Avoid Like the Plague

Avoid like the plague. Took my case and told me that I would be end up with a specified amount if I settled out of court and then later, denied ever having told me that. Would not have settled the case if I knew that he was being untruthful to me. Didn't seem to care about my injury, not good at retu...rning phone calls and would not utilize professional witnesses to defend me in court. Wanted me to pay for them up front, knowing I did not have the money to do that. Had to settle the case against all my better instincts because he refused to take it to court. Very difficult to work with.

  • 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.
