I approached Charles Agege for help and informed him that I would need to make payment arrangements for his services. I gave the phone number for me and my elderly mother who would be helping me with the payment. He agreed, but the very next day I received a phone call from my mother saying that sh...e was duped in a scam call out of $1000. Being older, she was unaware of what was happening. Supposedly someone had posed as an amazon worker who'd made a mistake, and convinced her to give them remote access to her computer to "help with reimbursing her," by opening a command prompt program on her computer. I checked the lines of code in this, and one of the lines read "Charles Agege." I cannot make any specific allegations, but I strongly recommend that you, at the very least, do a plethora of research before consulting this lawyer or giving him any of your information.

I was going through an extremely difficult time in my life when Dr. Agege was recommended to me by the California Bar (first mistake). Without reading reviews I met with him and hired him based on his friendliness and apparent knowledge of the law and reasonable price. Not to bore anyone with the det...ails but he basically held my settlement for ransom (the wrong way; not me getting $$) and when I saw the bill it was 3x what was promised. He blew right through his retainer and charged .75 hours for something as simple as reviewing a document. SHADY! My friends who are lawyers in different fields said if they gave a client a bill like Dr.Agege gave me, they'd be fired from their firm. Stay away. I've moved in and 2 years later am back on track. I'm not a jealous ex lover type who is making this up. This actually happened!!

I hired Mr. Agege to push paper after my previous attorney took my unlawful detainer case to the 10-yard line, then disappeared. I needed someone to simply get the squatter and his opposing counsel to sign the settlement agreement that my previous attorney negotiated so we could take it before the ju...dge and have it recorded in court. For this Mr. Agege charged me a retainer 4X the amount my previous attorney charged, and again, for the simple service of finishing an already negotiated settlement. To Mr. Agege's credit, he discovered a precedent case that rendered the aforementioned settlement far too generous. But instead of going back to opposing counsel to renegotiate, he thought it more important to preserve his professional relationships than serve, me, his client. In my opinion, Mr. Agege breached his fiduciary responsibility by releasing the settlement funds to the squatter without ensuring a) the squatter had moved out, and, b) the return of the remote control to the property gate, which was a condition of the court filed stipulation. Moreover, Mr. Agege’s failure to comply with the very stipulation he drafted showed a total disregard for my interests and that he was merely interested in ending this case because he already got paid. In fact, when I expressed my dissatisfaction because he did not follow the signed stipulation and released funds without ensuring the return of the remote control, he did not accept responsibility, and said “it was not a big deal" and if I wanted to get the remote back, the onus was on me and I would have to pursue it through small claims court. Only after I threatened to file a complaint with the California State Bar, report him to the Better Business Bureau, and post a review on social media sites, did he retrieve the remote control, five days later. And if that’s not enough, it’s been almost two months since the case closed and I have not received any sort of billing reconciliation from Mr. Agege documenting his hours. I’ve asked for this three times, to no avail. My two cents (because that’s all I’ve got left after retaining Mr. Agege!) find another attorney to do your bidding.

Beware of this lawyer. He is not knowledgeable. He pisses Judges off. He is argumentative. He is not knowledgeable. He botched a case of of mine. He should not have taken the case. He made so many errors that had he been a really sharp attorney I would have won my case. He is not well educated or ...experienced. In all the years i have used a lawyer he is the worst. Be very very care and don't use him unless you want to lose your case.
