Client beware

I hired this attorney for a personal injury case. In the beginning he told me that my case was solid and was likely to get $100k+. Over 18 months into the case and I talked to him maybe 2 times. He doesn't put any time into your case. He does not return phone calls. The deposition was a nightmare and... he cancelled at the last minute the first time. The second time he was not prepared or didn't even know what was going on. After getting nothing but the run around I went to other attorneys and none would take my case because they told me I didn't have a case. They told that this attorney has a poor reputation for taking anything and that I would be lucky to get $2500. If I knew that I wouldn't have filed a civil suit.

Andy, I am not sure if you have the correct attorney. It is possible my firm generally represented you, because the only Andy I can find in my history was handled by another attorney in my firm. I am sorry that you feel that your result or treatment/handling of your case was not ideal. I would never provide a prediction about recovery of $100k+, regardless of the factual and claim scenario, and am sorry that you have felt that your case was somehow mishandled by whatever other attorney you were dealing with, because I sincerely doubt that it was me. Regardless, if you still feel that this issue is something worth discussing, I am open to discussing it, and figuring out whether you were actually a client of mine for the issues you experienced. Regards, Stephen

Excellent Accident Attorney

I was in a minor accident that caused whiplash and neck pain. I didn't have the time or energy to fill out paper work or fight the insurance company. By the time I decided to get a lawyer there were only 2 months left to file a claim. I sent all my bills and info to Stephen and he got the insurance c...ompany to pay all my medical bills along with 5,000 cash in pocket!! We didn't even have to go to trial. Considering how much time I gave him and how minor the accident was that was a huge win. He was very personable and the kind of person you want on your side of an argument.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
