Do NOT hire this lawyer...you will be sorry!!

I, and others, hired Andrew Wyatt to represent us in a real estate case against the Marshall Reddick Co. Mr. Wyatt said the case was very winnable and in fact told me that this was the second case he was bringing against Marshall Reddick. He said that our case would follow behind his first case. ...He never told us that he was a plaintiff in the first case, and that it included equity partners of his. Right after he took our money, he stopped communicating with us. The only time we would ever get an update from him, is when someone in our group would send out a forcefull email to Andrew, and the others, telling Andrew that they were going to contact the BAR if he didn't give us an update. After a couple years, our case gets thrown out of court (and we are then told by Andrew that we would have to refile the case in Florida and hire a new attourney...and pay more fees ). A short time later we found out that he won his first case (the one that he told us was identical to ours AND the one that he and his equity partners were plaintiffs in). Later that year, Andrew sends us an email that states that he could now represent us in the bankruptcy case against Marshall Reddick ( we all knew about this case, as we were contacted directly by the trustee in that case already). He said that if we wanted him to represent us in this new case, we would have to sign a new contract with him and pay him a new retainer fee. I am told that no one in our group signed this new contract to hire him (because he did a horrible job on our original case). Now today, many years later, we are supposed to finally get some cash settlementfrom this bankruptcy case, and Andrew ha petitioned the court to have the checks made out with his name on them (along with the individual plaintiff), so that he can get a cut of the winnings. Again, no one hired him to represent them in this case. He had already lost our orginal case and kept all of the money we paid him for that case. I would never hire him again and advise anyone else to do some serious homework if they are even thinking of doing so. I am sure that the good reviews you see on this website for him are from his equity partners in his other case that he won for them (and himself).

Hard Working Lawyer

Andrew worked really hard on my case. Despite the issue with the way our legal system works, Andrew stood up against corporations with lots of money. Even though money rules in our legal system, Andrew was able to achieve a 6 figure settlement. I would highly recommend Andrew as your ...lawyer; he is very thorough and knowledgeable and will fight hard for you.

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY!!!!!

Andrew Wyatt is a wonderful attorney who represented me in court for my divorce. He worked very hard, is tough and dependable, and was able to attain the things I had hoped for in court. He wasn't intimidated by the opposing attorney and did not back down from getting me child support and custody. ... He is exceptionally knowledgeable in the law and gave me sound legal advice. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking to hire a very good lawyer !
