Clueless lawyer!

1. Probably one of the worse lawyer anyone can hire! 2. His lack of professionalism and incompetence are astonishing. 3. When he took on the case, we spoke on the phone and he assured me it will be a "slam-dunk" for him as it's a simple traffic ticket. 4. The communications with Mr. Chang were al...ways off, he didn't keep me updated with the case unless I keep messaging him. His answers were always just few useless words. 5. At the court date, he didn't even ask me to show up, he just sent me a text message that he lost the case and I had to pay the fine. He even texted me with the wrong fine amount! 6. My brother in law had the same exact ticket at the same court, and he was easily able to get it dismissed by a written declaration. 7. When I spoke with Mr. Chang on the phone, he was very dismissal, then he said it's nothing, it's just a fine (what was the point if hiring him in the first place then?!). 8. He also went on blaming me with non-sense lecture. 9. Lastly he started going in circles that he's a bottom feeder who takes little cases hoping to make some money out. 10. I later knew that his performance at the court was awful, he barely spoke, and and he looked like a joke. 11. If you are looking for a lawyer, go somewhere else, he is the WORST!!!

Highly Recommended

I highly recommend Robert Chang, he took care of our bankruptcy case. He was knowledgeable, reliable and always got back to me timely. He explained everything to my husband and me and made what could have been a bad experience, not so bad. You can't go wrong working with Robert Chang.

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.
