Peter Holzer

I retained Peter Holzer’s services on 4/30/14 for an easy “Lease To Own” contract for a house I was renting. I met with him and he said the cost would be $500 and he would draft something up within a weeks’ time. OVER A MONTH later on 7/8 and after many messages for Peter to get back with me this..., his assistant Linda sent me a title report and this email. Email…. Mr. Miller: Mr. Holzer has asked that you review the attached property profile. It seems to contradict your understanding of the status of title. According to the property profile, the agreement that you are requesting Mr. Holzer to prepare will be completely ineffective. Thank you. I called Peter and he finally called me back and was completely confused and did not remember what we were doing because it had been so long. He had a lot of papers and an agreement explaining who is purchasing what. Then he finally sends me a title report because of the person that was on title was not me. THAT IS THE REASON FOR THE LEASE TO OWN. I had to explain things again to him. After many promises to get me something “by tomorrow” or “later today” and many messages, he eventually stopped returning my messages. NO return phone calls at all. On 7/15 I was fed up and I called and told the receptionist to relay the message that I wanted a refund. On 7/16 Peter sent me half ass agreement. Some of the information was wrong and another attorney looked it over and said it was not done correctly. At this time had no faith that any real time or energy was spent on my agreement anyway and would have to seek other options to get this done. I asked for my money back and this is the reply. “ I will not return the entire $500.00 to you; instead, I offer to refund $100.00 to you. Please consider that offer seriously. Thank you.” This attorney has wasted my time (almost 3 months) and money and now I have to get my money back. Don’t let this happen to you! DM
