To make a long story short, my ordeal 2 years ago was a nightmare experience with this Attorney. From the beginning he wanted me to take my case to trial. I knew very well that was not going to happen and I just wanted to get a plea deal and end this ordeal. He was very stubborn and kept pushing ,me ...to take it to trial. Off course, that would cost me a few thousand dollars more. What upset me the most was the fact that while I was waiting for my court date, he hardly had any communication whatsoever with me and kept telling me "don't worry, everything is going to be fine". On my first court appearance, the District Attorney offered a plea deal and MY Attorney declined it without my consent!! I was being offered 30 days plus restitution. I had no idea they had offered me a plea bargain until a few court dates later, when they went ahead and filed a whole bunch of other bogus charges and requested the Judge to incarcerate me. I was taken into custody and spent almost 6 months in jail! All this happened in a 1 year period. The most disgusting part about this Attorney is that he went to consult with me only ONCE while I was in custody. Once again, he wanted to push my case to trial, which he knew very well that there was no point in doing that. He even said he had "a friend that would buy my car (for a ridiculous low amount!) so I can have some money for my trial. Overall, in my opinion he is very inexperienced in certain cases and thinks he can handle them, when common sense would have told him not to take a case he had no experience with! Dealing with him was a much more worse experience than the time I spent incarcerated.
