Jipped?

I met him around November of 2018 with my mom and made an account on his site and transferred $1000 to him. I have a school loan that went from a small amount to an insane amount 25 or so years later. DOE won't do a thing and I kept hitting a wall, so desperately needed help. His website makes it see...m like he wants to help and the perfect lawyer for my situation. He has only responded a couple times...once saying I hadn't sent a Power of Attorney so I sent screenshots from his site proving I had. Another time showing he actually said that he did something (probably some cut&paste letter he uses for others) to the creditor with the WRONG SSN for me!! I have had a $9,000 tax return taken from me, and $3000 return taken, and each year this is costing me nearly $9000+ in interest for the amount of time he is taking. I feel he should work this case for free to make up for what I am losing. I am a teacher on a single salary and supporting 2 kids and my wife. I am in dire need to have my issue resolved because the government has me by the gonads and this lawyer has the power to do something wonderful that would have a huge positive impact on me and my family but doesn't help! I seriously can't even afford him and had to borrow from my parents, making this even more painful for me. Maybe he will actually read this and his heart will actually be touched enough to treat me like it was his own family be affected. Sean B

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I contacted Mr. Gamez by email and phone message. He called me back right away and left me a voice message and then called me a 2nd time to respond to my earlier message. In my opinion, prompt call backs are very important and a good indication of the interest a lawyer has in the client's matter. As a fellow lawyer, I read some of his answers to requests for information from the public and found them to be accurate and helpful. Mr. Gamez gave me a suggestion in my case which I believe could help unblock a stubborn credit reporting agency continuing to report incorrect information. I recommend Mr. Gamez to any client's needing help with credit repair issues. There are so many unqualified people claiming to be experts, it is a pleasure to find one who can actually perform and not just talk."
