Hired for paid consult on the merits of two immigration issues. One was challenging and one was mundane. The associate lawyer was 30 minutes late for scheduled appointment. I had to contact this law office over three times in 30 minutes. I paid $125 for this disorganized, unprofessional attorney. ...

Replied last January 28, 2020Hello Jeffrey: First of all, thank you very much for your feedback and for leaving this comment here on Avvo. Feedback like this is painful for me to hear at the outset, but at the same time is critical for me to improve the operations of our firm. I am sorry to hear that you found my office to be 30 minutes late, disorganized and unprofessional. The truth is that we always strive to be timely, organized and very professional, so I wonder what went wrong there. If you would be willing to contact our office again and ask for me directly, I’d love to look into it in more depth, and at least offer you a refund for having wasted your time. (Did you know that we offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee with our consultations? Since you are not satisfied, you are eligible for that refund!). Second of all, my office has recently gone through a transition amongst our associates, and I take it to heart the feedback you’re giving. Going forward, I will make sure that all of our associates are ready and able to give advice that live up to our outstanding reputation – by being of high integrity (starting on time) by being very organized and thorough, and by being respectful, culturally competent and professional. In the meantime, I wish you the very best of luck with your case and legal issue.
