Don't bother
Had no knowledge of how to handle my case. Couldn't even figure out the value of my home. Did not use evidence given to him. I had to point things out to him. He stood with his hands in his pockets during the hearings.
"Oliver is an outstanding attorney who knows his stuff. He has a personal charisma, and relates well to clients from all backgrounds. But, more important, he has a head on his shoulders and can think on his feet. We hired him almost six years ago, and he quickly became our most sought-after associate, whom clients request by name."
"I endorse this lawyer. Oliver is a hard worker, well versed in the law and always going the extra mile for his clients. Oliver has a vast amount of experience he brings to the table."
