was in deed broken. This man threatened me. I was physically afraid of him. This man is not being candid about the work I did. He was furnished with a detailed statement. I cannot remember if Dennis kept his 10% or not. I do remember that he was troubled by this man's conduct, both in the the cases I was involved in and regarding this man's contacts with me, in person and in writing.
