I hired this lawyer a couple years ago for my criminal case. He charged over $50,000 to provide my defense through trial and sentencing. He did absolutely nothing. He never even looked at the evidence in my case. All he did was try to push me into a shitty deal. He is probably the worst negotia...tor I have ever seen. Very inexperienced! The District Attorney ran him over every time we went to court. It was very embarrassing. When I informed him that I would not plea and that I wanted to go to trial, he created a conflict of interest and motioned the court to be removed from the case. He kept all the money even though he only worked half of the hours he was supposed to. I had to be appointed a public defender after spending all my money. It was DEVASTATING! He is extremely expensive and not worth the money. You can get the same defense from a public defender for free. He has no ethics, is a liar and should not be practicing law. There are plenty of good lawyers out there. Don't make the same mistake I did.
