Bad Reputation

David lacks knowledge of case law, and the ability to understand what I needed and how to evaluate my case. This made him the wrong lawyer. He was so incompetent and I expected more from this firm! I tell all my friends not to go to him. He is lazy, uneducated and does nothing! Thanks for nothing!

Based on the timing of the post and the positive relationships I have with my clients, I have concluded this reviewer is posing as a former client in an attempt to smear me. In order to see how my clients really feel about me, please see the other reviews posted on this profile. If you are interested in my educational background & training, please see the information on my main profile page. I may lazily do nothing some day if/when I retire, but for now I plan to continue working hard for all of my clients. If you wish to see for yourself, then please call my office to schedule a consultation. Thank you for taking the time to read my Avvo profile and reviews. Selecting the attorney you ultimately hire is an important decision and should not be taken lightly. You certainly do not want to end up saying something like this review and mean it!

WORST CHOICE I COULD HAVE MADE

David was referred to me by a colleague. Another lawyer in the same area of law also warned me of his reputation for having an immoral and unethical approach. David advocated using any means necessary, games and antics to intimidate the other party. David is extremely unprofessional and lack the matu...rity to practice law. He was very arrogant in telling me not to worry multiple times, I believe he just wanted the business. My unfortunate circumstance was made more so by hiring him. I was displeased with the representation David provided me from the start to the finish of my case. He lacked knowledge, professionalism and punctuality. He failed to provide me with updates and lacked communication, and he was distracted and disrespectful. It seems he was set on keeping the price of the case at an exorbitant amount. I would not recommend him!

I have reviewed my list of clients for anyone with the initials "MS" and I have concluded that this rating was posted by someone who was never a client of mine. In addition, the content of this review is suspiciously similar to the 1-star reviews posted by "anonymous," earlier, on this profile. Avvo does not remove reviews, so I hope my comments are useful to those who find this profile. To those who read this review, I assure you I do not practice law in the manner described by this person. I have never been disrespectful towards a client nor do I believe in intimidation. I also strive to keep the costs of a case as economical as possible, and I remain open and honest with my clients about their satisfaction with my services, the costs of their case, and their legal rights. I would not pursue a course of action in a case that my client did not authorize, and I would never pursue an unethical course of action even if a client was begging me to do so. Please see the positive reviews posted on here from (actual) clients for details about my approach to representing clients. The review itself strains credulity: If one is warned that their attorney has a bad reputation, only to learn first-hand that their attorney is an immoral and unethical person ... why stick it out with that attorney to the end? Especially if the representation is exorbitantly pricey? Dear "MS," I am sorry that you are so upset you felt it was warranted to post something like this, but what you did is wrong. This website is not intended for people to post false information by posing as a former client. I stand by my reputation and ability, and if anyone reading this is interested in a consultation please contact my office to see for yourself.
