Do Not Use This Guy

He missed court dates, did not return calls in a timely fashion, when I asked questions he got upset and refused to answer my questions. This is a 0 or of 10. Do not use him unless you want trouble with your case. Several time I had to call the court and do his job for him...the Trustee was amazed... at the way he handled my case.

PLEASE, DO NOT USE THIS LAWYER!!

Bankruptcy attorney Edward Medina failed me. He is unprofessional, he is unresponsive, and he owes me money. I used to be the proud owner of a small business in downtown San Diego, My business failed in early 2010 as a result of the recession. Consequently, I chose to file bankruptcy. During an in...itial consultation with Mr. Medina, he was courteous and empathetic. On March 16, 2010, I hired him and paid a retainer. A short time later, circumstances prevented me from being able to file. I called Mr. Medina and requested a refund of the unused portion of the retainer. For weeks, I left voice messages at his work and cell phones, but he did not reply. I finally received a voice message from Mr. Medina, but that wasn't until I'd shared my intention to file a complaint with the State Bar. That was the last time I heard from him, despite my continuous efforts to make contact. For nearly a year, Mr. Medina has refused to return the unused portion of my retainer. He has ignored my efforts to resolve the situation. Be forewarned.
