3 YEARS TIME WASTED DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

I had the misfortune of hiring this firm in 2020 to handle a VA Disability Appeal. Year after year, till yesterday, they did absolutely nothing. Weren't even sure if any records release went to the '2' facilities I was treated at. Totally not ready for my hearing which they postponed to 'get ready'... (hahhahahahahhahaa!) Yeah.. Anyway, they blew it. They performed no work, didn't get records because guess what?? Records don't just muster on station at their office without VALID AND CONTEMPORANEOUS requests, which didn't happen. 3 years of time wasted. They self ejected because they knew they were in way way above their heads and couldn't perform because they didn't even request records. Had I researched them I would never have hired them. IF you want your case to go nowhere, hire these guys! It'll grow MOSS!!!!! note: Just because a person 'served' in a branch of military, does NOT necessarily mean they have your back...or are equipped to do the work. I should have asked what their MOS' were!!!

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.
