Posted by Anil | January 22, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

unreliable, procrastinator, full of excuses, disorganized

Unfortunately We did not retain this lawyer from AVVO. We retained him for 2 cases until resolved he wanted full cash upfront for total cases. we gave him , yes we are stupid to do that even though he said he has some problems which i think he was in financial problems. after about a year he withdre...w from the cases and left us alone without lawyer and now we are about to loose (dismissed )both cases worth very big amount because we do not know the law and judges will not wait till i find the lawyer. He kept all the money and has not returned any retainer fee yet but has promised few times that he will but never does. Be careful please. we wasted years on this cases and we lost all in a year. He never understood what the cases are all about because he was paid in full in advance. good luck

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.
