Michael T Chulak

I’m a former client of Mr. Chulak and am also a lawyer myself. During my case I had to fire him and An associate Mr. Leittermeyer from my case. In Los Angels County Bar association arbitration, which Chulak failed to attend, I was awarded approx. $3,700 against Mr. Chulak. Instead of paying m...e the fees that he owed me he filed a small claims action against me seeking to vacate the arbitration order . He did not appear at the Trial and the judge entered judgment in my favor. He does not return my calls nor answer my emails asking for payment. Now I’m forced to take action to collect the judgment including a judgment debtor exam on June 21, 2018. I will also have to file a complaint with the Bar for violations of professional conduct! All of this for a return of $3,700 for a case he and his firm botched. As an aside I had to hire another lawyer who resolved the matter. All I can say is Shame! Would you hire a lawyer who treated his client and fellow lawyer this way?
