poor service after taking my check

Mr Brodsky charged me around $4,500 dollars ( i later found the fair market price was around $1,500). He made one court appearance, told me to plead guilty. for my next court appearance he did not show up (he was in LA at his other office. he had originally tried to get the judge to change the date... to accomodate his(Brodsky's) schedule. The judge said no. So on the day of my court, no lawyer. call his office and they say they will get a lawyer over to me.. i hired Brodsky not the guy he sent that was 2 hours late. my third court appearance Brodsky (over the phone) said he didn't need to be there and told me what to say. So basically represented myself on that one...took my money then put very little time or effort in...

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
