STAY AWAY FROM THIS LAW PRACTICE!!!

Not sufe where to start. .. we hired Don 6 years ago for our Chapter 13 filing. We were told we would be in the payment plan for 3 years at 200.00 per month only to have trustee hit us with 5 years and 600.00 per month! Don never fought for us we were told that the law changed and that we were stuck.... Not knowing all the legal stuff and being very fearful we played for the 5 years. Upon completion we had to convert to a chapter 7. He does not KNOW anything about getting rid of past tax debt. I had to research, learn and school him about getting rid of our past tax debt. He will not work for you. In the end our 5 year chapter 13 case that was converted to a chapter 7 was DISMISSED all together. Needed to hire another BK attorney to to clean up the mess and get a fresh start. He and hs assistant do not answer the phone, emails go unanswered and when his back is up against the wall and he feels threatened we were to blame. I wish that we kept better records of all of our interactions with his practice so we could hold him accountable for malpractice. Once he gets you in the door (if you are lucky enough to have your call answered) and takes your money you will not see or speak to him again unless he needs something from you. Works very odd hours, not available if emergency comes up. Need I say more??? STAY AWAY!!!
