Posted by EDWARD | July 11, 2026 | Hired Attorney

My Recommendation, don't hire Maury Mills.

How is Maury Mills listed as a Super lawyer? He is incompetent and lost a very import case for me. EDWARD G MUMPOWER v. ENGLAND] Mo. 07-55037 ... Edward G. Mumpower appeals from the district court's order dismissing his employment discrimination action for failure to serve the summons and complaint in a timely manner. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for an abuse of discretion. Townsel v. County of Contra Costa, 820 F.2d 319, 320 (9th Cir. 1987). We affirm. The district court did not abuse its discretion in the context of this case in dismissing Mumpower's action without prejudice because the circumstances did not compel the conclusion that his attorney's admitted failure to review the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure excused his failure to effect timely service. See id. (holding that counsel's ignorance of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure does not constitute good cause). Mr. Mills told me he screwed up, wrote judge asking to reconsider due to his negligence. Then told me he owed me money for what my case was worth. He filed bankruptcy to avoid my lawsuit.

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.
