Did Nothing

Did nothing more than answering a cuple of letters, hes rude and doesnt pay attention to his cases, he didnt even know what was going on with my case at some point, obviously i lost, specially the money i payed him, dont trust this guy

TERRIBLE lawyer.

TERRIBLE lawyer as properly stated in another review. I hired him to handle a general issue. He did nothing more than an hours work. He kept all money paid up front. Getting past her to talk with the lawyer was very difficult, she was very rude. Nice at first meet, not professional. (and probably not... legal) He was paid a nice retainer up front, did not do his job, did not return any money, refused an accounting of time spent working the case. Hire someone else.

TERRIBLE lawyer

TERRIBLE lawyer. You'd be better off representing yourself than hire this guy. Hiring Neil is like throwing money into a black hole...he REALLY is that BAD and dishonest in that he'll promise you the world and not do a damn thing after he's got your money. And, this isn't a case of if an attorney win...s he's great, and if he loses he's terrible. This guy is just the WORST.

Bad lawyer

Bad experience, non communication and overcharge. Charges his secretary time as his own. Made a mistake filling the case and lies about it. Never trust his words and if you have a misfortune dealing with him, put everything in writing. Fired him, lost the money. Typical bad lawyer.
