Personal injury

Mr Smith was honest, respectful and concise when he was representing me for my personal injury case, I'm very happy with the outcome of my settlement and his dedication to see my case through. I highly recommend Mr Smith for any issues you may have in civil litigation, personal injury, family law, o...r landlord tenant disputes.

Dishonest

He took money to prosecute the civil suit . He used some of the money to file suit and made sure they were NOT served in time. He didn't file until the last 3 days so that we couldn't drop the case and refile. He found out that we couldn't use ORLTA to prove the ownership of the structure that ...was illegal and responsible for the injury. This was in a mobile home park and the structures have to be in the written rental agreement. I didn't have a written rental agreement and that is on the owner's of the park but you have to use the Landlord & Tenant Act within one year to prove it. One year had went by and Joseph found out too late but decided to do his client wrong instead of telling me the truth. He knew l would learn in court what went wrong so it was easier to do me wrong. I didn't get the bad news for about 110 days. Joseph is shameful !
