DON'T HIRE HIM!

#1. U HAVE TO WAIT THE WHOLE DAY IN ORDER TO SEE HIM. They put u in the list at 9am,and the lawyer gets in around 11am,they call u to c him around 2 or 3 pm. I've been there like 7 different times and it is always like that. #2. Once he gets ur money,it is almost impossible to see him again. They al...ways give u appointments to c him but he never shows up. They always call u to cancel. U must to go there on saturdays or sundays, wait since 9 am 'til 2 or 3 pm to c him, but only if u give them money, otherwise they won't let u get in. #3. When he first meet u, he's tells u wonderful things about ur case that make u feel safe,but once he gets ur money and take the case u won't c him again. He's never in the office,all those bunch of girls in that office act like if he is a ghost.They never have an aswer.U always get out feeling the frustration. #4. He's always tired,and sleepy.He just want to take cases to make money,once he gets the case he don't care about u anymore.U must to keep going there,calling every day,and making appointments that they always cancel. And if finally u can c in on the weekend, he tells u to come during the week if u r not a new customer! And during the week it is impossible to get in touch w/him!!! #5. Don't hire this man.Get a lawyer that is able to handle a reasonable amount of customers.William just wants to get new customers,more and more all the time but he's not able to handle all of his customers,because he has too many to deal with.
